The ideal alternative for cool summer descents with a narrow aerodynamic cut. The main Pertex® Equilibrium material is characterized by its high weaving density, which makes it wind-resistant but still exceptionally breathable. Treated with a Fluorine-free DWR water repellent treatment that enhances the material's ability to repel water and dirt.

Material on the side panels and back is highly elastic, breathable and quick-drying. Vest is super lightweight and foldable in the back pocket. Complete with recycled silicone tape at the back and sides, as well as a recycled YKK™ NATULON® two-way zipper for easy fastening.

beautiful, great function and fit

Great gilet, perfect wind block, ultralight with good breathability. 180cm, 90kg, xl fits perfect. On a long ride on a sunny, but really windy day (18-20 degrees C) it was the ideal choice over a short sleeve jersey - never too warm and never too chilly.

Perfect

The Alternative Wind Gilet is precisely what a good gilet should be. The front blocks wind totally, and the back is made of very breathable nearly mesh-like fabric. It is easily stored in a jersey's back pocket. I am 190 cm and 78 kg, size L is a perfect fit.

Back is beautifully breathable

The front blocks the wind perfectly, so you don’t get that icy chill hitting your chest. It keeps you warm without being bulky. The back is super breathable, which is honestly the best part. You won’t end up a sweaty mess after a few miles, which makes it ideal for rides or runs where you’re pushing yourself. It layers nicely without adding too much weight. Honestly, if you want something light, effective, and comfortable, I’d totally recommend it.

Das ist seine super Weste. Vorne schön winddicht und hinten super atmungsaktiv. Die Weste sitzt so gut wie ein Trikot und das beste, sie macht keine Windgeräusche. Selbst bei einer Abfahrt mit 80 km/h hat sie nicht geflattert. 5 Sterne und weiter so.

Super Weste, absolut Winddicht und sehr bequem zu tragen. Wie immer ist die Verarbeitung TOP. Die Gummibündchen halten die Weste exakt am Körper und nichts rutscht hoch. Das Netzgewebe an der Rückseite lässt den Schweiß gut durch. Bei der Größe habe ich wie immer S gewählt (178cm, 68kg).
