Deals 🔔 Triban RC500, Cycling EN1150 Visible Winter Jacket, Men’s Road & Gravel Biking ⭐

Our EN1150-certified jacket was born of a bold ambition: to make you visible from 360° on all roads, no matter the time of day. So you don’t need to worry.

Our design team has designed this “softshell” jacket to keep you warm and visible in winter. Without limits.

The EN1150 visibility standard

The effectiveness of this jacket’s visibility has been certified by an external Finnish laboratory according to the very demanding EN1150 standard. It guarantees excellent visible during the day (thanks to the neon yellow) and at night (very powerful reflective patches). The standard also requires 360° visibility. You will therefore always be visible to drivers in any conditions.

The purpose of a cycling jacket

The third layer is the layer that protects you from the elements, for instance the cold and the wind, while the underneath layers offer warmth and breathability. By wearing a suitable cycling jacket, you will maintain your performance and comfort, whatever the weather.
This RC500 cycling jacket keeps you nice and warm with its integrated, removable neck gaiter. The adjustable vents let perspiration escape

Warmth

A product’s ability to protect from the cold. It depends on the material’s thermal resistance and how much air can pass through it. The higher its thermal resistance, the more the product retains the heat produced by the body while cycling.

Breathability

To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we measure its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower its resistance, the more it lets water vapor produced by the body escape, therefore the more breathable it is.
• RET <6: Extremely breathable, suitable for most intense workouts
• RET 6 to 12: Very breathable, designed for moderate exercise
• RET 12 to 20: Moderately breathable, not enough for exercise
• RET >20: Little breathability, unsuitable for exercise

Care tips

Machine wash at 86°F. Synthetics cycle. Turn the article inside out. Use a minimal amount of laundry detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Line-dry in a warm, ventilated area. Do not tumble dry. Do not dry clean. Do not bleach. Do not place on a heater to dry.

What is a “softshell”?

A “softshell” is a garment that is windproof and often stretchy to allow very good freedom of movement. A softshell is water-repellent (protection from drizzle or splashes from the road), but isn’t waterproof like a “hardshell”. On the other hand, the membrane provides good breathability (ability to let water vapor generated by the body during exercise escape) and is therefore suited to sports activities.
