Made from a light stretch rib knit polyester, the Prosecco Tech Long Sleeve Base Layer is body-mapped to provide perfect temperature regulation. Castelli's Prosecco hydrophilic treatment is applied, ensuring any sweat build-up is quickly and efficiently wicked away from the skin. In areas where your shorts or tights overlap, around the waist and bib straps, lighter-weight PrimaLoft® fabric is deployed, balancing out insulation levels so you don't overheat. A crew-neck also makes it easy to wear with low-collar jerseys.

Autumn and spring are fabulous times to ride a bike. But the weather is so hard to predict and achieving the right balance of warmth, breathability and weather protection is difficult - you'll often end up too warm or too cold. However, the Beta ROS Jacket makes it easy. Using a mix of lightweight and stretchy fabrics it cuts out most of the wind, remains extremely breathable and should rain strike offers surprisingly good water protection. Facing into the weather, the front panels and upper sleeves use Polartec® NeoShell®. This is windproof, waterproof and breathable, striking the balance you need when the weather changes from good to bad from one moment to the next. Across the back Castelli use their Nano Flex Light woven fabric. This prioritises breathability, keeping you dry and sweat-free when you're pushing hard on the pedals or the day warms up. It is also windproof and splashproof, for all-ride comfort. Castelli tailors the Beta with a race-bred fit, perfect for fast autumn and spring rides and smooth efficiency when tackling rolling terrain. No flapping fabric to sap energy, leaving more watts for the job at hand, riding and training hard. When it comes to features there's nothing unnecessary either. Three rear pockets offer space for nutrition and spares, a reflective panel keeps visibility up during evening training sessions and a full-length front zip makes it quick and easy to control ventilation.
Created to provide reliable protection in most conditions, apart from the very heaviest of rain, the ROS 2 Overshoes use a Polartec® Power Stretch® fleece lined front to keep cold winds out. To the sides, 3-layer fleece-backed waterproof panels resist drizzle and spray from damp roads. A YKK® water-resistant zipper makes them easy to pull on and off while not compromising the protection levels. And for low-light cycling, the reflective heel tab gives greater visibility to other road users.
Now into its third generation, the Alpha ROS 2 Jacket gets a few tweaks here and there, for example, re-engineered double layer cuffs to sit snugly both inside and outside your winter gloves. Enhanced fabrics offer increased breathability but with improved waterproofness too. Clever design details, such as seam-sealed shoulders and seams, moved out of direct water flow, shut water out yet provide ample breathability and ventilation too. Of course, it still retains all the best features that you love too, including the innovative two-layer construction. Rain Out. Warmth in. The Alpha RoS 2 Jacket, just like its predecessors, makes it far easier to dress for a wide range of conditions. With the RoS (Rain or Shine) design you'll enjoy a best-in-class garment for dry, cold weather but it also offers protection should it rain. In light, but not incessant rain, or a sharp rain shower there's no need to immediately have to reach for another waterproof jacket layer. The Rain or Shine system utilises Gore® INFINIUM™ Windstopper® 150 fabric for wind protection and the high breathability and effective protection required to ride in the rain. Castelli also incorporates its Alpha construction. This separates the wind/water protection layer from the insulating layer. The result is you have better control of ventilation, letting you open the outer layer while protecting your core and better moisture evaporation overall. The RoS jacket is unlike any other that allows you to ride from low-temperature conditions right through to wet and mild conditions. Performance Fit and Features Stretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for an excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types. A raw-edge waist that lies flat and moves with you plus the Castelli silicone text gripper at your waist keeps the jacket from riding up. 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus an extra pocket with waterproof zip make for a very practical jacket with plenty of storage space. For those of you seeking the ultimate in versatile all-weather, multi-season cycling protection you really need not look any further. Think of this as taking all your winter kit options and distilling it into one incredible do-it-all garment. We think you'll find it's worth every penny.
Come autumn, winter and spring you can face a wide range of conditions when you head out on your bike. And your efforts can range from slow and steady miles to high-intensity interval training. Here, getting your kit just right can be tricky. But this is where the Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket excels. The Perfect Balance Achieving the perfect harmony between warmth, breathability and weather-protection is made possible via the unique double-layer construction. Inside, a Prosecco Strada inner liner with 2nd front zip works to move sweat off the skin and prevent you from getting wet and chilly when working hard. Meanwhile, the front of the Alpha Light uses Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150, highly breathable and windproof material with excellent water-repellency, fending off mist, drizzle and road spray. An outer zip lets you open the outer for extra ventilation while the inner can remain zipped up to keep your core protected. Meanwhile, the back uses Nano Flex Xtra Dry, with nanotechnology water-repellent finish, providing a boost to breathability and air-exchange. When the pace increases and effort levels rise you'll be happy to find you don't end up drenched in sweat. Fit and Features The advanced patterning makes for an excellent close-to-body fit, the extra stretch at the waist keeping the fit sleek while a raw-edge waist lies flat and moves with you. Finished with a Castelli silicone text gripper at the waist, it keeps that jersey/jacket from riding up. Three rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus a front zippered pocket take care of all your storage needs. It may be called a jacket but it's so much more. For your more intense rides in wetter and changeable weather or for cool days of steady miles then the warmth, breathability and wet weather protection strike just the right balance to keep you dry and comfy all ride.

