Using line textures and graphic fades, the Rapido jersey is a stylish addition to your cycling wardrobe. But looks aren’t everything, as you’ll soon find out on the ride. The main body is made from a fabric containing 7% LYCRA® that offers horizontal stretch for a comfortable fit but limits vertical stretch to prevent the rear pockets from sagging. Meanwhile, the honeycomb stretch Tailwind fabric is used for the sleeves, sides, and pockets, providing a perfect fit, excellent ventilation, and quick moisture management.

While professional riders slip into increasingly tight jerseys, the Rapido jersey is more suited to enthusiasts who might prefer a bit more room (especially after a coffee/cake break). Although the cut is still streamlined for fast riding, it’s a more generous fit than Castelli’s professional jerseys, and the stretch fabrics also help in this regard, making movement easier.

As you’d expect from Castelli, the details are also perfectly refined. At the waist, the silicone grip prevents the jersey from riding up, and three rear pockets offer space for all your cycling essentials. A YKK Vislon zipper is easy to operate and allows you to easily control ventilation. This is a jersey you’ll love wearing for any type of bike ride, from fast training sessions to social group rides and summer sports.
