Description Bring On The Wind And Rain!
Prepare for miserable weather in style with the Castelli Men's Alpha RoS 2 Jacket, perfect for handling the toughest conditions — rain or shine. This ultimate jacket delivers warmth, breathability, and a high level of rain protection along with a soft and comfortable fit.
As the third generation, this jacket begins with the wind- and waterproof Gore-Tex Infinium™ Windstopper® 150 fabric. Rain or Shine engineering makes for a ride at home in dry conditions as well as wet and windy. Reduced seaming with seam sealing on shoulders as well as the water-resistant YKK® Vislon® zipper reduces chances for rain to ruin your ride. Double-layer Alpha construction separates the insulating layer from the wind and water barrier to let you better regulate ventilation.
The Alpha RoS 2 uses stretch fabrics with advanced patterning for an excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types.

I'm 5'6" and 150#. The large fits perfectly. I used it with different base layers into the 20s F.

Excellent winter jacket

I already have a Castelli Perfetto jacket that's very versatile through a wide temperature range with different base layers, but I wanted something more specific for colder temperatures that was comfortable without the bulk of a thicker base layer. This is that jacket. Very comfortable. Not even a chill in the low 30's with only a short-sleeve base layer. The double layer cuffs absolutely keep the cold from going up the sleeves. The wind blocking is excellent. The insulating front inner layer extends into the sleeves and makes it cozy and yet it's still quite breathable. I wasn't sure I needed another jacket, but now I know I did.

This is an expensive jacket, no doubt.But if you don't feel like freezing on the bike is what makes you strong, then consider this as the one jacket that will keep you riding. I have ridden in freezing fog, cold windy days, and something less than a downpour and this jacket did the trick. I like that there are two layers with zippers you can use to regulate warmth. I like that it is not bulky and maintains aerodynamics for the downhills. I like that the zipper is easy to find with gloves on and vent as needed for the uphills. I especially like that I don't finish a ride feeling like I need to squeegee the sweat off me before a post ride coffee. It was the jacket I asked for when we moved from the desert to the mountains, and I am glad I did.
