Be it a chilly morning start or a long mountain descent, the Squadra Stretch Cycling Jacket is easily pulled on to keep you protected from the effects of cool breezes. Coated ripstop nylon provides wind protection to the front and to the back it'll fend off the tyre spray from damp roads too. Tightly knitted side panels give the jacket some stretch, keeping the fit as flap free as possible while also being great for a wide range of body shapes. A high-cut collar lessens the chances of cold winds getting in and a longer back adds coverage over your shorts or winter tights. Reflective details to the chest and tail make you easier to spot as the light fades. Simple, effective and offering great value, the Squadra stretch is also easily packed away when conditions improve.
Rather than get too complicated, Castelli have focused on just the essentials you need in a lightweight rain jacket. Made from Deluge Light 2.5-layer waterproof fabric, the Emergency Rain Jacket achieves a 10,000mm waterproof rating. A waterproof front zipper and sealed seams also keep water ingress and seepage at bay. An extended tail prevents a soaking from rear wheel spray and the long sleeves provide a smooth fit and one that works well with gloves. The only real compromise is it's not quite as breathable as more expensive jackets in the Castelli line. To prevent you from wasting energy and to stop excess flapping material when cycling, Castelli have tailored the jacket with a snug fit. But with some slight stretch in the fabric, you’ll still be able to move easily and it will fit over a winter thermal jersey or jacket too. If and when the rain passes then it folds up into an integrated stuff pocket, making it easy to pop in a jersey pocket.
Fitting comfortably over your normal everyday clothing, the Women’s Commuter Reflex Jacket at first glance looks like a subtle and stylish rain jacket that is great with office attire or casual wear. However, it’s also designed to perform brilliantly on the bike, with the reflex fabric being the standout feature. At night reflective elements across the whole jacket come alive when caught in headlamps and the glow of streetlights. By day, those same elements are barely discernible. . No odd-looking reflective strips and panels here However, it's not just visibility where this jacket shines. The functional fabric also offers outstanding waterproof performance, rated with a 20,000 mm water column to keep the rain out and taped seams to stop any water ingress. Just as important for cycling is its excellent breathability. A 20,000 MVTR breathability rating means less sweat build-up and a fresher feeling when you arrive at your destination. Ventilation comes by the way of a gaiter at the waist, allowing you to seal in warmth or open for extra airflow. The gaiter also allows for a more natural fit with everyday clothing and gives a refined fit both on and off the bike.
Two-wheeled escapades, be it one day or multi-days on the bike, can see you tackling the plunging temperatures of night riding and higher elevations, through to the warmth of valley roads and cosy campsite fires. If you love nothing more than grabbing your bike and heading off to discover some new roads and trails, with rides stretching from sunrise and sunset, the Women’s Unlimited Puffy Cycling Jacket is for you. Warm when you need it. And easily packable when you don’t. The first line of weather protection is a windproof outer.

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.

The Go Cycling Jacket makes use of the same GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® three-layer stretch fabric as their iconic Alpha ROS 2 jacket. However, it forgoes the Alpha’s integrated insulating layer, allowing you to tailor your base layer weight and insulation levels precisely, bringing you comfort across a wide variety of temperatures. With the INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® preventing cold winds from robbing body heat, you’ll soon feel, and hold onto, the warmth you generate through riding. It’s highly breathable too, so a sudden injection of pace or a stiff climb won’t result in you being soaked in sweat. Lastly, water resistance also keeps off light rain and road spray. With weather protection taken care of, next comes the Castelli fit. The tailoring ensures a close, streamlined fit, but one with some space for layering and to be suitable for all shapes and sizes. A no-sew hem gives the jacket a smooth elegantly technical finish while hidden internal cuffs at the wrist boost comfort by eliminating drafts. Three rear pockets give plenty of space to load up for your longest of rides and a large reflective strip across the bottom ensures you’re visible when training finishes after dark. Similar in warmth to a Perfetto ROS Long Sleeve, the Go Cycling Jacket gets a slightly more relaxed fit and a more tailored look for those of you not in race mode. Stretchy, comfortable, breathable, windproof, water-resistant, elegant, and lightweight, this jacket has it all. Get out and Go.
