Castelli Puffy Unlimited Gilet - Women´sElevate your all-road and gravel adventures with the Castelli Puffy Unlimited Gilet, an essential thermal layer designed specifically for the female cyclist who demands warmth without the weight. This isn´t just another vest, it´s a highly technical piece of equipment engineered to provide core insulation and protection in a surprisingly lightweight and compact package. Perfect for unpredictable weather, chilly morning starts, or long mountain descents, this women´s gilet ensures you stay comfortable when the temperature drops, without ever overheating during intense efforts.The magic of the Puffy Unlimited Gilet lies in its innovative use of Polartec® Alpha® Direct insulation. This advanced synthetic insulation technology offers an incredible warmth-to-weight ratio, providing maximum thermal loft with minimal bulk. Unlike traditional insulation, it´s designed for active use, meaning it breathes exceptionally well, wicking moisture away from your body to prevent that clammy, chilled feeling after a hard climb. This allows you to keep the gilet on for longer periods, adapting seamlessly to changing intensities and conditions. The result is consistent, breathable warmth that feels almost weightless.Protection from the elements is handled by the meticulously crafted outer shell. A coated windproof microfiber woven fabric effectively blocks chilling winds, preserving your core temperature. This shell is further enhanced with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, helping to shed light rain and road spray to keep you drier for longer. To ensure a perfect, body-hugging fit that moves with you, Castelli has integrated its signature Nano Flex stretch woven fabric on the sides and across the pockets. This strategic placement adds crucial stretch for unrestricted freedom of movement and further boosts breathability in high-heat zones.Functionality is key for adventure riding, and the Puffy Unlimited Gilet delivers with thoughtful storage options. A secure zippered pocket on the chest is perfect for stashing keys, a card, or a small phone. For greater capacity on long rides, two large, easy-to-access rear pockets provide ample room for nutrition, tools, or even a rolled-up rain jacket. The full-length YKK® Vislon® zipper glides effortlessly for quick ventilation adjustments, and its U-shaped pull is easy to grab even when wearing gloves. This windproof, thermal gilet is the ultimate versatile companion for any ride that takes you off the beaten path.Technical Specifications:* Coated windproof microfiber woven outer shell with DWR treatment.* Polartec® Alpha® Direct insulation layer for maximum loft with minimum bulk.* Nano Flex stretch woven fabric on sides and pockets adds stretch and breathability.* Zippered pocket on chest.* 2 large rear pockets.* YKK® Vislon® zipper with U-shaped zipper pull.* Woven inner label
