Some triathletes choose long sleeves for the extra speed. Some for the comfort. Some for sun protection. The Castelli Men's Free Speed 2 Race TRI Top gives you all three.
The aerodynamic speed is unmatched. It's what Castelli does best. Castelli's year-round testing and development program with the Norwegian Technical University in Trondheim makes their race gear the slickest around.
Sun protection ... well, you've trained untold hours for this day. While still focusing on speed, this Castelli Triathlon Jersey manages to block 94% of UV rays with a Velocity mesh fabric bac, that doesn't compromise speed, comfort, or breathability. You may want to add some sunscreen, but this fabric provides UPF 16 protection, which is a significant help.
Take note of the well-thought-out details: Castelli's generous two pockets lie flat but hold a lot of gear and nutrition. The SnapLock fasteners clip to Castelli shorts to prevent the top from riding up during the swim or bike.

Quality and workmanship of the jersey is great. Material is suitable for hot climate with a mesh fabric at the back.
However, sizing is the problem. I'm 36�" at chest and have sized up to a Medium which is for 37�" chest but its still too small for me. The sleeves are long like how they are meant to be. Would like to swap it for a bigger size but I ordered it from overseas so too much hassle with returns.
