Castelli Unlimited Merino Long Sleeve

High-performance trail jersey made from merino wool for colder days or as thermal protection in low temperatures.

TECHNICAL DATA

• 41% merino wool (195 g/m²), 51% recycled polyester and 8% elastane combine the warmth of wool with the absorbency and robustness of polyester
• Anatomically pre-shaped, longer cut back for typical sitting posture
• Neutral fit
• Front zipped valuables pocket in microfibre material

This mid-weight Italian merino polyester blend fabric - made in Italy - is perfect for cool autumn days, long stages or even as an insulation layer with its ideal mix of warmth and absorbency. Wear it next to your skin on cool days to keep out cold wind, or with a long-sleeved baselayer when it's a bit colder. Combined with an Unlimited Puffy Vest, you'll be equipped well into autumn. And worn under a jacket, you'll get through the whole winter just fine.

The jersey is also the first choice for long-distance or bikepacking tours because it provides lasting warmth while benefiting from the wool's natural ability not to stink.

The material weight and the more open knit favour breathability, making it one of our cooler long-sleeved jerseys. But its suitability for different layers of clothing makes it an extremely versatile piece.

Because we designed it to be paired with a waistcoat, and on the assumption that you have pockets on your shorts and panniers on your bike, we omit back pockets on this merino jersey.