First thing you'll notice when you pull the Tutto Nano on is the snug stretch fit. This is thanks to the highly flexible Nano Flex 3G fabric, as found in Castelli's superb Sorpasso tights. This close fit not only saves precious energy but less flapping boosts warmth too. Speaking of warmth, the fleece inner is great at trapping body heat and the tighter knit of the fabric lets less air through than traditional thermal jersey fabrics, enhancing warmth still further. Next comes Castelli’s proprietary nanotechnology water-repellent finish. When you're cycling in the dry you'll not notice it. However, on a damp and drizzly autumn day, it comes into its own, fending off light rain and wet roads, keeping you comfortable for longer. Spring and autumn days are shorter and so you'll also be pleased to find 360° reflectivity, keeping you visible as the night draws in. An easy-sliding KK® Vislon® zipper with rubberized pull and the silicone gripper elastic finish the jersey in style. If you're looking to upgrade your cool-weather cycling kit, the Tutto Nano ROS Jersey is a great place to start. Compared to a traditional thermal jersey it's a definite step up in performance.
Winter is when you'll be outside, getting the hours done, the miles ticked off and building a solid base of fitness for spring and summer. And with the Women's Sorpasso ROS (Rain or Shine) Bib Tights you can go out in most conditions and get your training done in comfort. Nano Flex Technology For the majority of the tight, Castelli uses their brilliant Nano Flex 3G fabric. It offers both incredible warmth and excellent water-repellency via third-generation nanotechnology fabric treatment. And it has a superb level of flexibility too, so the tights never feel restrictive. But not just that, the fabric is also highly breathable so you don't feel clammy when you're working hard. In areas most exposed to the weather and in need of extra protection, namely the upper front panels, thighs and across the back, you'll find Nano Flex Xtra Dry deployed. This adds both extra warmth and windproof protection while also boosting water-repellency. Sleek Fit While the fabrics may take centre stage, the fit of the Sorpasso tights is also worth admiring. Anatomic patterning gives a perfect fit at the hips and knees, delivering smooth pedalling flexibility in and out of the saddle. At the upper body, the lie-flat bib straps hold tight but soon disappear from your mind. And then there's the fabulously comfortable women's Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad to make even the longest rides comfortable. Women's Donna Progetto X² Air Seat Pad The pro-level Donna Progetto X2 Air Seatpad utilises ventilating perforations to keep you cooler and drier on endurance road rides. The design allows air and moisture to flow directly to the surface fabric for quick evaporation maintaining dryness. The seat pad is constructed in 3 layer components, each dedicated to a specific purpose to create the most comfortable seat pad available. There are no better tights to pull on in winter to keep you motivated to rack up those base-building miles. Come rain or shine you'll be ready to roll in comfort.

The Best Just Got Better When it comes to racing and training in the cold and wet the Women's Gabba jersey has always been a favourite, excelling thanks to the balance of breathability and weather-protection but Castelli, as always have improved the performance even further. The Gabba becomes Gabba ROS - Rain or Shine. Working with Gore they developed two unique GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ fabrics; fleece-backed windproof INFINIUM™ 205 is used to the front and gives a significant boost to rain protection while doing a brilliant job of keeping out cold winds and keeping in body heat. To the back, GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ 203 Stretch is lighter, more breathable but still remarkably water-repellent, a real improvement on the previous Gabba, ensuring you don't feel the dreaded clamminess of sweat build-up. Taped shoulder seams also boost performance in the rain. The Gabba ROS, Rain or Shine, is now more waterproof, more breathable and better fitting than ever, letting you laugh in the face of foul weather. It's the Details that Count Details also count when you're cycling through the cold and wet. The YKK® Vislon® zipper is covered to keep out the elements, a dropped tail, with a large reflective panel, keeps wheel spray off and boosts visibility as daylight fades and the two larger rear pockets make accessing essentials easier, even with gloves on - no more fumbling for all important gels. It's difficult to improve upon a classic but that never stops Castelli from trying. With their Limited Edition Gabba Rain or Shine, they have pushed cycling performance to new heights yet again, letting you enjoy the ride no matter what mother nature has in store
