Convertible Windproof Cycling Jacket
Size: Men's Small
Color: Bright Yellow

BRAND NEW with TAGS!


The Spire softshell convertible jacket blocks wind 30-50% more than the average softshell. The two-piece jacket features zippered removable sleeves that can be folded and stowed in middle back pocket. This pocket is not zippered but rather has a simple overlap for easy access with gloves. Two smaller pockets on back have a reflective trim for visibility when riding. While Polartec® Power Shield® Pro fabric blocks 99% of the wind, it remains breathable by construction. Combined to Vertexx panels on back, sides and underarm, moisture evacuation is increased while maintaining optimal core temperature.

Keep warm during your cold-weather ride with the Louis Garneau Men's Spire Convertible Jacket. This versatile jacket delivers optimal wind-resistance, warmth, and comfortable breathability. The removable sleeves provide a versatile design to transition for different environments.

Choices.

We've arrived at the most difficult time of year, with blustery mornings giving way to clear, brisk afternoons and making layering decisions nigh impossible to find the perfect balance between over- and under-dressed. Enter Louis Garneau and its Men's Spire Convertible Cycling Jacket, blending cooling breathability and wind-resistant warmth to comfortably weather breezy fall mornings and early winter chill. When it warms up a bit more than expected, removable sleeves quickly detach and stow stealthily in a rear pocket so you can get to work on honing next year's razor sharp tan lines.

Louis Garneau constructs this jacket using its Polartec Power Shield Pro material, featuring a three-ply construction with soft polyester sandwiching a polyurethane membrane and a water-repelling DWR surface treatment. This material isn't completely wind proof, but makes up for that small concession with significantly increased breathability compared to its wind proof compatriots. What little wind it does let through is said to channel into increased ventilation and faster drying, which means increased overall microclimate control. Strategically placed panels of soft, breathable Vertexx fabric serve to boost the Spire's breathability, further increasing comfort and minimizing clamminess during higher intensity efforts.

A truly worthwhile investment: with its long sleeves that can be removed depending on the weather, the Spire convertible jacket provides all-season comfort. For crisp fall days and wintertime workouts, the Spire's long sleeves showcase the qualities of this windbreaker that isolates from the cold as efficiently as it evacuates moisture. The properties of the Polartec® Power Shield® Pro fabric are just as significant when wearing the Spire in short-sleeve mode: it keeps your torso nice and warm while the underarms provide just enough cool to regulate your body heat. With its multiple-format back pockets, this hybrid jacket is an ideal choice for all the activities you take up as soon as summer ends… And until it returns!
