Insulation that can breathe. This action cut bike jersey with Polartec® Alpha padding offers outstanding heat retention paired with best breathability for high endurance touring in cold weather conditions.

The softshell material in the lower part is equipped with a membrane to protect you from wind and moisture. Elastic inserts made from soft, stretchy Vuelta material offer a full range of motion for the arms. A back zip pocket and side mesh pockets help stow essentials when biking without a pack.

Technology:

- bluesign® is the worlds most stringent standard for environment, consumer and workforce protection. All environment-relevant production aspects are assessed and permanently optimized: materials, energy, water, water and air emissions, noise levels, waste, handling of hazardous substances. Products made at least 90% of bluesign® certified materials are marked as ´bluesign® approved fabric´.

- Brushed Nylon LYCRA®. With a sensously soft hand, it is very comfortable and a pleasure to wear. Vuelta also offers outstanding breathability, high abrasion resistance and an antibacterial treatment.

- Polartec® Alpha® is the latest evolution of synthetic insulation offering a rare combinationof lightweight warmth and true breathability in a ´puffy´ style garment.Because Polartec® Alpha® insulation is highly durable and more stable than other synthetic insulation products, more open-construction woven face and back fabrics can be selected to create an air permeable package.This small amount of airflow rapidly draws moisture away from the body and allows Polartec® Alpha® to be worn in a wider range of activities compared to classic ´vapor barrier´ style insulation.

- The fabrics stretch comes from either spandex in the fabric or from the type of knit or weave used for the material. This offers maximum freedom of movement.

- VAUDE products bearing the Eco Finish been waterproofed in an environmentally-friendly way without fluorocarbons (PFC). PFCs are part of a group of chemical compounds which are used to waterproof the outer layer of many outdoor products. They have come under criticism for being non-biodegradable, bioaccumulative and toxic, and suspected of being harmful to health. VAUDE has made a clear commitment to completely renouncing PFCs.

- Products with this logo have body-hugging cuts and are especially designed to accommodate the seating position of road racers and mountain bikers.
