Rebound Showerproof Rain Jacket - Men's

Need a light weight, highly water-resistant jacket? The Endura Rebound Showerproof Rain Jacket fulfills those two basic needs and adds some stretch to make it comfortable like a second jersey. And thinking about how small this little jacket gets when it's packed away, we can't think of an excuse to not have one in your jersey pocket or pack before you head out into potentially wet weather.

And wet weather is exactly what Endura specializes in. They do their product testing in the Scottish highlands after all, where wind and constant mist can make an awful time of what could've otherwise been a great ride. The Rebound Jacket is made of Endura's Compact windstop stretch fabric. This fabric lacks any laminate or coating to create its moisture-proofness. Rather, its Compact fabric is densely woven and is Teflon treated to shed water like a duck's back. Since the fabric isn't sealed like a trash bag, you'll benefit from some permeability to allow sweat vapor to escape as you ride.

The Rebound Showerproof Jacket is light and highly packable. This is due to its design simplicity. Here, you won't find an array of useless gizmos or extra zippers -- only the full front zip to get you in. It serves as the ventilation access as well. Get too hot, simply unzip. The flatstitched seams are stylish, durable, and ensure that the Rebound Jacket will be comfy under pack straps. It has a zippered rear pocket to stow your snacks and car keys, and the long tail will keep your backside from the spray coming off your rear tire.

The Endura Rebound Showerproof Rain Jacket is available in Black/grey and Red/grey and comes in five sizes from Small to XX-Large. When you zip the tall collar, you'll be able to tug on the one-handed drawstring keeper to cinch the collar snug around your neck when you're riding dead into the wind. Scotchlite reflective material is used on the logos and a strip runs down the backside of each arm.
