Pearl Izumi Women's Expedition Cycling Alpha Jacket

The Expedition Alpha takes the top step when it comes to delivering dynamic, thermoregulating protection against cold on the bike. Quilted panels of Polartec® Alpha Direct provide women’s- specific insulation placement along the front of the jacket, arms and shoulders. DWR treated weather-resistant ripstop composes the remainder of the jacket, and the insulation-free back and side panels allow excess heat to escape so you stay in the comfort zone. A silicone hemline grip and encased elastic cuffs combine to make for an draft-free ride. Whether you’re rolling out the fat bike or need extra warmth for nights spent bikepacking, the Expedition Alpha provides light-and-capable protection for the adventure-minded rider. Even better, it's made with upcycled materials.
