So, we finally got our fall/winter stuff in from Gore... and just in time, it seems! The rainy days, they are a comin'!
Some sweet pieces include:
The Phantom jacket. We've got both the ladies' and men's version. This softshell is water resistant and, with a quick zip, turns into a jersey complete with wind stopper vest. Pretty rad.
This year Gore has come out with a sweet hi viz colour - perfect for dazzling the eyes of Vancouver's drivers and ensuring they won't run you down in low visibility evenings.
For the serious road cyclist, we have the Oxygen, a lightweight, completely waterproof and breathable jacket. It's also got a handy dandy pouch to stuff the jacket into and stash in your jersey.
On the accessories side, we've got all the old favourites, starting with wind stopper arm, leg, and knee warmers to keep your external bits warm.
For the cold-fingered crew, there are Countdown gloves that keep you warm and cozy, even on the wettest of days. Synthetic leather palms make for a comfy ride and a velcro adjust on the wrist ensure that no rain runs up your cuffs and that they fit snugly underneath your jacket.
If you've already got a Gore jacket, we got some hoods in to keep the rain out of your eyes. We've also got helmet covers to keep your helmet hair from looking like drowned rat helmet hair...
