Pearl Izumi Elite Men's Softshell Jacket

BLABL.jpg

Stormy skies are a poor excuse for calling off a ride, at least if you have dependable weather protection like the Pearl Izumi Elite Softshell Jacket. It employs Pearl's softshell material on the outside for protection and stretch, and the inside gets a boost of warmth from Elite Thermal Fleece. It all adds up to a jacket that keeps you warm come rain and cold, without turning into a personal sauna once you get warmed up.
Pearl Izumi built the Elite Softshell jacket from a three-layer fabric in order to boost weather protection while still remaining breathable. The foundation is Pearl's Elite Thermal Fleece, which is a highly breathable insulating material that's soft-to-the-touch. And by breathable, we mean that the moisture that builds up inside the jacket is able to be transported to the outside, where it quickly evaporate. The outer-layer is Pearl's Elite Softshell material, which provides excellent weather protection. And that weather protection gets a hefty boost from a windproof, waterproof membrane that sits between the two layers. And, not only will it shrug off light to moderate precipitation, but the protective membrane remains breathable for your comfort. After all, there's not much sense in sealing out the elements if it means that you're soaking in a miniature steam room anyway.
The cut of the Elite jacket is designed around Pearl's 'Semi-Form Fit.' In translation, this means that the upper-torso and upper-sleeves have an anatomic cut, which enable the jacket to move with your body, rather than bunching. Towards the bottom of the torso and sleeves, the fit relaxes, giving you some extra room for a comfortable range of motion. There's two pockets, one at the chest and one at the small of the back, and both are zippered. They'll go a long way to ensuring that the contents of your pockets are there for your whole ride. And to increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions, there are reflective panels placed throughout.
The Pearl Izumi Elite Softshell Jacket is available in five sizes from Small to XX-Large and in the colors Black/electric blue, Petrol Blue/black, Screaming Yellow/black, and True Red/black.

Price: $43.99 (74% Off!)
Regularly: $174.95
