Giordana Biking Jackets Information

Giordana cycling jackets are designed specifically as road biking apparel -- of course you can wear them whenever and wherever you want. All jackets from the manufacturer have a slight drop tail that covers your back side while you are bent in a slightly aggressive riding position. The front is cut a bit shorter to prevent bunching caused by excess fabric, and the sleeves are long enough to cover your arms and wrists while you reach for the handlebars -- this is completely normal with any tailored cycling jacket. Giordana jackets have an ergonomic cut that is either form-fitting or a slightly more generous fit that accommodates more body types. The close fit is important because it allows the fabric to effectively wick moisture from your skin, and it also prevents the biking jacket from flapping in the wind!

Windproof Giordana jackets use a wind and water resistant outer membrane backed by a soft inner layer. The outer layer protects from the elements, while the inner layer pulls moisture away from your skin to keep you dry, and gives the bike jacket a comfy, cozy feel. Features like high collars, soft arm cuffs, and elastic waist grippers seal out the cold air. Men’s and women’s Giordana jackets have three rear pockets and full length locking zippers that make unzipping the jacket with one hand a breeze. The locking mechanism ensures that the jacket doesn’t inadvertently unzip and let in cold air. Zipper garages at the top hem protect your chin from the zipper pull, and at the bottom prevent the pull from snagging your cycling tights. Cold weather doesn’t mean that you can’t get kitted up like a pro: Giordana winter cycling jackets come in styles that match perfectly to the biking tights and jerseys in the collection.

Giordana cycling rain jackets have a micro-porous membrane that allows sweat to escape while preventing water from entering. Except for soft mesh in the collar, they are unlined, which makes them extremely lightweight and packable. They can easily be tucked into a bike jersey pocket and taken out during an untimely rain shower. Giordana rain jackets are often translucent so that your cycling kit or race number can be seen underneath.
