Castelli Polvere Jersey - dark grey 030

You won't even notice

Castelli has been riding their bikes on gravel since before it was a thing, and they’ve always done it in their normal Castelli jerseys. The only complaint was that the occasional branch or vine could pull the delicate fabrics, and after a few rides the jersey wouldn’t look exactly pristine. That’s what Castelli focused on with the Polvere Jersey. It compromises nothing in terms of fit, comfort, moisture management and light weight, but they’ve used fabrics that offer additional protection from snags. The arms and shoulders are most exposed, and here they’ve used a snag resistant fabric that fits great yet is extremely protective. The main body is closer to a traditional jersey fabric but fared best in the snag and Velcro tests.

Castelli don’t call this a gravel jersey because it’s equally at home on the asphalt, but if you do take it on your favorite trail it’ll hold up better than any road jersey, and better than most offroad gear.

Castelli fit and performance in a jersey created for extra resistance against snags from vines or branches when you take it on the trails.
