General description:

The Craft ADV Bike Subz Insulate Jacket W is an insulated cycling jacket, ideal for cold to very cold temperatures. It incorporates high-performance materials that ensure good thermal insulation without compromising freedom of movement. Its design is functional with careful details for the specific needs of cyclists, such as practical pockets and reflective elements for safety.

Technical details:

1. Insulation and thermal protection:

   • This jacket uses a synthetic insulation material (often a type of polyester or Primaloft® ), which offers excellent heat retention while being lightweight and breathable. The insulation is designed to retain body heat without overheating.
   • Insulation is strategically placed to protect areas most vulnerable to the cold, such as the torso and arms, while maintaining good breathability in the back and under the arms.

2. Outer fabric:

   • The outer fabric of the jacket is wind-resistant and has some waterproofing , providing protection against light weather such as drizzle or snow. However, it is not completely waterproof, making this jacket a great choice for cold but dry or slightly damp days.
   • The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating helps repel water, but it is primarily designed to provide protection against splashes or light rain, not heavy rain conditions.

3. Ventilation and aeration:

   • Mesh panels or more breathable areas are integrated into the back and under the arms, to allow excess heat and moisture to escape. This prevents the overheating effect, especially during intense efforts.
   • The front zipper is often equipped with an adjustable ventilation system, allowing the jacket to be opened or closed as needed to regulate body temperature.

4. Cut and fit:

   • The cut of the jacket is ergonomic, designed specifically for cycling, offering good freedom of movement while being adjusted to limit wind turbulence.
   • Elastic cuffs and an adjustable waist help keep the jacket in place and keep the cold out.
   • It also features an extended rear length to better protect the lower back while riding.

5. Practical details:

   • Back pockets : Like most cycling jackets, it has pockets on the back, often with zippers, to store items like energy bars, a phone, gloves or repair tools.
   • Interior pocket : extra space for personal items or keys.

6. Visibility and security:

   • Reflective details are integrated in strategic locations, such as on the shoulders, arms and back, to improve the rider's visibility in low light conditions (early morning, evening or cloudy weather).

7. Removable hood:

   • Some versions of the jacket can be equipped with a removable hood , providing additional protection against rain or wind. This hood is often adjustable for a good fit, even when wearing a helmet.

Ideal use:

• Cold Conditions : Perfect for winter outings or cold days where good insulation is needed to maintain body heat.
• Road cycling or mountain biking : Well suited to different types of cycling, it protects from the wind while being light enough not to hinder movement.

Highlights:

• Excellent thermal insulation and moisture management.
• Wind protection and light protection against moisture.
• Reflective details for added safety.
• Practical pockets to store essentials.
• Feminine and fitted cut , while offering great freedom of movement.
