Must Try Harder
- Location
- Fife, Scotland
This excellent jacket has been worn only a handful of times - only once on my bike - so is in excellent, almost as new, condition. I don't wear it on the bike as I don't go out when it's too cold or icy as I use my turbo trainer instead.
Size MEDIUM.
The good bit about the jacket is that it is reversible Black/Flou Yellow one side and Silver Grey on the other.
Being high contrast Black/Flou Yellow on one side means it makes you very visible in all light conditions (yellow is no good when there is a low sun in your face). There is also lots of reflective logos, stripes and designs on the jacket so can great for being seen from car lights too.
It is sold as a commuting jacket but is more of an all round jacket as it is quite a slim fit so doesn't flap around while cycling.
I'm 5'9", approx 40" chest and 32"waist and you can see from the photos I have room for more than one layer underneath (I'm wearing just a t-shirt under the jacket in the pics).
In addition to the large rear pocket, there are two zipped chest pockets.
Robust GORE-TEX® reversible jacket with integrated hood to protect against the rain. Jacket is equipped with strategically placed reflectors and neon-colour for better visibility.
NOTE: There is two tiny black marks on the rear side of the jacket. Not sure what it is but it won't come off with soapy water or using washing powder (this jacket has not been washed in a washing machine). Also as I've mainly worn it with the silver grey side out there is a little colour transfer from my jeans that you can see in the 3rd photo. It's not bad and just along the bottom of the flou yellow parts. It is difficult to photograph but best to let you know as it doesn't take anything away from the jacket.
