Gilet recommendations

Roberto di Velo

Recently picked up a Castello Thermosuit in the post-crimble sales. Whilst I like the fit of it very much, IMO it's not quite warm enough for the coldest winter weather. Hence I was on the lookout for a gilet to go on top for some extra warmth; but it would also be handy if it was small enough to stash in a pocket. Any recommendations?

Dunno if it's warm enough but the Sportful hot pack definitely packs small.

Were you thinking of the roubaix or the lightweight one?

Have the same thermosuit, stick a castelli fawesome gilet over it sometimes, and if proper, proper cold, then a SS Gabba, but that gets too hot for me most of the time.

Lightweight one would be fine over the thermosuit. Other one might be a bit of an overkill. It's pretty much the soft-shell without arms!

Ta! Advice very much appreciated.
