For days when a jersey, gilet & arm-warmers just won’t cut it, but then again a full winter jacket is an overkill, the Flight Jacket Air comes into its own. The stretch-woven fabric blocks much of the wind, but enough can get through to quickly evaporate away sweat. A water-repellent finish is also ideal when roads are damp & there’s drizzle hanging in the air. Across the inside of the chest, sleeves & upper back you’ll find Polartec Alpha insulation. This works well with the partially windproof outer, providing warmth without any sacrifice to flexibility, weight & breathability. While aerodynamics isn’t a primary concern in winter, the Flight Jacket Air is still cut close to the body for speedy performance. This lets you slip through the air easier & saves some precious energy as you’re not being dragged back by flapping fabric. An easy-sliding YKK Vislon zipper makes it quick & simple to regulate airflow & temperature. 3 back pockets can be loaded up for a day on the saddle. & with reflective details, you’ll be visible when the daylight begins to wane. ...
