Product Story

Product details

Packable Weather Protection

The Castelli Emergency 3 Rain Jacket offers reliable waterproof protection for unexpected downpours or all-day wet conditions. Its lightweight and compact design allows it to fit easily into a jersey pocket, making it ideal for road rides, gravel adventures, and endurance cycling.

Waterproof Performance

Constructed from Castelli’s 3-layer Deluge fabric with a 20,000 mm water column rating, this jacket provides full waterproof and windproof protection. The fabric is thin and light for packability, with a knit polyester inner layer that feels comfortable against the skin. Taped seams and a waterproof zipper enhance water resistance.

Comfort and Fit

The jacket features a close-to-body but not tight fit with performance stretch fabric that moves with you without binding. Its articulated cut supports riding position mobility and reduces flapping at speed.

Designed for Real-World Riding

An extended rear tail offers extra coverage from road spray, while 360° reflective details improve visibility in low-light and poor weather. This jacket is intended as an emergency outer layer rather than a fully insulated cold-weather garment.

Lightweight and Practical

Weighing approximately 222 grams, the Emergency 3 is light enough to carry on nearly every ride and packs down small for easy storage in jersey pockets or bikepacking bags.
