Endura Gridlock Cycling Jacket

Endura Gridlock Waterproof Cycling Jacket

Endura Gridlock Waterproof Cycling Jacket

Cycling in winter can be a tricky business. Because cycling is a cardiovascular activity, your body is going to want to breathe and sweat when it gets too hot. Most normal jackets don’t have a sufficient level of breathability to cope with cycling. So while your good old bomber jacket may keep the rain off, you will inevitably end up sweating up a storm when cycling with it on.

Buying a cycling specific jacket would certainly be a good idea and Endura’s Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket is a great choice. It is a medium weight waterproof, breathable jacket with a fast wicking/fast-dry mesh liner that will ensure that that sweat storm is kept at bay. And for those days that you are really pushing it, the jacket comes with underarm ventilation zips and shoulder vents to maximise your comfort and temperature circulation.

The Endura Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket is constructed with a 2 layer ripstop fabric that is both hardy and machine washable. The fast dry design of this jacket means that you won’t have to ring it out after a ride in the rain. Wet weather comfort is further guaranteed with a waterproof snap-down puller zip chest pocket, storm flaps and seam sealing. All zips on the Endura Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket are YKK for further quality and peace of mind.

The rear stowage pockets on the Endura’s Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket are another handy addition as valuables such as keys, mobile phones and wallets can be easily stored and protected. Of course, when it comes to commuting, visibility is of the utmost importance and safety. The bright colours and reflective strips on the sleeves, front, sides and back of the Endura Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket are hard to miss and provide excellent visibility.

One thing worth mentioning is that the Endura Gridlock waterproof cycling jacket is designed for commuters and weekend cyclists. Because this is a medium weight jacket, top-level cyclists will find it a bit uncomfortable and heavy on those long, intense hauls.
