Castelli Men's Gabba Rain or Shine SS Jacket
In 2010 Castelli introduced the Gabba to the pros and changed the way they race in the rain and cold, and the way they ride in training. Every other performance cyclist soon saw the need for a Gabba in his or her wardrobe.
Castelli has made some minor updates along the way, but for the fourth-generation Gabba it started with a clean slate to make a significant upgrade. That involved moving it to water resistance, which meant developing an exclusive Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper fabric. It made the front-facing fabric warmer with a light brushing, while the rear-facing fabrics are lighter yet more water-repellent than the previous Gabba.
It made it better in the rain through seam-sealing on the shoulders and a covered zipper. Based on Team Ineos testing, Castelli figured it's better to have two pockets that are easier to access with gloved hands, though it has provided an internal sleeve to keep your pump or other items from moving around. It's not easy to make a better Gabba, but Castelli will keep trying.
