The striking details of reflective jacket

reflective jacket

Let me introduce a new kind of reflective jacket for you, it’s not only a normal safety jacket. One of the striking details of this reflective jacket is the cuffs. These include the possibility of passing the thumb by the sleeve increase the thermal protection of the palm and back of the hand (not the toes). With pleasant temperatures could replace some thin gloves but not in low temperatures which obviously would have to wear gloves to protect your whole hand. They do not bother anything when wielding canes or handlebar bike, indeed, even a little pad and avoid rubbing. If you prefer not to use it is comfortable and not too annoying, is only a small bend in the handle of the safety jacket.

It incorporates two side pockets elastic mesh (13.5 × 9.5 cm) on the outside, which saves objects the size of a pair of sunglasses, mobile phone, gels or energy bars, keys, etc. and even mp3 as it has a small hole for the cable. They also have an overlap in the opening prevents the loss of what goals within. Extremely useful to handy things as they are very accessible.

It also has a large pocket inside at the bottom of the jacket with reflective tape. This is open, without closures, but can be used for example to temporarily leave the gloves so that you do not take the wind and even the skins of short descents.

Also it has three ventilation areas to increase perspiration in high-intensity aerobic exercise. They are key areas because they are the best to evaporate excess sweating without interfering with other items such as a backpack. These openings are of a significant size which is very positive for ventilation but also allows entry if the wind blows hard.

Here we could find the weak point or “Achilles heel” of the jacket because when you’re under strong wind enters the air around the inside of the jacket. Indeed you will cool and dehumidify what may be good but also can leave you cold. So in bad weather does not replace a third ply windbreaker or a reflective raincoat in case of rain.

It also includes a very comprehensive shooter to use it only with a gloved finger and zip. Detallazo also come a spare in case we are a bit big hands and we carry. The top of the rack (which, incidentally, has not given me any problems when opening and closing the jacket) at the mouth and neck has a reflective fabric reinforcement to this area does not bother us.
