Review & Description

If you get a block from your house before you notice the dark clouds on the horizon, turn back and grab the Pearl Izumi Womens Elite Barrier Jacket, just in case. This highly packable jacket provides windproof, water-resistant protection from the elements that makes it well worth the slight detour. A full-length draft flap along the zipper, as well as elasticized cuffs and hem, seals in the warmth when you hit the edge of the cold front. Reflective piping and logos (including a sweet swirl on the sleeve) make you more visible to passing motorists as lighting conditions deteriorate. Now that you have the jacket on, tuck your chin into the microfleece collar and pedal like crazy to outrun the storm.

About Pearl Izumi
More than 50 years ago in Tokyo, a father produced Japan's first bicycle racing apparel for his son, a promising racer. He named his soon-to-be-established company Pearl Izumi, derived from the gem "pearl" and an area of Japan known for its clear water ("Izumi"). Literally translated, the name means "fountain of pearls." Distributed in the U.S. since 1981, Pearl Izumi USA sponsored the U.S. national team in 1984 and several major trade teams during the mid-'80s, helping the company earn an almost cult-like following among cyclists. The Pearl Izumi USA line is dedicated to meeting the needs of the serious sport enthusiast, including not just cyclists but cross-country skiers, triathletes, duathletes, runners, and more.
