Castelli Unlimited Perfetto Ros 2 Jacket

The long-sleeve Gabba is one of our most versatile pieces. 100% wind protection with GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® water protection and best-in-class breathability. With a light base layer it’s good for mild temperatures, or with a thermal layer you can ride it below freezing. If you have just one jacket in your cycling wardrobe, this should be it.

The Unlimited version of the Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket is simply a graphic treatment making it look more at home on any surface but not sacrificing any of the performance. When we think about what we want in a gravel jacket, we keep coming back to the Perfetto, since it really is perfect for so many conditions. We just want it to look different. The Perfetto RoS 2 excels in dry conditions thanks to the high breathability, as well as in wet conditions thanks to the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. There’s a light fleece-lined water-resistant fabric on the forward-facing surfaces and a lighter and stretchier fabric on the back that maximizes breathability while providing excellent water repellency. The Perfetto RoS 2 Jacket keeps all the cold wind out while being much more breathable than the typical polyurethane membranes used on most jackets that try to compete with the Perfetto. When you stay drier you don’t need as many layers underneath. The beauty of this jacket is that it doesn’t have any insulation on its own, so a thin base layer is just right for mild conditions, while adding an insulating layer (a thermal jersey or Castelli’s Alpha 2nd Layer) will take you to cold temperatures. You decide. The “2” part of the name refers to the updates to the latest version, including a YKK® Vislon® zipper with both top and bottom openings for more adjustable ventilation. The reflectivity on the back is more visible, the seam at the top of the shoulder has been moved to the back, and the three pockets hold more gear. While the Perfetto remains decidedly a performance fit, the new model has a touch more room through the chest, shoulder, and biceps. This is the one jacket that belongs in every cyclist’s quiver.
