Castelli Ultra Rain Cape jacket

Depending on the time of year or where you live, it's always good to have the extra assurance that if the weather takes a turn you will be ready. Developed as part of Ristretto Technology, the Ultra Rain Cape is the jacket that gives you that peace of mind. Unlike most rain jackets, the stretch form-fit two-layer Weather Protection Polartec® fabric sheds rain but also packs down into less than a pocket. The form-fit fabric also offers enough stretch that you can wear it over just a jersey without it flapping in the wind, or, when the temperatures drop, it fits on over your Espresso Air Jacket or Perfetto Air Jacket, giving you that extra peace of mind year-round. Castelli added reflectivity on the arms and waist for added visibility in low-light foul weather. And to make sure it's easy for you to always take with you, it packs into its own hidden pocket so it's easy to stash away.
