CASTELLI DO.DI.CI JACKET PROMO

The best jacket for high-intensity rides on cool days. Thanks to Castelli's Ristretto technology, only a small amount of air passes through the fabric and sweat evaporates 12 times more than with the previous technology.

The Gabba short-sleeve jacket for riding in the rain, invented by Castelli, was immediately appreciated also by those looking for a jacket for fast outings in autumn or spring, when it is still necessary to retain body heat but traditional jackets are too heavy. Gabba was created for riding in the rain, and today Gabba R does it even better. But, if like most cyclists, you mainly use Gabba in dry conditions, DO.DI.CI. is the jacket for you. Gabba was designed for riding in the rain, so priority was given to water protection rather than breathability. If this is not your case, we can offer you a more breathable jacket, ideal for dry days. The secret lies entirely in Castelli's Ristretto technology. The term “engineered air impermeability” refers to mostly windproof fabrics that allow a tiny amount of air to pass through to eliminate more sweat and keep you drier. But how much air? DO.DI.CI., like the number 12, because this jacket offers air permeability 12 times higher than the old Gabba. It’s the same difference as hanging your shorts in a cold, damp room versus hanging them in a light breeze. The fabric is extremely stretchy, for an unmatched fit. And when it rains? The fabric doesn’t hold much road spray, but you can store an Ultra Rain Cape or a Squall Shell Jacket in the central pocket if you think it might rain during your ride. Available in short and long sleeve versions.
