Castelli Goccia Jacket - fiery red 656

This elegant jacket provides full waterproof protection with a stretch fit for comfort and aerodynamic performance. The jacket is protective enough to wear all day yet looks good on a gravel ride or when you’re meeting your mates at the café.

Features of the Castelli Goccia Jacket:

• Tempesta stretch material with 10,000 mm water column and 20,600 mvp breathability
• Waterproof taped seams
• Elastic and with an extremely comfortable fit that follows your every move
• Small enough to stow away to fit in the jersey pocket
• Concealed, extra smooth running YKK® Vislon® zipper
• Extra long back section as splash protection.
• Ventilation opening at the back
• Reflective stripe on the lower back

This jacket does three things really well: the Tempesta Stretch fabric provides full waterproof protection, the four-way stretch makes it fit any body type, and it looks great on and off the bike. Compared with the more expensive GORE-TEX® Idro jackets, you give up the best-in-class breathability and extreme packability, but you gain stretch fit and increased durability.

Castelli has developed the fabric to their own specifications to make a jacket that is fully waterproof, comfortably stretchy, packable enough to fit in a jersey pocket, and with an appearance and hand that make it look great. This is meant to be a rain shell worn over a jersey, so they’ve forgone the external pockets and kept the construction simple to minimize seams. Castelli has given it a vent on the back to prevent overheating, a covered zip to keep spray out and reflectivity for safety.
