BTWIN Men’s EN 1150 Certified Reversible Gilet – Black/Hi

Stay visible while protecting yourself from the wind and cold. With neon colours and reflective strips, this jacket is designed to be seen both day and night.This sleeveless jacket is reversible, so there’s no need to bring something less visible to change into. Turn it inside out for a more discreet and stylish look.

WHAT DOES CERTIFIED VISIBILITY MEAN?

This urban cycling PPE gilet, which is certified according to standard EN1150, comes in a fluorescent colour approved for daytime visibility and has reflective strips for visibility at night.
The reflective parts have been positioned based on the constraints of cycling (leaning forwards, wearing a backpack, etc.) to guarantee 360° visibility at night from up to 50 m away when picked up by car headlights.

THERMAL PROPERTIES

This gilet has been designed for city cyclists riding in cool weather. Remember that you will feel even cooler on an electric bike.
This gilet is composed of 2 parts: the front part is made from windproof fabric to protect your chest and neck (magnet on the neck) from cool breezes as you cycle, while the padded zones keep you warm.
The back is composed of an open mesh to let perspiration escape and to help you dry out faster as you exercise.

HOW IS THIS GILET DESIGNED FOR URBAN MOBILITY?

This gilet is designed for the position you are in when cycling. Its shape covers the lower back and the neck (thanks to a magnetic collar) while cycling, providing excellent protection.
It has two hand pockets (non-neon side) and one chest pocket (neon side) for carrying your phone. The pockets are zipped for added security.

WHAT ABOUT RAIN PROTECTION?

This gilet can be worn under a city cycling rain jacket or poncho for even more protection against the cold and wet. Adapt your kit to the weather and intensity of your pedalling to stay comfortable all year round.
