Description A Core Piece Of Any Cycling Wardrobe
The Castelli Men's Perfetto RoS 2 Vest is made to be the perfect core layer, with wind and water protection on the front, and a breathable nanotechnology water-repellent back. It's light with a stretch fit, and is packable into half a pocket when not needed.
The Perfetto RoS 2 is Castelli's attempt at a vest that's warm and windproof yet breathable thanks to the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM WINDSTOPPER fabric on the front and the membrane-free Nano Flex stretch woven back fabric.
This vest has three rear pockets of its own and easy access to your jersey pockets via a two-way YKK Vislon zipper you can open from the bottom. It has 360° reflectivity thanks to the reflective trim on the armholes and reflective band below the pockets.

weight fabric on front

Keeps core temp from getting cool when riding in the 50's and 60's

This vest works much better than a jacket as I feel comfortable leaving it on into the 60's although can also take it off if it gets too warm as it is much easier to pack in a jersey rear pocket

Good in Forty-degree Weaather

Even though this vest has no insulation, its wind-protective front provides excellent deflection of chilling air. I have worn this over a single short-sleeved summer jersey while using cold-weather arm warmers in the low forties. This was in anticipation of the temperature warming to mid-fifties and higher. Yes, I started out on the chilly side, but after a few miles, I was warmed up enough to no longer be uncomfortable. When the temps reached into the sixties, I easily stowed it in one of my jersey pockets. One of the best features is it has dual-zipper capability for excellent ventilation when it warms up. It's expensive for a vest at full price, but more affordable when Castelli runs a sale. Castelli garments run small, so I ordered two sizes up, 2XL. I'm 6'0" and 185. It fits nicely with no flapping around unless I unzip it significantly.

Great Vest
This is my second one. To me it is an essential piece when the weather gets cold. I wear it over a a regular jersey in the 50s and 60s, and an insulated jersey in the 30s and 40s. It breathes well but is totally wind proof and does a great job of keeping the chill off of your core.

Fit
I love this vest although the fit is very snug even in a xxl. I wish they Castelli made a vest for the everyday rider in other than a race fit.
