Castelli Competizione Thermal Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey
The Castelli Competizione Thermal Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey is designed for cool-weather rides when you want more warmth than a standard jersey without stepping up to a full cycling jacket. Its brushed fleece fabric provides insulation and moisture management, while plenty of stretch creates a comfortable fit in the riding position.
Designed for temperatures from approximately 12 to 18 C, the Competizione Thermal works well on its own in cool conditions or paired with a cycling vest when you need additional wind protection. Breathable construction helps manage heat during harder efforts, making it a versatile option for autumn, mild winter and early-season riding.

Brushed Fleece Warmth
The 100% polyester brushed fleece fabric provides useful insulation for cooler rides while remaining stretchy enough to create a comfortable fit. It offers enough warmth to be worn on its own in suitable conditions without the additional weather protection or bulk of a cycling jacket.
Breathable Performance
The fleece fabric combines warmth with good breathability and moisture-wicking performance, helping manage heat and perspiration as your effort increases. This makes the Competizione Thermal particularly useful for training and longer rides in cool but relatively dry conditions.
Versatile Layering
Wear the Competizione Thermal on its own when conditions are mild, or combine it with a cycling vest when additional protection is needed. This versatile layering approach makes it well suited to changeable autumn rides, mild winter days and the transition into spring.
Practical Cycling Details
An easy-sliding YKK Vislon front zip allows quick ventilation adjustments on the move, while three rear pockets provide space for ride essentials. A silicone gripper elastic at the waist helps keep the jersey securely positioned, with a subtle embossed Castelli logo providing a clean finish.
Who It’s For
The Castelli Competizione Thermal Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey is for road cyclists looking for a warm and breathable alternative to a lightweight jacket in cool conditions. It’s particularly suited to riders who prefer the versatility of combining a thermal jersey with a cycling vest through autumn, mild winter and early-season rides.
