Nothing cuts a ride short faster than a surprise deluge. Stay prepared, keeping your core warm and dry, but more importantly, your ride intact with the Castelli Compatto Rain Vest. Gore Windstopper Vega fabric retains all of the weather protection and breathability of its namesake, while remaining exceptionally packable. If you have at least enough room in your jersey for a spare tube, you have enough room for the Compatto Rain Vest to ensure you never have to take the short way home.
