What It Is

The long-sleeve Gabba is one of our most versatile pieces. 100% wind protection with GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® water protection and best-in-class breathability. With a light base layer it's good for mild temperatures, or with a thermal layer you can ride it below freezing. If you have just one jacket in your cycling wardrobe, this should be it.
Rosso Corsa

Our Rosso Corsa label is only applied to the highest-level products we make. Every thread and fiber, every curve and contour is obsessed about. Rosso Corsa represents a categorical breakthrough in cycling innovation and the meticulous craftsmanship you expect from Castelli’s performance-enhancing apparel.

GORE-TEX Infinium™ WINDSTOPPER®

Gore-Tex® garments provide total wind protection and maximum breathability. The windproof membrane keeps you from getting cold due to windchill, but the optimum breathability prevents overheating and moisture accumulation by allowing sweat to escape easily. Water repellency is ensured by the DWR treatment applied to the outer fabric.

RoS - Rain or Shine

We’ve engineered RoS as the no-compromise best clothing we know how to make for dry conditions, and then tried to make it as close to waterproof as possible without sacrificing breathability and ventilation.

Bluesign®

Bluesign® system partners are committed to applying the Bluesign® system which unites the entire textile supply chain to jointly reduce its impact on people and the environment. The Input Stream Management ensures that Bluesign® approved chemical products and raw materials are used in all steps of the manufacturing process. Substances posing risks to people and the environment are hence eliminated from the very beginning. On-site inspections verify the proper application of such chemical products and raw materials in controlled processes and ensure the responsible use of resources. Committed to applying the Bluesign® system • Responsibly acting party of the textile supply chain • Continuously improving the environmental performance • Focused on a sustainable future Bluesign® system partners are responsibly acting parties of the textile value chain committed to applying the Bluesign® system. They aim to continuously improve their environmental performance and are focused on a sustainable future.

The Perfetto RoS 2 is the one jacket that does everything well. If you look carefully, the Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket is essentially a long-sleeve version of the Gabba RoS 2. So it's just a warmer Gabba? Not really. The full sleeves fully turn it into a jacket, but one that covers a wide range of conditions. Like the Gabba, the RoS insignia signifies that it excels in dry conditions thanks to the high breathability, as well as in wet conditions thanks to the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. There's a light fleece-lined water-resistant version on the forward-facing surfaces and a lighter and stretchier fabric on the back that maximizes breathability while providing excellent water repellency. The Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket keeps all the cold wind out while being much more breathable than the typical polyurethane membranes used on most jackets that try to compete with the Perfetto. When you stay drier, you don't need as many layers underneath. The beauty of this jacket is that it doesn't have any insulation on its own, so a thin base layer is just right for mild conditions, while adding an insulating layer (a thermal jersey or Castelli's Alpha 2nd Layer) will take you to cold temperatures. You decide. The "2" part of the name refers to the updates to the latest version, including a YKK® Vislon® zipper with both top and bottom openings for more adjustable ventilation. The reflectivity on the back is more visible, the seam at the top of the shoulder has been moved to the back, and the three pockets hold more gear. While the Perfetto remains decidedly a performance fit, the new model has a touch more room through the chest, shoulder, and biceps. This is the one jacket that belongs in every cyclist's quiver.

A great piece for tempo rides in varying conditions.

18/12/2023

I like the versatility of this jacket. The two way zipper is key as are the side zippered air flow areas. Adding insulated base layers and a vest make it a great winter option for a tempo (mid speed for me) ride. I like the fit, however, many Castelli pieces have sleeves that are much longer than you would expect for the sizing. I have a good 3 inches of extra fabric on my size medium. This jacket is a go to pick for most rides.

Incredible jacket that works as described

30/10/2023

Very pleased with the jacket although did struggle with the sizing. I am normally an XS but the size chart and fitting recommendations said I should wear a S. The small was too long and too baggy. I wore the XS on a colder day (5 degrees Celsius) with one thin merino wool layer and I was warm for the whole ride. I love the jacket because the two way zipper allows for extra ventilation when you get warm. The jacket also looks great, is light weight and has good sized pockets in the back, something my other riding jacket didn’t have.
