Very effective at keeping the wet out
I'm not giving this five stars as it has a bit of a weird cut – it's very tight at the hips but loose around the neck and arms. That being said, I took it for a test-ride in the pouring rain and it did a great job of keeping my upper half dry. So, while I'm not crazy about the fit, I think it'll grow on me.Show full review -

Super solid
Easily packed into your jersey back pocket. Keeps you dry in a light-ish rain. Easily washed. Unbelievably good looking. And what I appreciate the most is that wearing 2 Isadore long sleeve merino layers with this jacket was enough during all my winter rides so far (up to -5 degrees). It's a bit on the smaller size - I'm 170cm, 65kg and let's say the fit is quite aerodynamic. Also I must say, I was a bit 'nervous' about the zipper as many of the reviews complain about it but it works just fine for me. No problem zipping and unzipping the jacket without stopping. Idk, I just love the jacket just as much as I love all my Isadore products.Show full review -

Magical but not perfect
Let's get one thing out of the way first: this windbreaker is over US$200. It's pricey and premium. The overall concept and design of this piece is pretty amazing: the smoky transparent material feels magical and looks amazing. I like the little bits of reflective trim around the cuffs and waist. And the signature shoulders allow the jacket to stand out and something special. I haven't worn it in a light rain yet. The one flaw is more of a minor annoyance- the zipper is difficult if not impossible to pull upward with one hand. The windflap material (behind the zipper) gets caught in the zipper quite easily. I need two hands to zip up all the way. Also, the two vent zips are a great idea, but again I cannot close them with one hand. Overall, I think this is one special jacket that I'll be carrying around most rides.Show full review -

The Essential Jacket really is essential
This is a very great product. The front and the back resists water and the wind yet breath, while the sides stretch and breath more. Front pockets release heat and moisture (just like the Softshell Jacket). Stretch fittings as part of the sides and the arms keep this jacket well fitting. The front vent pockets release moisture and heat allowing for a broader temperature range of use. Reflective elements and the partially transparent look is extremely cool. The fit of this jacket is fitted and consistent with the Marsala Merino Membrane Softshell Jacket and assisted with the sizing tool provided. I also love the information blurbs on the display models; it helps make sizing decisions. This product also rolls up into a size that fits into a back pocket. Only possible improvement could be a back pocket.Show full review -

Surprisingly versatile jacket
I think this jacket will get used a lot in the coming years. I was surprised with how long I kept this jacket on. You will need to realise that this jacket is only water resistant which means a constant downpour will force the water through. However, this is not a bad things at all, this trade off was probably made so that this jacket is more breathable and handles a wider comfortable temperature range. I was perfectly comfortable with this jacket on top of Isadore's merino arm armers, climbers jersey and membrane gilet riding through the Welsh mountains at 3am. My ride went from valley descents into pockets of really cold air to riding up 16% monsters with a pannier. The jacket took care of them all through out the night. I really rate the minimal features in terms of pockets and anything else that adds unnecessary bulk. The jacket is very packable and even though it feels flimsy, it appears to be hard wearing and doesn't snag on things easily. My other jackets in the wardrobe will be getting very jealous of my new favourite.Show full review -

Brilliant jacket
I don't like flappiness, so the race fit is perfect (1.85m/75kg=Size M), good length. Breathes well (with the vents to get rid of moisture), and keeps me dry. Love the fact you can see the shirt underneath. Packable, but on the bulky side, and it is slightly over-styled - shoulder yolk detail is not so much to my taste. But a great product in every other respect.Show full review -

The Essential Jacket
It's very well named as I wouldn't be without it.When I took it out of the box I didn't believe such a lightweight jacket could possibly be windproof and waterproof,but it has kept me dry even on4-5 rides in constant heavy rain.Folds up and fits nicely in a rear pocket. Perhaps Isadore could apply the waterproofing technology to bib tights? I've bought many so called waterproof jackets over the years but The Essential Jacket is the only one that does exactly what it says!Show full review -

The Essential Jacket M & Long Sleeve Jersey Indigo Blue M
J'ai été séduit par la ligne des vêtements Isadore. Discrets et élégants la veste de pluie et le maillot en mérinos remplissent leur fonction. Pour pouvoir rouler sans être déguisé par des publicités criardes. La qualité est au rendez vous. Je mesure 1m70 pour 67 kg , j'ai pris une taille M. La veste taille un peu juste. Question service clientèle, super réactivité, la veste a été échangé en quatre jours. Et en plus un cadeau surprise ,la casquette Isadore. ISADORE, J'ADORE.!!!Show full review -

Mr
Had this jacket now for about two years. Initially, very pleased with looks and fit. Size M is perfect for my 183cm/78kg. Water resistance was also good, but has decreased constantly. Now, it is nonexistant. 20 mins in light spray leave my arms and chest soaked. Waterproof spray doesn't help. So essentially, the jacket is only good as windbreaker. For that, it is neither very breathable nore exceptionally packable. In addition, zipper always gets caught in that piece of fabric below, so taking the jacket on an off on the bike is an adventure. When reporting the issues to Isadore, they excused, but offered no help.Show full review -

top !!!
Produit ideal lorsque le temps est incertains. Utilisé lors d'une sortie pluvieuse et venteuse je n'ai pas été trempé mais je suis resté au sec, et je n'ai pas ressenti le froid du vent qui se leva. Elle est tres legere de part son poids mais aussi de part sa coupe. La coupe est tres tres ajustée au depart lors du deballage du carton mais en fait cela est normal n'ayez pas peur elle est faite pour ca et se porte comme ca .Sa coupe tres ajusté lui permet de ne pas flotter ni de faire de plis elle est donc tres tres aerodynamique et parfaite meme y compris et surtout pour des competitions. On ne la sent pas sur soi (on l'oublie meme ) se place facilement ds la poche centrale arriere a condition de prendre le temps de la plier correctement. Aucun point negatif sauf l'absence d'une petite poche qui permettrait de mettre au moins quelques barres ;) Un produit parfait, un must a toujours prendre avec soi 171 cm 62 kg taille XSShow full review -

Nice product and good sizing advice on the web. Small minus is the width of the neck collar. For me 1,79cm, 75kg it is far too wide and while cycling air streams in. On the other hand, if it is colder you can wear easily a buff around your neck and will still fit.Show full review -

Excellent jacket, awful zipper
The jacket is very small and fits easily in the jersey's back pocket. It keeps wind and rain away and ventilates body heat when closed. But, the Zipper is awful to manage on the bike, and 110% of the time, it gets stuck in the fabric around the Zipper. Please, Isadore, redesign everything around the Zipper. The rest of the jacket is fantastic!Show full review -
