What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I keep the Espresso 2 Vest in my jersey pocket on every cool ride. The wind protection is just enough without overheating, and the fit is so smooth it doesn't flap around. I especially love the two-way zipper and that it actually has rear pockets-super practical for a vest this light."We turn to the Espresso 2 Vest when the breeze picks up, the temps drop, or a long descent lies ahead. Castelli designed this packable layer to provide front-facing wind protection while allowing airflow through the back, keeping us warm without building heat. It's that perfect middle ground between a heavy jacket and a summer kit. The stretch-woven front panel keeps wind out, while the Air_O Stretch fabric across the back and sides moves with us and lets heat escape. A top- and bottom-opening YKK(R) zipper allows on-the-fly venting or quick access to layers underneath, and three rear pockets give us space to carry ride fuel and tools. Tailored and versatile, it's the vest we always pack-and often wear.
