When you’re on your bike you need to be ready for anything, and that’s particularly the case with the weather. Even a bright sunny day can turn to rain – particularly in hilly or mountainous terrain. But with its fully waterproof GORE-TEX® construction, the Women's Tempesta Lite Jacket keeps out both biting wind and heavy rain. It packs down to the size of half a pocket, meaning you’re not sacrificing too much space when you want a ‘just in case’ jacket. Excellent breathability also means you’re not going to get drenched in sweat when the pace of your ride increases or you hit stiff climbs. There’s a smooth sliding YKK® Vislon® waterproof zipper, keeping you in control of ventilation and temperature control too. The fit is close to the body, but with stretchy GORE-TEX® Topo across the back, it gives space to fit over full jersey pockets beneath. Wrist gaiters are also used to work well with gloves and seal out the elements. Lastly, reflective elements make you easier to spot as dark clouds roll through.

Excellent breathability also means you’re not going to get drenched in sweat when the pace of your ride increases or you hit stiff climbs. There’s a smooth sliding YKK® Vislon® waterproof zipper, keeping you in control of ventilation and temperature control too. The fit is close to the body, but with stretchy GORE-TEX® Topo across the back, it gives space for full pockets (and yes, accommodates the few extra kilos of winter weight). Wrist gaiters are also used to work well with gloves and seal out the elements. Lastly, reflective elements make it easier to spot you as dark clouds roll through.
The front and sleeves of the jacket are constructed using the windproof, GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ X-Mid, while a warm fleece fabric at the back works to regulate your temperature, allowing excess moisture and heat escape. The fit of the Castelli Transition Jacket allows for an additional, insulating base-layer underneath, providing you with extra warmth if the temperatures drop. For essentials and valuables, the 3 rear pockets provide ample room and easy access, while the full-length, asymmetrical YKK® Vislon® zipper, lets you regulate your ventilation quickly and easily. Whether it's taking on spring intervals or enjoying an autumnal endurance ride, the super-light Women's Transition Jacket provides the ideal balance of warmth and breathability across a range of conditions. Care Instructions: Always read the care label before washing a piece of clothing. Hang-dry or dry flat. Do not tumble dry.
The Aria Shell Jacket is all about bringing the classic windproof jacket right up to date. This high-performance windproof outer layer now matches the rest of your highly functional cycling kit. Gone are the oversize fit and flappy, poor breathing fabrics. In their place are an ultralight windproof woven microfiber front and mesh side panels. These work in harmony to keep out cold winds but offer extremely good breathability too. No cold air can slip inside and yet any sweat you build-up can escape, the result being a perfect temperature when riding. The fit is a revelation compared to jackets of old too. The stretch panels to the sides and back of the sleeves give it a second-skin fit more akin to a race jersey. Less fabric to catch the wind. Less drag. More efficient cycling. A win all-round. In cool to mild conditions, you can keep it on all ride, but if the day warms up it's easily folded up to stuff in your jersey pocket. This is definitely not your old-style wind jacket.
Taking their exemplary Alpha ROS 2 jacket and adding Polartec® Alpha® active insulation, the Alpha Ultimate Insulated Jacket sets a new benchmark for winter cycling jackets. If you’re serious about your winter training, it’s essential. Polartec® Alpha® Warmth without weight is made possible thanks to the Polartec® Alpha® active insulation. Created specifically for highly aerobic activities, Alpha® gives you incredible warmth while maintaining superb moisture control. As your efforts rise and fall in synchrony with the terrain, it keeps you brilliantly comfortable. Two-Layer Construction The outer layer is made from waterproof Polartec® NeoShell®. With its four-way stretch, it gives a snug but flexible fit for efficient pedalling while preventing rain from getting inside. Critical seams are taped externally to prevent water from seeping in. It’s breathable too, preventing excess sweat build-up. Separate to the outer is the insulated Alpha layer mentioned above. This features its own zipper separate from the zipper of the outer layer. This lets you choose how you want to ventilate and regulate temperature. During a climb or hard efforts open up the outer to boost airflow. This keeps you drier and sweat-free for when you zip back up for the fast downhill or you back off the pace. Performance Features All the details needed for a comfortable winter ride have been honed. A no-sew bonded waist hem gives a snug and flat fit. Anatomic cuffs work with winter gloves to fully seal out the elements. And reflective Reflex details keep you more visible in low light.
Rain or Shine. Road and Off-Road. Part of the versatile Rain or Shine (ROS) and Unlimited families, the Women's Unlimited Perfetto ROS 2 Jacket covers a wide range of riding conditions when you’re heading off the beaten track. Excellent breathability ensures comfort in drier milder conditions while wet conditions are combatted with the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. Women’s Perfetto. Part 2. The ‘2’ in the title signifies several key improvements compared to its predecessor. You now have the convenience of a two-way YKK® Vislon® zipper to the front, making it easy to ventilate from the bottom while keeping your chest covered. Reflective details have also been made more visible. Seams at the top of the shoulder have been repositioned to the back out of the way of the weather. Pockets have also been made larger to hold more gear. While the fit remained focused on smooth performance, there’s now a bit more space across the chest, shoulders and biceps. Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® Lightly fleeced water-resistant INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® faces the worst of the weather across the front, blocking wind and rain. A lighter and stretchy version covers the back for greater breathability. And because there’s no membrane needed it’s far more breathable than most winter jackets. And because your drier you need fewer layers underneath. Pop on a thinner base layer for milder weather or an insulating layer when it’s freezing cold. You decide. If you do find yourself feeling a touch too warm, zipped chest vents allow you to dump heat and introduce some extra airflow.
Taking the all-over protection of the Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket and adding zip off sleeves, the Perfetto ROS 2 Convertible Jacket is Castelli’s most versatile cycling jacket yet. However, rather than converting to a vest, the sleeves zip off just above the elbows, becoming effectively identical to a Gabba. Weather Protection. No Matter What. Whether worn long or short, the ROS Convertible offers effective all-over windproof and water-repellent protection via two types of Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER®. More protective to the front and more breathable to the rear, it offers versatile protection for whatever the day has in store. With different base layers underneath, you can cover everything from mild conditions to cold days, whether sunny or wet, living up to its ROS (Rain or Shine) moniker. Performance Features When you’re picking up the pace, the zippered ventilation to the sides of the chest comes in most handy. A two-way YKK® Vislon® zipper also lets you control airflow with ease. Taped shoulders prevent water ingress in an area that faces the brunt of the weather. 3 rear pockets also make space for essentials and a place to stash sleeves mid-ride. And for rides that stretch deep into the dark of evening, reflective details keep you visible.
With no training pencilled in and time to relax and enjoy not having to hit power numbers, you can get outside in comfort with the Riscalda Puffy Jacket. A windproof nylon shell prevents the bite of cold winds from getting through. And it’s got a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish too, protecting against light rain showers. Inside, Castelli have used Polartec® Alpha® Direct. This soft and fluffy insulation feels great and despite its low bulk and low weight, provides excellent warmth. An internal waist-gaiter can be used to seal in warmth and seal out the elements too. And if you need to get some air inside, a two-way zipper makes it simple and easy.
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. 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.
