What is good about the Pearl iZUMi Womens Elite Barrier Convertible Jacket

 

Versatile jacket – features zip off sleeves for use as a jacket or a vest. One-piece integrated sleeve construction makes it easy to remove and store the sleeves and a back zippered pocket is included for removable sleeve storage. Leave the sleeves on if it’s cold or wet, and when all you need is a vest, the sleeves zip off and stow in the back pocket.

Great performance – with a semi form fit for added performance, the jacket’s Elite Barrier fabric is highly breathable while shedding wind and light precipitation. The soft micromesh on the inner collar adds a soft feel against your neck and is included for added cold weather luxury. You can also open the direct vent back panel for a little extra airflow during a long hill climb.

Convenient pockets – include two handy zippered hand pockets and a hidden zippered chest pocket

Cycling safety – reflective elements on this jacket for low-light visibility. This jacket is also available in screaming yellow.

What customers say about the Pearl iZUMi Womens Elite Barrier Convertible Jacket

 

Rating:

There were lots of positive reviews for this cycling jacket. One reviewer stated I purchased this jacket when the seasons changed. I’m very satisfied with it so far. It’s warm without being overbearing. It works well as a top layer on cold days with heartier fabrics underneath.

Numerous reviewers said I love this jacket!!! Being able to convert it and place the sleeves in the back pocket is wonderful and the bright yellow is easily visible. Only problem is that the size runs really small.

This cyclist mentioned I wear it all the time at night or in overcast weather, though I must admit it is not nearly AS visible that one or two weeks a year when the leaves on the trees are the same bright yellow. I also wear it as a weather barrier over my Pearl Izumi Insula-Tour winter cycling jacket as an additional barrier against wind and weather.

Again, several reviewers said this lightweight jacket/vest is perfect for cool mornings that heat up after a couple of hours. It easily converts to a vest and the one piece sleeve combination easily packs into a pocket. Great product.
