Castelli womens elemento lite jackettaking the warmth of your favourite puffy jacket and combining it with incredible breathability, castellis womens elemento lite jacket is a highly functional cycling garment designed for cold weather riding.
With an impressive balance of warmth and breathability, the womens elemento lite jacket is able to pull off this balancing act thanks to the unique construction and material mix.
Instead of using a windproof membrane and insulation, castelli uses a water-resistant synthetic down insulation sandwiched between wind-resistant woven inner and outer layers that trap warmth but at the same time allows a small degree of air-permeability.
Its that small amount of air that passes through to the body that picks up perspiration and evaporates it more efficiently than any windproof membrane fabric available.
The result - amazing warmth, protection and comfort even when working hard.
Castelli cut the jacket slightly looser than a full race fit, but with plisse stretch panels on sides, elbows and wrists theyve still been able to minimise excess fabric that can catch the wind, while at the same time offers you full mobility when youre on the bike.
When taking on long winter rides the elemento lite jacket provides the warmth youll love with the breathability for taking on those tougher climbs and faster-paced sections without being overwhelmed with sweat.
