Chpt.3 Rocka MK2 Long Sleeve 1.64 All Weather Jacket : Outer Space

Season:SS18

Brand:Chpt.3

Code:CST9200132

The 1.64 Rocka MK2 Long sleeve jacket is a development of the successful Rocka short sleeve.  It is a unique all-weather jacket and is the Chpt.3 revision of one of the most iconic racing garments, the Castelli Gabba. From a technical perspective it is every bit as protective and shares the same performance properties.

The Rocka MK2 1.64, like the Gabba, is made of Gore Windstopper X-Lite fabric and has had a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, meaning it will protect you from the wind and rain. The material’s properties also make it highly breathable, preventing overheating while going hard. The most striking difference between the Gabba and the Rocka is the collar, it is secured with one button and designed to keep the worst of the elements out at the neck: when not required it can be wrapped around the rear of the neck and fastened to the same button. This reveals the contrasting Rosso fuoco colour on the inside of the understated Outer Space blue Rocka. This two-tone material was especially made for this design and is nearly 20% lighter than the material used for the Gabba – a significant weight reduction which also increases performance and reduces volume when removed to be carried in a jersey pocket.

The Rocka is designed as an outer shield, although not waterproof it is water repellent, windproof, and breathable, able to protect you in all but the most extreme of conditions, hence the protective collar.

Like the 1.21 Jersey, there is a storm flap pocket on the front, capable of holding a phone or credit cards. The new twin pocket design on the back are located to allow for compatibility with the pockets of the jersey underneath because once the Rocka has been removed from its resting place in the central pocket of the 1.21 Jersey, it allows space in that area for the pocket to be used on the Rocka. Like the front pockets on both garments this pocket is protected by a storm flap.

The name Rocka is a nod to the motorcycle culture of the mid 20th century, the rockers as opposed to mods would wear biking jackets that invariably had wrap-around button collars. Despite this Rocker lean, it was London tailor Timothy Everest who helped shape the collar and inspire the two-tone material.

The cut is slightly longer at the back to reduce the effect of wet weather rooster tails and road spray and the jacket is a touch more generous than the 1.21 jersey in order to perform best in the worst conditions. The pleated shoulders enhance movement and create a sharper edge, unlike the Gabba whose cut is designed to optimise aerodynamic performance. The Rocka as a whole has been designed to be more accommodating with enhanced comfort and a more unique silhouette, for the non-race days!

Since the original Rocka 1.61 there have been some refinements in the series and, aside from the double rear pocket design, the new long sleeve Rocka 1.64 carries these features. The revised storm flap at the rear is slightly less bulky and is hemmed with a black reflective 360 Reflex material for enhanced visibility; this material can also be found at the wrists for visibility while signalling at night. In addition, while we are unsure if it was intentional, the collar material seems to be softer than that of the original and this is certainly welcome.

To keep your CHPT3 Rocka MK2 Jersey working it needs to be clean.

Shower in your Rocka. Yep, that's right; if you've been out for a wet ride and need your Rocka the next day, take it in the shower with you to rinse of road grime and sweat (just use water, not your expensive shampoo), then hang up to dry. This stops a build up of dirt on/in the garment, meaning it will work better for longer.

When your CHPT3 Rocka stops beading rain on the surface (we call this ‘wetting out’) don’t panic – getting it back to its best is a simple matter of giving it some TLC. Rocka Jackets and other CHPT3 soft-shell garments use a DWR water-repellent treatment, which keeps the outer fabric from becoming saturated so that the breathable barrier can do its job. If the outer fabric starts to absorb water, the garment can lose up to 70% of its breathability as well as reducing waterproofing. Don't be scared to wash your Rocka but if washing alone doesn't work, the DWR water-repellent treatment may need rejuvenating or replenishing.

You can rejuvenate the DWR finish by cleaning and drying (till just damp) your garment, then putting it in the tumble dryer at a low heat for about 20 minutes, or by ironing under low heat using a towel between the iron and garment – being very careful not to melt the synthetic fibres. This will reactivate the water resistant properties of the treatment. This trick will only work once or twice when it stops working you need to consider replenishment. If in doubt about your abilities, don't do this. Any damage caused by heat will void your warranty.

Technical Information
  • Gore Windstopper X-Lite fabric is windproof and water repellent while remaining highly breathable
  • Cut with proportions like a tailored jacket
  • Reversible neck flap can seal out the cold from the front, or give some added visibility when worn to the back
  • Black reflective piping at hem and wrists for low light visibility
  • New twin covered rear pockets
  • Articulated sleeves
  • Front pocket is sized for iPhone 8 / Credit cards
  • Industrial metallic zipper with zipper pull

Sizing Information

The Rocka is designed to have a slightly looser fit around the body in order to enhance the breathability under effort in extreme weather conditions. Downsize one if you want a more fitted look e.g. if you measure 40" (A) chest, wear a 39".
