Key elements of a waterproof cycling jacket



  1. Waterproofing: A good waterproof cycling jacket needs to be made from materials that prevent water from penetrating, keeping you dry during rainy rides. This is typically achieved using waterproof membranes or coatings.


  2. Breathability: A waterproof jacket should also be breathable to allow sweat and moisture from your body to escape. Look for jackets with ventilation zones or breathable fabrics to ensure comfort during intense rides.


  3. Fit: A well-fitting waterproof jacket should have an ergonomic design that allows freedom of movement without restricting your cycling posture. The jacket should fit snugly without being too tight, offering comfort while cycling.


  4. Packability: A great cycling jacket should be easy to pack when not in use. Many waterproof jackets are lightweight and can be folded into a small, compact size, making them easy to store in your jersey pocket or a bike bag when the weather improves.



Frequently Asked Questions


What do cyclists wear in the rain?


Cyclists wear waterproof clothing such as jackets, bib shorts, and tights designed specifically to keep them dry and comfortable while riding in the rain. Waterproof jackets and outer layers are key to blocking out water and wind, while moisture-wicking base layers ensure you stay dry on the inside.



How is breathability measured?


Breathability is often measured by the MVTR (Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate), which indicates how much moisture can escape through the fabric over a certain period. Higher MVTR values mean better breathability, which is crucial for staying comfortable during intense cycling in the rain.



What fit should I get?


Your waterproof cycling jacket or vest should offer a snug yet comfortable fit that accommodates movement while cycling. It should not be too tight, as this can limit movement, nor too loose, which can cause flapping in the wind. Look for clothes that offer a streamlined fit, with adjustable features such as cuffs and hems to secure the jacket in place.
