Stay warm and ride far with the Fly Direct Vest—ultralight and packable performance
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I rely on the Fly Direct Vest for its incredible warmth-to-weight ratio. The Polartec® Alpha® Direct insulation does a great job of trapping heat without overheating, making it a go-to for longer rides. And I really appreciate the triple rear pockets that keep my essentials handy."
The Fly Direct Vest combines cutting-edge materials with ride-ready functionality, making it a must-have for variable conditions. Castelli built this vest around Polartec® Alpha® Direct insulation, a technology known for delivering warmth without bulk. This insulation is also highly breathable, so you can push the pace without feeling stifled. Paired with an ultralight windproof shell featuring a DWR treatment, it keeps out unexpected gusts and light drizzle.
For those longer rides or changing weather, the vest’s three rear pockets provide essential storage, while the dual-opening YKK® Vislon® zipper makes venting easy and convenient. At just 139 grams, the Fly Direct Vest packs down small, so you can always have it on hand without adding weight to your setup.
Whether you’re tackling early morning mountain passes or unpredictable spring rides, this vest ensures you’ll stay warm, visible, and prepared for whatever the ride brings.
