Full Zip

The perfect solid-color jersey with all the Castelli technical details for performance on every ride. Anima means "soul" in Italian, and that’s what this jersey captures. The previous version of the Anima was a favorite, but Castelli felt we could make it better. Aside from some small cosmetic updates, the biggest improvement is an update to the ProSecco Velo Donna fabric to make it softer and more comfortable. This Italian-made fabric is exclusive to Castelli and makes the new Anima 4 feel like it can’t be an entry-level jersey. The details on this jersey are what set it apart: the perfect fit, the raised stitching detailing, the classy discreet logos, the easy-sliding zipper, and the reflective details. And one final feature to make you choose this jersey is the sun protection. This fabric is rated at UPF 45, meaning it’s filtering out nearly 98% of harmful UV rays despite weighing only 120 grams per square meter.

When Castelli set out to make this jersey, they wanted the jersey that they'd always reach for the second it was washed and dry after the last time we wore it. No matter if you normally wear an aero race-fit jersey or a more regular cut jersey, the Espresso will be your new favorite jersey. First, they focused on the fit and fabric of this jersey. They developed a fabric that would allow for a close-to-body fit without being constrictive or feeling tight. The fabric they developed also offers great breathability and moisture management, and as an added bonus, they found that the fabric tests well in the wind tunnel too! Next, they focused on the waist and pockets so that you can load up the pockets when a long day is in store and nothing moves around. There is a fourth zippered security pocket to keep your valuable safe. Finally, they use a tried and trusted full-length YKK® Vislon® zipper. They're sure that this will be the jersey you always go to, no matter what the ride is that day, because Espresso is always a good idea.
