Three things I liked

  • The panels of different materials are exactly what you need on a bike
  • The colour is great for visibilty, which I think you need in cold weather
  • Front pockets keep my hands toasty when stopped

Three things I’d change

  • Inside chest pocket could be big enough to fit a phone
  • The darker shade material would do better on the lower back (it’s really hard to get clean)
  • Fleecy material on the inside of the neck would be a treat

Amanda is our resident pedaller, who loves the climbs as much as the descents. No genre of biking is turned down, though she is happiest when at the top of a mountain with a wild descent ahead of her. If you ever want a chat about concussion recovery, dealing with a Womb of Doom or how best to fuel an endurance XC race, she's the one to email.

    Great, thanks.

    Will the hood fit over a helmet?

    Pack size for that size small please?

    Would you say it’s enough, given the uninsulated bits, as your emergency layer for general cold-ish winter rides, say instead of e.g. a Montane Prism? It seems ideal for proper cold-weather riding, but that’s a bit of a niche on its own to justify the jacket.

    The back and underarms are a stretch PrimaLoft without the insulation

    PrimaLoft is the insulating material. I see it’s the Gold Active variant. Any info on its density (gsm), for comparison with non-biking insulated jackets please (given Endura don’t seem to disclose) ?

    I have the Gent’s version of this.
    Great piece of kit, really warm with good venting if things get too warm
    Even looks good of the bike too.
    Doesn’t fit over my POC helmet.
