Castelli Windproof Jackets. Any good?

[bernieUK]

Good evening all

I thinking of spending a few quid on what I hope is a good winter jacket. I saw a Castelli Ripresa Windproof Jacket on Wiggle for almost half price:

Has anyone used the Castelli brand? I have not heard of them personally. Wiggle must be reducing the price for a reason.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

I love Castelli kit have a jersey and just bought some winter gloves, its well made and stylish but its not cheap. It looks like its last years stock hence the bargain price can't see it on Castelli's site. Be aware that the sizing is tiny and is generally a race cut given the Companys pedigree example I am a 42 chest but in Castelli a XXL.
