A formidably protective piece of kit, the RIPARO Jacket is designed to keep your body warm during high intensity rides in sub-zero temperatures or strong winds. Insulating and breathable, Riparo – or ‘shelter’ – is the ultimate choice for high-intensity rides, intervals in start-stop conditions, climbs, descents, low temperatures and changeable conditions. It's crafted with Polartec® Alpha®, a proven temperature-regulating fabric known for its active insulation and ultra-high breathability, which rewards the rider as the effort intensifies.Constructed to actively insulate, this advanced fabric teams the ability to regulate the core by trapping and sealing in warmth with a hydrophobic outer meaning it releases excess body heat and moisture and dries rapidly before the rider gets any sense of clamminess. The design is rounded out with a windproof exterior and treated with a durable water repellency (DWR) finish for exceptional protection from the elements. Cut with just the right amount of freedom of movement, Riparo relies on a form-following, performance-focused fit. Small essentials can be stored in the small, zippered chest pocket, while large rear pockets can stow a smartphone, supplies, extra layers and spares. Reflective details let you ride freely and comfortably at all times. As its name suggests, Riparo is the go-to choice for the most frigid conditions when performance matters. The clock doesn’t stop just because it’s winter and you’re going long. Make the most of the cold spell and enjoy the sensation of shelter on your long rides, training sessions and race prep.
