Should the majority of your winter training be in cold but dry conditions and at lower intensities to build your aerobic base, the Dinamica 2 Jacket has the performance you’ll fully appreciate. The all-over Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast is completely impervious to wind, preventing heat loss from windchill. Inside, the fleece face hugs warmth close to the body while excellent breathability prevents you from getting too hot and sweaty. While it’s not waterproof, a water-repellent finish will mean you don’t have to reach immediately for a rain jacket when there’s light rain or damp roads. Carefully considered details abound too. A smooth sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper, with scorpion puller for easy use with gloves, makes it easy to zip open for extra ventilation. Double-layer cuffs at the wrists ensure a perfect interface with your gloves, keeping out the elements.
The Women's Emergency Rain Jacket gives you a waterproof rating of 10,000 mm water column that resists light rain and showers extremely well. It's not designed for an all-day rain ride but it's just right for stowing in a jersey pocket for those emergency situations. The only real compromise compared to Castelli's top-of-the-line offerings is in breathability but that's not so key for a passing shower. The fit as with all Castelli garments is refined and tuned to be just right when on the bike. It's close to lessen flapping but it's still roomy enough to slip on over your Gabba, the slight amount of fabric stretch helping you to layer underneath. For your riding days when you're just not sure if you'll get hit by a heavy shower, this jacket is easily stowed in a pocket just in case. It's so light and easy to stow there's no reason not to take it with you.
The Women's 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.

The Women's Perfetto Light ROS Jacket is their lightest windproof jersey but it's not just about keeping the wind out, the jersey is also exceptionally breathable and for this season gets a boost to rain protection too. Using Castelli exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ 203 Stretch lightweight fabric to the front and sleeves you'll find you have greater levels of protection in light rain and showers, letting you concentrate on powering the pedals should the clouds burst open. However, even in poor weather, cycling will soon build up heat and with it comes sweat too, a real mood killer if not dealt with quickly. To keep cold and clammy sweat from spoiling your ride the back of the jersey is made with Castelli's Nano Flex Light Woven fabric, a highly breathable material that allows vapour to escape before causing you discomfort. Nano Flex Light Woven is also more water-repellent than its predecessor adding to the versatility of this brilliant Women's Perfetto Light ROS Jacket. Details also count hugely towards on the bike comfort and here the YKK® Vislon® zipper is easy to use when you need extra ventilation, a Gabba style dropped tail, with a large reflective panel, keeps wheel spray off and boosts visibility as daylight fades to black and with two new larger rear pockets accessing essentials is easier than ever, even with gloves on.

Rain or Shine Part of the versatile Rain or Shine (ROS) family, the Women’s Perfetto ROS 2 Long Sleeve Jacket covers a wide range of riding conditions. 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 you're 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.
After four generations of the Perfetto long sleeve, the Women's Perfetto ROS Long Sleeve Jacket gets the biggest performance upgrade yet, as denoted by the ROS in the title, Rain or Shine, delivering comfort across a remarkably wide range of winter cycling conditions. Cold-weather comfort is taken care of by two exclusive Castelli GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ fabrics by Gore, a lightly fleeced front panel keeps in warmth while the light and stretchy rear fabric enhances breathability, so you always feel at just the right temperature. However, should you get caught in rain or snow, the water repellent INFINIUM™ fabrics really come into their own. The Perfetto ROS is also the perfect weight for layering - use a light base-layer for milder conditions or add a thermal jersey underneath for more extreme cold. You decide. Improvements can also be found to the pockets, now larger to accommodate gloved hands, also with a pump sleeve inside, a dropped tail for extra rear wheel spray coverage, easily accessible side zipped vents and a large reflective detail on the back for those shorter days of winter. All details that really count towards comfort when cycling in the cold and wet.

Be it a chilly morning start or a long mountain descent, the Women's 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, while 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.
