"An antitode to the utilitarian norm. This showerproof jacket is as functional as it is stylish." The Independent, 8th Dec 2009

The Cyclodelic Kimono Soft Shell is a glamorous take on the traditional light weight performance jacket designed as a year round solution to changeable weather. Ideal for cool morning commutes, long weekend rides or sudden showers, the softshell's tailored fit and subtle details make it the perfect multi purpose jacket looking as good off the bike as on it.

Fabric and Fittings: 

Made from a soft polyester microfibre with a DWR (Durable Water Repellant) finish. Soft, silent, lightweight and quick drying and can be folded up small. Silver reflective stripes have been positioned for maximum visibility on rear zips and at sides of the jacket. 

Available in sophisticated black or striking china blue offset with high quality YKK Excella Zips in a gold finish.

Features:

• Easy reach rear cycling pockets
• Subtle heart stitch detail around pockets
• Glamorous kimono sleeves add ease across back for a good fit whilst cycling
• Slim tailored fit at waist and hips
• Cut lower at the back
• Made in England
• Windproof, Showerproof, Lightweight and Quick Drying
• High collar 
• Reflective piping at rear zip pockets and hips

Fit:

The kimono sleeves enable maximum comfort across the back & arms even in low down riding positions, whilst  the extra long cuffs keep your wrists warm and add a hint of old school movie star glamour. We gave our jacket a gentle hourglass shape with strategically placed rear pockets for ease of access & maximum form flattery. Cut slightly longer at the back so you can pedal on, assured that you won't be exposing yourself to that nice family in the car behind you!

How we wear it:

Perfect for all seasons; In autumn & winter layer cashmere or merino bases underneath, they keep you toasty whilst the soft lightweight microfibre keeps the wind & rain out. In spring & summer it can be worn alone over a t-shirt or vest & the peachskin microfibre feels smooth & cool against the skin, just perfect for long summer eves or keeping out traditional English drizzle.
