Product Information
Full details
The Castelli Endurance Jersey is designed for long-distance road cyclists who prioritize high-performance moisture management and aerodynamic comfort in warm conditions. Utilizing the advanced ProSecco Air Donna fabric, this jersey keeps riders cool and dry during extensive efforts in temperatures ranging from 20 to 40°C. While it offers a precise, pro-level fit and excellent storage capacity, it is specifically tailored for a performance silhouette, which may feel more restrictive to cyclists accustomed to a loose-fitting or recreational jersey style.

FAQs
What is the optimal temperature range for this jersey?
This jersey is optimized for warm to hot weather, specifically between 20°C and 40°C.
Does this jersey provide sun protection?
The lightweight, breathable fabric is designed for airflow; for high-UV conditions, we recommend applying sunscreen under the jersey or wearing a base layer.
Can I use the zippered pocket for a smartphone?
The zippered pocket is designed for small essentials like keys or credit cards. Most modern smartphones may be too large for this specific compartment.
Is the fabric transparent?
The fabric is engineered for high performance and cooling. While it is lightweight, it maintains opacity for cycling use.
How should I store the jersey long-term?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading and to maintain the elasticity of the hem and sleeves.
Troubleshooting
Jersey feels too tight in the shoulders when standing upright.
The jersey is cut for a 'riding position.' Check the fit while in a hunched, cycling-specific posture to ensure it fits correctly.
Hem starts to ride up during the ride.
Ensure the silicone gripper is clean. If dirt or oils accumulate, wipe the gripper with a damp cloth to restore tackiness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the performance fabrics, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature (30°C) using a gentle cycle. Always use a laundry bag to protect the fabric from zippers or rough surfaces on other garments.
- Drying: Hang dry in a shaded area. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can degrade the elastic properties of the hem and sleeve grippers.
- Compatibility: This jersey is designed to be paired with high-performance bib shorts. Its precise cut is meant to complement a cycling-specific posture (hunched over the handlebars). When fitting, ensure the chest and shoulder areas allow for a full range of motion while in your natural riding position.
