Polartec® Alpha® Direct

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.

Nano Flex

Exclusively engineered by Castelli. We take our thermal fleecy stretch Thermoflex fabric and coat it with millions of tiny nanofilaments to create the most water-repellent fabric finish ever. Drops of water stay as spherical balls on top of the fabric or bounce off the fabric without leaving a trace.

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.

Best jacket for mild conditions

This is the jacket for going fast on cold days or being perfectly dressed on cool days. Our Alpha double-layer construction is the core of what makes this jacket work so that you can be in full flight mode when the season starts. The stretch woven fabric lets a small amount of air in to keep you from getting too sweaty during those efforts on colder days, because if you get wet you get cold. The Polartec® Alpha second layer insulates while still providing plenty of breathability, and it's so light the jacket has hardly any bulk to it. The back is made from our Nano Flex Extra Dry fabric, which provides a good level of insulation yet has no membrane so allows for ample amounts of sweat to escape. The fit is close to body so there is no fabric flapping around, while the little details make the difference: easy-sliding YKK® zippers, reflective drain holes on the pockets, a lie-flat silicone gripper band around the waist. The close fit makes this our most aerodynamic jacket as well. Not that aerodynamics are terribly important in the winter, but we're a firm believer that Fast Is Fun!
