The top rated winter jacket, bringing warmth, breathability and a high level of rain protection along with a soft, comfortable fit. his jacket leads the way in demonstrating how a winter jacket should perform. Rain or Shine engineering makes this our best jacket ever for dry conditions while also providing significant rain protection GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150 fabric for wind protection with high breathability and effective rain protection Reduced seaming with seam sealing on shoulders reduces chances for water to enter through stitching Double-layer Alpha construction separates insulating layer from wind/water barrier to let you better regulate ventilation Water-resistant YKK® Vislon® zipper slides easily for better regulation of airflow Raw-edge waist with silicone gripper lies flat and seals out wind Double-layer cuff integrates with glove to prevent cold wind or water from entering at wrist Stretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types Back ventilation 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes Zippered secure side pocket for valuables. Cyclingnews.com says this jacket is sets an all-new benchmark in what a winter cycling jacket can achieve and it's exactly what we think the perfect winter jacket should be. We started with a list of things we didn't like about the current jackets and set out to solve them—and in the process made our best jacket ever. The first issue to resolve related to moisture management. Even the best of the currently available fabrics provide a good level of breathability but can't keep up with the sweat generated during high-intensity riding. So we invented a double-layer construction that allows you to open an outer wind-protection layer while keeping the insulation layer closed and thereby allowing airflow inside the jacket to evacuate moisture while avoiding direct contact with the skin. On a long climb we'll completely open the outer layer to allow moisture to escape, and when we start the descent we close the outer layer and are completely dry inside. It works so well that sometimes it feels like magic. New for this year is a softer, warmer 3D insulation-layer fabric that provides better warmth, moisture management and fit. Next we focused on the openings: neck, waist and, most of all, wrists. The neck comes up high and is shaped to move with you, whether you're standing or in an aero position being a January hero and attacking your mates. For the waist we've created a stretch layer with a silicone bead that lies flat and completely seals out wind without bunching or riding up. New for this year is a brand-new double-layer wrist opening with an inner layer to go under your glove that seals tight to your wrist, and an outer layer that goes over your glove so that any rain will roll down the outside of the glove and not end up inside. Of course, the ultimate jacket will also hold up well in wet conditions, so we used GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabric along with waterproof seam taping on critical seams around the shoulder. Other seams are hidden out of direct water flow, and the water-repellent treatment on the fabric is sufficient to prevent most moisture from entering. We call it essentially waterproof, using our own subjective judgment to find a balance between water protection, breathability and comfort. It doesn't mean that no drop will ever come in, but we do longish rides in real rain and stay completely dry. All these features make it a favorite of our staff and most of our ambassadors, and the most versatile performance jacket for cold-weather training we've ever created.

Theres a lot of technology that goes into the Entrata Jersey. While technically the entry-level jersey in the Castelli collection, it has been engineered to incorporate as much race-level performance as possible while still offering unmatched value.|It benefits from the aero learnings from Castellis race R&D through the one-piece sleeves with aero-optimized seaming. Not only is it aerodynamic, its also more comfortable thanks to the four-way-stretch Air Mesh fabric and raw-cut sleeve ending thats stretchy to fit every arm without constricting. The main body fabric is just the right weight to keep you cool, while the ProSecco treatment carries away moisture to keep you dry. Its stretchy for great fit and provides UPF 30 sun protection, filtering 97% of UV rays. Thoughtful design and functional details abound, like the stretch panel in the center pocket, the highly reflective insert on the pocket, the full-length easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper, and the silicone gripper elastic to keep the back of the jersey in place. Italian-made ProSecco body fabric with hydrophilic treatment to wick moisture away from your body Air Mesh sleeves in modified raglan pattern provide more comfort and better aerodynamics Raw-cut sleeve endings lie flat and never constrict Full-length easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper 3 rear pockets, with center pocket with extra stretch insert and reflective panel Silicone gripper elastic at waist 16-38°C / 61-100°F Weight: 148 g
The best sock we've ever made for performance cycling. Cool mesh, padded forefoot, compression midfoot, and even a reflective tab at the back. Rosso Corsa is back.
When Castelli engineered the first aero jersey for road racing back in 2006, everyone thought we were crazy. Back then, aero was only for TTs. Performance clothing meant moisture management. And you could win the Tour de France with a baggy jersey that was little more than a polyester T-shirt. Even our aerodynamic consultants expected limited gains, so we named the jersey Split Second, though, like now, we thought even small gains were worth pursuing. In the end the gains were pretty substantial, and we completely revolutionized the look of the pro peloton. We're now on the sixth major revision of our aero jersey. Each generation has become more aero and better fitting. The Aero Race 6.0 benefits heavily from CFD analysis of wake flow in the riding position for fabric and seam placement. It also benefits from pro riders' feedback, as we've worked to make the jersey comfortable for their long hours of training and then racing in every possible weather condition. CFD-based fabric placement and seam construction Engineered for aero efficiency at 30 to 55 km/h Airflow shoulder construction Velocity Rev2 fabric on front and sleeve 3D mesh back for breathability Elbow-length stretch sleeves with raw-cut edge YKK® Vislon® zipper Drop tail allows perfect pocket placement while keeping jersey fitting well at waist 18-35°C / 64-95°F Weight: 109 g
Just as the name says, the Castelli Emergency 2 Rain Jacket is the go-to for emergency rain protection. Castelli has made the jacket completely waterproof with a 10,000mm water column rating. It is compact enough to take up only half a jersey pocket, so you can stash it away with ease and it wont take up too much cargo room. The jacket has a slight stretch and has a superb on-bike fit with enough room to still fit over a Gabba or any thicker winter jacket. The Emergency 2 has all the trappings. A waterproof zipper seals out the rain, a long tail provides extra coverage, the wrist closures fit over gloves, and the 360 reflectivity makes this an ideal friend on dark country lanes or when commuting through the city. The only compromise Castelli has made with this jacket is it is less breathable than its topflight rain jackets. The reason? Simply to make this jacket more affordable. Available in a mute military green for those seeking an understated look or high vis orange for some welcome visibility. Key Features Deluge Light 2.5-layer waterproof fabric with 10,000mm water column Slight stretch for excellent fit in riding position Folds into half a jersey pocket Stuff pocket integrated into mesh vent at top of back Waterproof zipper and contrast seam sealing water out 360 reflectivity 6 18C / 43 64F Weight: 149g (M)
