Castelli Competizione Jacket

The Castelli Competizione Jacket is a cycling jacket designed to offer maximum protection from cold, wind, and light rain, without compromising breathability, comfort, and freedom of movement. It is ideal for winter rides and for facing cold and humid weather conditions, even with wet roads.

The high level of thermal insulation is guaranteed by the inner fleece layer with insulating micro-grid, which traps air and helps maintain body heat. On the outside, the Polartec® AirCore™ Castelli 298g membrane, obtained through electrospinning and air-impermeable, offers excellent protection from wind and rain, while maintaining industry-leading breathability.

The membrane achieves an air permeability of only 0.7 CFM and offers a water column exceeding 5,000 mm, ensuring high protection from the elements. The fabric is also made from recycled PET and is PFAS-free.

The jacket's construction is specifically designed for the riding position, with two-way stretch to ensure a comfortable fit and good freedom of movement while pedaling. The fleece-lined collar increases comfort on colder days, while the YKK® Vislon® zipper allows for easy and quick adjustment even while riding.

For increased safety in low light conditions, the Castelli Competizione Jacket features 360° reflective inserts and heat-printed reflective patterns on the sides of the rear pockets, improving rider visibility on the road.
