Showers Pass, in the remote mountains of northwest California, is a favorite place for great bicycle riding, but one must be prepared with raingear as there are no services for many miles. We were dissatisfied with the bulk of many products on the market, and made our first rain jackets from Goretex because this was the only waterproof fabric that we knew. Since 1997, Showers Pass has designed bicycle apparel that has superior ventilation and durability using technical fabrics from 3 continents. Our line of clothing includes products made from eVent, Pertex, Gore Windstopper, Goretex, and Ultrex. For each of our products every material and design element is carefully considered and subjected to rigorous field-testing. We now make a full line of outdoor clothing including rain pants, vests, and cycling beanies. Showers Pass technical sportswear has been used extensively by randonee riders and on European bicycle tours because it is light, durable, and has understated style. Our women’s rain jacket is a very popular design because of its cut and comfort on long rides. Our website also sells other performance bike gear like Tufo bicycle tires and gel bicycling gloves.
