Description
A lightly insulated jacket for performance-oriented road cyclists. With design and construction inspired by ski mountaineering clothing, the Elemento Lite Jacket offers streamlined, aero warmth for cold-weather centuries and shoulder-season climbs over high mountain passes. Lightweight synthetic fill is held between layers of permeable nylon, which allows air to circulate through the insulation for increased breathability and efficient moisture management. Stretch panels keep it close to your body as you drop into a crouch, while rear pockets hold ride essentials.
- 3-layer construction encloses lightweight synthetic insulation between layers of permeable woven nylon for exceptional warmth and breathability.
- Water-repellent finish.
- Stretch panels on sides provide a performance fit with full freedom of movement.
- 3 rear pockets with reflective detail.
- Inner waist closure can be tightened to reduce drafts or loosened for improved breathability.
- Fits close to body, slightly looser than a typical Castelli race jersey fit.

Windproofness
A windproof garment does not allow any air to permeate the fabric. A garment with windproof panels has panels of fabric that are totally windproof, but the rest of the garment may not be windproof. A wind-resistant garment resists some wind, but not as much as a garment that is windproof. |
