The technically advanced Castelli Alpha Jacket protects you from the wind and rain. Made from Windstopper® 150 fabric, the jacket is windproof and water-resistant, with four way stretch fabric for increased freedom of movement. Designed to keep you warm with just a base layer on underneath, the Alpha jacket features a full front zip that can be opened to provide ventilation at the top of your chest.

The insulation layer is detached from the windproof layer so the windproof layer can be opened for breathability while also enabling moisture to be evaporated. New fabric around the waist will lie complete flat for optimal aerodynamic performance and when in the riding position it conforms to your body to prevent billowing. The wrists of the jacket feature flat raw-edge construction to fit perfectly into your gloves to keep cold air out and to increase comfort. Complete with a collar that follows the bends of your neck, front zipped pocket, three rear pockets and a zipped rear pocket with reflective detail. – A.D.

Brilliant

I have just given the Alpha a good test of a 2 hour brisk ride in 37 degrees with icy 15- 20mph winds and it was perfect. It is totally windproof and kept me warm without being clammy during efforts. I wore a Helly Hansen baselayer underneath and kept very comfortable.The insulation layer underneath the front is useful to vent moisture without getting cold. I usually wear a medium in Castelli but went for a small in the Alpha as the medium was a little baggy for me. I prefer the racy fit and it does stretch to give all day comfort. The Sulphur yellow is visible without being hi-viz,.The Troppo yellow shoe covers do not match exactly but compliment. The Alpha is beautifully made, the sleeves fit my long arms perfectly, the high collar soft and cosy and the garment doesn't ride up on the move. One comment is that the rear pockets feel too high to access easily but there are two small zipped pockets which are easier to get to. I haven't tested it in the rain yet but I'm confident it will be fine. All in all, my favourite cycling garment...and I have a lot!
