Castelli Transition Air Vest Wind Jacket

Microfibre 20 denier nylon

The lightweight fabric is almost windproof yet offers, thanks to Castelli’s Ristretto fabric technology, the breathability you need to prevent overheating during exercise.

Two-way zip

The zip with Castelli's scorpion pull-tab can be opened from both the top and the bottom so you can increase ventilation while cycling or create a casual, open look during a coffee break.

Ideal for:

• Early, cold starts, short descents and coffee breaks – thanks to the wide temperature range of 12 to 20°C;
• Users looking for a tailored fit – the gilet is slim-fitting, bear this in mind when choosing your size.

Less suitable for:

• Temperatures outside the 12 - 20°C range – if it is colder than that, you will need an extra layer underneath; if it is warmer, the vest may feel a bit tight.

Not sure? Here’s how to check: When preparing for a ride, check the weather forecast. If the temperature stays between 12°C and 20°C and you want to be able to adjust ventilation yourself, the Castelli Transition Air Vest is an excellent choice.

• Wear the vest on early, cold rides and take it off as soon as the temperature rises – fold it up compactly and pop it in a back pocket.
• Open the zip from the bottom during short climbs or warm descents for more ventilation without having to take the gilet off completely.
• Wash the vest according to the care instructions on the label to maintain its windproof properties.
