The Castelli Aero Race 6.0 Jersey FZ is Castelli’s fastest road race jersey. The idea of making an aerodynamic road race jersey started back in 2006 when aerodynamics was thought to be practical only in time trial clothing. At the time, the focus of road race jerseys was moisture management—keeping a body dry when a ride or race intensity heightens. Yet Castelli knew that aerodynamics played an important role when riding in a peloton so the world-renowned company broke the mold by creating their first Aero Race Jersey with rear pockets for food storage and compressive shoulders to maximize air flow. More than a decade later, Castelli has continued to improve the aerodynamics along with jersey breathability to provide racers with the 6.0 version of the Aero Race Jersey. Details have been perfected; fabrics and seams have been placed in the ideal positions so a cyclist is very comfortable and aero in the leaned forward road race position. The areas that are hit by the wind first are made with Velocity Rev2 fabric, a very compressive fabric that fits like a second skin. The sleeves are made so there is a smooth and comfortable transition from jersey to skin. The rear is made with 3D mesh fabric that creates an extra space for air flow. When you sweat in the Aero Race jersey, the sweat evaporates immediately so you stay dry. The drop tail in the rear keeps the pockets in place when loaded with all the necessary food and amenities a cyclist needs on a road ride or race. This construction keeps the jersey comfortable and aerodynamic. The zipper in the front is designed so it stays flat against skin and it is easy to open and close even as you are riding your bicycle. Reflective piping has been added to increase visibility when the light is low on overcast days or early in the morning.
