Castelli Flight Jacket AirCastelli's lightest, most breathable and fastest winter jacket, the Flight Air Jacket is ideally suited to higher-paced riding in cooler weather. Polartec® Alpha® insulation deals with colder temperatures too. There are days on the bike where a jersey, gilet and arm-warmers just aren't enough but a heavyweight winter jacket is just too much. The Flight Jacket Air has been created to bridge that performance gap.Made from a stretch-woven fabric, it blocks most of the wind. But enough makes it through to your base layer to speed up sweat evaporation so you're left drier and more comfortable. A water-repellent finish also provides protection during damp days where low clouds and mist hang in the air. On the inside, Castelli deploys Polartec® Alpha® insulation across the chest, sleeves and upper back. In combination with the partially windproof outer, it offers adaptable warmth with a minimal weight penalty and the benefit of excellent breathability too. While aerodynamics isn’t a primary concern in winter, the Flight Jacket Air is still cut close to the body for speedy performance. This lets you slip through the air easier and saves some precious energy as you’re not being dragged back by flapping fabric.An easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper makes it quick and simple to regulate airflow and temperature. 3 back pockets can be loaded up for a day on the saddle. And with reflective details, you’ll be visible when the daylight begins to wane.Features:Materials: 78% Polyester, 22% ElastaneNano Flex Light woven fabric all around partially blocks wind, but lack of a membrane guarantees maximum breathabilityPolartec® Alpha® active insulation on chest, sleeves, and upper back for extra warmthYKK® Vislon® zipper covered to keep the wind outStretch sleeve ending easily tucks into a glove or can cover glove wrists to keep out the coldClose-to-body fit3 rear pocketsWater-repellent finishReflective detailing on the backWeight: 249gSuggested Temperature range: 6 to 15 degrees CBuy Castelli Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
For days when a jersey, gilet and arm-warmers just won’t cut it, but then again a full winter jacket is an overkill, the Flight Jacket Air comes into its own. The stretch-woven fabric blocks much of the wind, but enough can get through to quickly evaporate away sweat. A water-repellent finish is also ideal when roads are damp and there’s drizzle hanging in the air. Across the inside of the chest, sleeves and upper back you’ll find Polartec® Alpha® insulation. This works well with the partially windproof outer, providing warmth without any sacrifice to flexibility, weight and breathability.

The lightest, fastest, and most breathable jacket, great for high-intensity rides or staying at the right temperature in cool conditions. Membraneless, with Polartec® Alpha® insulation. Nano Flex Light woven fabric all around partially blocks wind, but lack of a membrane guarantees maximum breathability Polartec® Alpha® active insulation on chest, sleeves, and upper back for extra warmth YKK® Vislon® zipper covered to keep wind out Stretch sleeve ending easily tucks into glove or can cover glove wrist to keep out the cold Close-to-body fit 3 rear pockets Water-repellent finish Reflective detailing on back. This is the jacket for going fast on those in-between days when it's too warm for a jacket and too cold for a jersey. Traditionally, you might have used a vest and arm warmers on a day like this, but this jacket does it better. Rather than blocking all the wind on the body, the stretch woven fabric lets a small amount of air through. It blocks enough air that you don't get cold but lets enough through to keep you drier. Working together with the outer fabric is Polartec® Alpha® insulation in key areas to nearly weightlessly add more warmth without reducing breathability. The jacket is cut close to body, making it our most aerodynamic jacket. Not that that you need aerodynamics in the winter, but we're firm believers in Fast Is Fun. The close fit also makes it warmer than the minimalist fabrics would normally allow. Other features are strictly rider focused: The easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper makes one-hand ventilation simple. Three rear pockets have plenty of room for whatever you need on long rides. It's cut short to not bunch up in the front or back. Reflective details help you be seen. The fabric is water repellent to keep splashes and brief showers at bay.

Next-level fabric technology makes this jersey faster, water repellent, and warmer even though it's lighter. Like an Aero Race Jersey for cool conditions.

We've used the Nano Flex Light stretch woven fabric on the back of Perfetto vests and Beta jackets for a few years now. A tightly woven fabric, it keeps a lot of the wind out while being relatively thin and compact. And the lack of a membrane means that much more moisture can escape. Now we bring this fabric into a jersey that is lightweight yet surprisingly warm thanks to the way it keeps more wind out than a traditional jersey. We line the front of the jersey with a fabric that comes straight from our technical base layers for a little added warmth and to help move moisture away from your body. This jersey actually covers a wider range of temperatures than our traditional knit jerseys. Use it with a light sleeveless base layer for mild days, with a light long-sleeve base layer for moderate days, or with a Flanders Warm or Miracolo base layer and vest to stay comfortable in surprisingly cool temperatures. The stretch woven fabric is aerodynamic, and we give this jersey a close-to-body fit. Think of it as your Aero Race Jersey for spring and fall days.
