Outwit the cold.

There are two very persuasive sides to our annual internal argument about riding outside during winter. On one side, it's important to maintain form, build base miles, and it's just a lot of fun. On the other side, it can be cold. Depending on your local climate, it can be very, very cold. Fortunately for those of us who want to get out on the bike but sometimes have trouble with the "very, very cold" argument, we have the option of turning to Pearl Izumi's Elite Softshell 180 Jacket. As its name implies, the 180 Jacket also has two sides that perform two distinct purposes, one for protection and one for insulation. The two combined create an ideal system to regulate your microclimate during cold-weather rides, answering both sides of the argument by letting you ride in comfort.


The jacket's front consists of Elite Soft Shell fabric, which provides wind and water resistance, repelling the elements from the side of your body that leads you into them. The back is made of Elite Thermal Fleece fabric, which provides insulation to keep you warm but is also more breathable. That means that it evacuates moisture, keeping you dry and preventing the cold clamminess that often follows a hard effort in cool temperatures. The Thermal Fleece also has a bit more stretch in it, so it doesn't restrict your shoulders while you're stretched out on the handlebars.


The jacket comes in Pearl Izumi's semi-form fit, which translates to a non-bulky jacket that can comfortably accommodate a heavy base layer for severe cold, a lightweight base layer with arm warmers, or — well, you get the idea. Its highly functional fabrics are complemented by a fit that allows for virtually unlimited cold-weather adaptability, whether you're wearing it on its own or combined with other pieces of winter kit. An internal flap eliminates drafts coming in through the front zipper, further sealing the elements out and warmth in. The large zippered rear pocket has an internal divider, so you don't have to worry about your gel blocks mixing with your keys and personal effects, and reflective elements help keep you visible in low-light conditions.


The Pearl Izumi Elite Soft Shell 180 Jacket - Women's is available in six sizes ranging from X-Small to XX-Large in the colors Black/crimson, Blackberry/purple haze, and Dazzling Blue.
