Sportful Allure Softshell fietsjas voor dames

With the Sportful Allure softshell jacket you'll stay warm and dry, even as the temperatures dip towards zero or light rain gets added to the cocktail of British weather...modern fabrics and treatments make the Allure a tough-to-beat outer layer that will serve you from autumn right through to spring...The Allure's cosy warmth comes from the fleece-lined softshell material used in the main body and upper sleeves-windproof, water resistant and breathable thanks to the polyurethane membrane...Sportful have used Thermodrytex Plus on the under side of the sleeves, a slightly thinner, more stretchy material treated with a water repellent silicone finish. The jacket endured several 3+ hour rides in drizzle and temperatures of between 2 and 5 degrees and never once did I feel cold or sense excessive build-up of moisture. With one single thermal base layer I was perfectly warm at all times...With a short sleeved base layer the material used for the sleeves provides noticeable airflow to help regulate body temperature, it's really effective...Sportful make a modest claim in their spiel about both softshell and Thermodrytex: they are 'water repellent'. Drizzle and spray water simply beaded and rolled off, even consistently light rain did not penetrate the soft shell outer...The fit of the jersey did not impress me quite as much as its performance. The jacket is generous in length, both in the body and on the arms. That's fine and can be considered a plus. It also has a super high collar which is perfect for really cold days. However, while it fitted well I found it excessive around the midriff and arms...It is a quality piece of kit that lends itself well to use in a variety of weather conditions so is worth the investment if you know that a Sportful cut fits you well.
