The hybrid Vento Jacket is made from a 160 gram lightweight merino wool blend with Tencel™ Lyocell fibers. The fine AlpineWool® merino wool, which comes from mountain sheep, is soft and has odor-neutralizing properties just like the Tencel™ fiber. The natural fiber Tencel™-Lyocell is obtained from the renewable raw material wood in an environmentally friendly process. Due to its smooth fiber surface with high evaporation properties, it is characterized by excellent moisture management. The merino wool blend is also reinforced with polyamide fibers for even greater durability and longevity.
The wind jacket was designed using the body mapping principle, in which different materials are positioned on different parts of the body to achieve the best possible functionality. At the front, we use a wind-repellent yet breathable nylon Tencel™ insert that fits well and does not flap even at high bike speeds. The wind jacket comes in a sporty fit and, with its longer back section, has been specially designed for the demands of bike tours. The sleeves are tailored and cut extra long so that the wrist remains well protected even when biking.
Features such as the stylish, contrasting zipper pocket at the back, the full-length front zipper and the high collar that protects against draughts make the wind jacket the ideal companion on any bike, gravel or bike to climb tour. For additional visibility, the wind jacket has coral red neon reflective stripes that reflect the light of car headlights in the dark.
