A lightweight packable shield against windchill – the GripGrab PACR Windproof Lightweight Vest is a versatile and minimalist addition to your kit, which could make all the difference to your comfort on cool windy days and long descents.

Featuring a windproof front panel made from premium Japanese windproof fabric, this vest will help shield your torso from oncoming air particles that induce windchill on cool windy days. The fabric is also treated with a PFC-free Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment – so it will shrug off light showers and front wheel spray.

The open mesh back panel on the gilet allows moisture and heat to escape from within – so even as you work hard, you don’t build up a chill-inducing sweat. An elasticated lower hem with silicone gripper dots on the back of the gilet keeps everything securely in place as you battle into those headwinds.

A two-way YKK® Vislon zip on the front of the gilet allows you to unzip from the top and allow airflow through your layers, or unzip from the bottom to allow for easier access to your jersey pockets beneath. Reflective details on the rear help to improve your presence on the road in low light conditions.

Reach the top of that climb. Pull this gilet from your jersey pocket. Zip up the high-cut collar and shield your torso from that uncomfortable windchill on a long descent that follows. This gilet is your packable windchill protection.
