Castelli Perfetto Long Sleeve Jersey (Limited Edition)

The Gabba was the original pure racers garment when hammering it at race-pace in cold and damp conditions. Adding long sleeves Castelli then created the Perfetto, (Italian for perfect) Long Sleeve Jersey, expanding the temperature range of the original Gabba - it’s a great piece worn in cool conditions with just a light base layer, or it can handle very cold conditions if you add an extra layer or 2 or 3. Gore® Windstopper® X-Lite Plus fabric, with improved water-repellency, is the key to its extraordinary ability to block cold winds, remain breathable and shrug off snow, light rain and sudden showers.

Castelli has also focused on improving the fit of this latest Perfetto, making it even more efficient through the air while still retaining excellent freedom of movement. The rear splash flap has also had a complete make-over to make it lie flatter and fit even better. The reflective logo back there keeps you visible too. 

There is little wonder why the Perfetto is named as it is. Time and again it's been labeled as perfect, with an ability to keep riders protected from wind and rain and yet have the aero performance and breathability more akin to of a standard jersey. The perfect jacket? You decide.
