Castelli IDRO Gore-Tex Cycling Rain Jacket

Season:AW17

Brand:Castelli

Code:CS4516600

Long the quest of many cycling apparel makers, the lightweight, breathable, packable and waterproof jacket is something that Castelli have been moving inexorably towards over the last few seasons. The Muur and Pocket Liner jackets introduced in Autumn 2014 morphed into the Pave and Tempesta last season with improvements to fabric weight and feel, however they still left a few wanting in terms of the ability to stow them when not in use.

For this season, Castelli have moved from eVent fabric and employed Gore-Tex's new Active shell waterproof fabric.

Active Shell is Gore-tex's lightest and most breathable fabric to date. The fabric is essentially constructed in 3 layers: a lightweight outer is bonded to a membrane which in turn is followed by a  stretchy backeing fabric to allow garments to follow the body closely whilst remaining mobile. As a result, the fabric is tough yet comfortable and critically, far more breathable. The Active Shell fabric is, by design, close fitting and the resultant IDRO jacket hugs the body, this low bulk not only saves weight but also drives heat loss and moisture away from the rider.

The low weight of the fabric combined with the close-fitting countenance means that there is little 'flap' when the jacket is in use and also that, when not being employed, it can be easily stored in half a jersey pocket; a marked improvement on previous offerings at the price. In fact, you can squeeze it into your palm. There is a zip pocket at the rear to allow access to jersey pockets.

Functionally the jacket delivers greater breathability than both the Pave and Tempesta, not by huge amounts but then it is significantly lighter and more diminutive. Waterproofness is impressive for such a thin fabric and this is a result of clever fabric construction. Ultimately, this is the kind of jacket that will be a god-send for those of us that don't like riding in heavier weight jackets and who may - in the absence of a garment such as the IDRO - simply tolerate the rain!
