  • Insulated brevet jacket.

    Yea or nae?

    when I hear 'insulated jacket' and cycling I think of my own particular bovril-scented musk that my transfer jacket generates after a couple of rides around town.

    The sale hooded rain jacket went back because I still can't get my head around their sizing, it sounds like the brevet jacket is equally confusing and I'll have gone from a standard medium to XL just based on chest size?

  • Definite yay from me.

    Been using it from 0-10c and it is rather nice. I probably wouldn't use it above that or if I were going out on a baw-oot chainy or something, but it is definitely a nice piece. Works well in the wet, too.

    My only gripe is that it is a little short in front, but I guess it is designed for riding, after all.

    I wear XL and I'm 6ft5 and 92kg.

  • Have both insulated brevet jacket & gilet.
    Changed my life.

    A Pro Team Jacket with insulated gilet on top works amazingly on those cold damp and misty mornings when I would normally wait for the mist clear before going out.... have a new appreciation for the beauty of cold misty winter mornings.

    If I had to choose one, it would be the gilet, as it's more versatile, but both are excellent and well thought out bits of kit.
    I like the fit. Am a small in PT, but find the fit a bit too 'pro' for anything longer than 3 or 4 hours. Small brevet gilet and jacket is perfect for me... I have brevet bibs in small too, but wish I'd gone XS in them as the bib straps are a bit loose.
