Castelli Perfetto RoS 2 Vest

The Castelli Perfetto RoS 2 Vest has been designed with perfection in mind. Castelli's team wanted a lightweight vest that would pack down easily into a pocket, allowing it to be taken on any ride 'just in case'. However, they also wanted it to be sturdy enough to resist splashes and provide warmth and wind protection, all while allowing sweat to escape.

The Perfetto RoS 2 Vest is made from a combination of GORE-TEX INFINIUM WINDSTOPPER® 203 Stretch fabric at the front and sleeves, offering windproofing and stretch with breathability, and similarly stretchy Nano Flex fabric at the back, which is water repellent and allows just enough wind to keep you dry without getting cold.

It offers a close fit, with a collar to keep your neck warm, along with 360-degree visibility thanks to a reflective band below the pockets and another around the armholes. It has been improved from its original design with an additional pocket and a two-way zip that can be used to adjust the vest's ventilation on the fly.

Compact and light enough to carry, this smart vest will keep you warm on a cool day when the wind picks up unexpectedly or the roads are throwing up spray. Perfection indeed!
