We welcome our new softshell overlords.

With the Stretch Softshell Jacket, De Marchi has brought artificial intelligence out of the realm of sci-fi fantasy and into our cycling wardrobe. If decades of post-dystopian films about the rise of machines have taught us anything, it's that it's only a matter of time before this jacket takes over the world. If years spent alternating between shivering and sweating and then shivering in clammy sweat on winter rides has taught us anything, it's that subjugation is a small price to pay for cold-weather comfort.


The brain of the jacket is Schoeller's c_change membrane, which shows up in various items from De Marchi's Innovation line because it's borderline sentient. When the temperature ramps up, it reacts by opening and letting heat and moisture out; when the temperature falls, it dilates the other way, battening down the hatches for maximum insulation. It's also windproof and water-resistant, so the careful work that c_change does in regulating your microclimate's temperature won't be compromised by any external elements.


The fit is spacious enough for layering but anatomical so it doesn't create the pregnant hippo look when you're stretched out on the handlebars. It's like a slightly looser version of De Marchi's Thermal Racing Jacket. We appreciate the extra room for cold-weather gear, because it allows room for layering and adds insulating space behind the protective c_change's membrane. Just add a skintight base layer and this jacket will ride comfortably into temperatures approaching 30 degrees Fahrenheit.


The abrasion-resistant outer layer protects the c-change membrane so it can regulate your microclimate unhindered, and a zippered pocket protects your personal effects. The full-length zipper locks when the tab is down and slides open easily when the tab is pulled up at an angle for easy one-hand operation.
