Castelli Women’s Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket

Castelli Women’s Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket

When the weather is unpredictable, with cooler temperatures and threats of rain showers in the forecast, that is the time to reach for your Castelli Women’s Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket.

The Women’s Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket is a three-season windproof and water-resistant cycling garment, suited to a wide range of weather conditions. From the steady bike rides of dull and drizzly autumn days to the fresher conditions of spring, to ever more frequent milder, wetter winter days, the dual-layer insulating Alpha construction and windproof and water-resistant outer will keep you comfortable come what may.

The Perfect Balance

When it comes to balancing warmth, breathability and weather-protection the Women’s Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket excels thanks to the combination of windproof and water-resistant Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150 to the front and Nano Flex Xtra Dry to the back. The INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150 faces into the weather, protecting you from wind chill and rain showers while the Nano Flex Xtra Dry across the back panels, complete with nanotechnology water-repellent finish, is incredibly breathable to ensure you’re not drenched in sweat when pedalling hard. 

The protective outer layer is then complemented by the stitched-in inner layer. This layer is made with quick-wicking Prosecco Strada that works to move sweat off the skin and prevent you from getting damp and chilly when working hard. With both inner and outer layers having zips you can easily adapt ventilation to regulate body heat depending on weather and intensity levels. 

 

Fit and Features

The advanced patterning makes for an excellent close-to-body fit, the extra stretch at the waist keeping the fit sleek while a raw-edge waist lies flat and moves with you. Finished with a Castelli silicone text gripper at the waist, it keeps that jersey/jacket from riding up. Three rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus a front zippered pocket take care of all your storage needs.

It may be called a jacket but it’s so much more. For your more intense rides in wetter and changeable weather or for cool days of steady miles then the warmth, breathability and wet weather protection strike just the right balance to keep you dry and comfy all ride.
