As I weaved along single-track trails and through thick patches of fog, the Century jacket was an excellent choice for staying dry and warm while moving briskly. I layered it over my Ibex sun hoodie, and it was just enough to cut the cold without getting steamy.

May is National Bike Month, and the League of American Bicyclists made a Bingo card to help celebrate. We're big fans of bike month, and looked for the most “Showers Pass” row on the card. These squares are genuinely worth doing and sharing with your friends. We also added a couple of bonus activities just because we like ‘em. Grab your bingo marker and get rolling!

Independent media and independent brands have a lot in common.

Showers Pass isn't backed by a conglomerate or VC dollars. We're a small Portland-based team that believes weather shouldn't keep people from riding, and we build gear to prove it. The outlets we're partnering with aren't backed by big money either. They're run by people who care deeply about cycling and made a bet that readers would too. In these times of increasing consolidation, we think it’s important to call out the value of your support for independent brands and media. 

If you’re looking for ultimate performance in a cycling jacket, our Elite jackets are the clear choice due to lighter weight, greater ventilation, and unmatched on-the-bike fit. 

If you’re looking for one jacket that can do it all but still has Showers Pass’s cycling heritage in its DNA, the Refuge Jacket’s versatile cut and features make it a worthy companion for all your trips on trail and in town.
