Castelli Gabba Ros Jersey – Brilliant Orange for Jerseys – Road

This is the original jacket/jersey that started an entire new product class: the Gabba. It’s a water-resistant short-sleeve jacket that’s equally ideal for dry conditions. Made to be worn with their Nano Flex arm warmers, it allows you to keep your core warm without overheating.

In 2010 Castelli introduced the Gabba to the pros and changed the way pros race in the rain. And cold. And ride in training. Every other performance cyclist soon saw the need for a Gabba in his or her wardrobe.

They’ve made some minor updates along the way, but for the fourth-generation Gabba. They started with a clean slate to make a significant upgrade. That involved moving it to water resistance, which meant developing a new exclusive Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper fabric. They made the front-facing fabric warmer with a light brushing, while the rear-facing fabrics are lighter yet more water repellent than the previous Gabba.

They made it better in the rain through seam sealing on the shoulders and a covered zipper. Based on Team Ineos testing they figured it’s better to have two pockets that are easier to access with gloved hands, though they provide an internal sleeve to keep your pump or other items from moving around.
It’s not easy to make a better Gabba. They’ll keep trying.

The windproof membrane keeps you from getting cold due to windchill, but the optimum breathability prevents overheating and moisture accumulation by allowing sweat to escape easily. Water repellency is ensured by the DWR treatment applied to the outer fabric.
Rosso Corsa – label is only applied to the highest-level products they make. Every thread and fiber, every curve and contour is obsessed about. Rosso Corsa represents a categorical breakthrough in cycling innovation and the meticulous craftsmanship you expect from Castelli’s performance-enhancing apparel.
