A lightweight cycling jacket with a certain je ne sais quoi.

As a cyclist, you always tend to focus on a new cycling kit geared towards the typical lycra look. With so many companies offering cyclists a contemporary and stylish look, gone are the days where the cyclist used to be a moving advertising board, with advertising and branding all over the jersey and shorts. Now, it seems subtlety is the name of the game and quality; the stylish look is what many a commuter or cyclist is looking for out on their daily rides.

Jacket Details

Description:

As Vulpine highlight, this is a stylish garment, and it is A lightweight cycling jacket with a certain je ne sais quoi.

The jacket in Green Moss and Blue is a style classic that has stood the test of time and is still popular today. The style and feel this time from across La Manche exudes French style and sophistication. The jacket is made from a breathable, rip-stop stretch fabric that is durable, hardwearing and built to last.

The stylish urban casual fit comes together in a restrained style that makes for an ultra-versatile light jacket or popular work overshirt. It has an inner zipped chest pocket to fit in various accessories. This is one of the many subtle attention to detail additions Vulpine is famous for. With that said, I particularly like the embossed logo on the jacket's sleeve, as this brings added identity and a unique feel to the product.

The jacket has a very smart look, and it not only looks on the cycle to work and as a casual garment to be worn at different points in the day.
