Conclusion on the rain jacket from Castelli
The jackets are comfortable against the skin and only rustle softly. The cut is well adapted to the bent posture, but a relatively large amount of fabric billows out at the front on the chest and stomach. The collar and sleeves are the right length. Even after washing, the models offer the best weather protection: they are waterproof and rain runs off reliably. The collar and sleeves are long, but not quite as snug as the Alé. The sealed zip is relatively difficult to operate with one hand, but the jackets also fit athletic figures. Plus points for the shoulder chimney for ventilation and the abundant use of reflective material.
