Our iconic Elite 2.1 cycling jacket features Elite™ 3-Layer ripstop fabrics, body-mapped to maximize breathability and waterproof/windproof protection. When temperatures rise, the Elite 2.1 rises to the occasion with core vents, adjustable cuffs, and a large back vent. Reflective trim is visible from all angles. A large back pocket and chest pocket with audio port provide plenty of storage space for keys, a flat repair kit, and energy bars. Extra-long sleeves provide full wrist coverage and comfortably accommodate reach while on the bike (or, our customers tell us, while paddling or running!). This jacket is compatible with our Rain Hood, sold separately here.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
When washing, use a gentle cycle, with COOL water. If your washing machine does not have a COOL setting, use the COLD setting. Close all zippers and make sure pockets are empty.
We recommend using a free and clear detergent or a detergent specifically designed for technical garments. Traditional detergents, particularly powdered detergents can leave residues that can negatively affect the performance of your garment. Avoid all products with fabric softeners or bleach. Grangers Performance Wash is a great option.
Avoid excessive heat. Seam tape can fall apart in a dryer, and it is not a pretty sight. Excessive heat (even a car dashboard in the summer) can also cause multi-layered waterproof fabrics to delaminate.
