| Bicyclinghub.com Says | A perfect jacket for racers who need jersey visibility and temporary wind/rain protection.
|
The Sottile jacket is made of lightweight, semi-transparent material that allows your jersey underneath to still be seen, along with a race number if you are competing. A great accompaniment also on any ride where you might be unsure about the weather. It'll fit into a jersey pocket without you even knowing it's there but should you need it, boy will you be glad! If the rain stays away? - well at a mere 100 grams, this will not have taken up much space in your jersey pocket, or slowed you down any!
Sottile jacket features:
Lightweight, breathable, and wind resistant.
Stretchy fabric for a great fit.
10,000MM Water Colum fabric for raw protection.
Zippered side opening for easy access to jersey pockets.
Mesh side panel for extra ventilation.
2 rear reflective tabs.
Weight 100g (size Large).
Temperature range: 43 to 59 degrees Fahrenheit.

Scott Mares from Crossbikereview.com says
"When caught in a downpour, this jacket will definitely protect you. The high tech Sottile offers a very lightweight and packable rain jacket for a mere $80. While there is no reflective piping on the Sottile, tthere are 2 reflective tabs on the back of the jacket located near the seams which gives added visibility. According to an online Italian-English dictionary, "Sottile" means "thin, delicate, slender, slim, small, sharp, fine, subtle, and slight." Weighing in at 3.3 oz, those words sum up Castelli's smart new cycling rain jacket in more than one way.
"The Castelli Sottile is the perfect 'go to' jacket when the skies are overcast...Get your hands on a Sottile, and you may be arm wrestling to see who gets to wear it that day."
