What May Be the Perfect Cycling Jacket

22 Jan

I keep meaning to blog … But finally here I am :)

I think that I may have found the perfect cycling jacket, if not the perfect jacket. It’s Columbia’s Key Three jacket. It is a softshell jacket that almost made me think  ’there is no way’ when I opened the package. It is a pretty thin jacket but don’t let that deceive you!

A quick run down .. It’s stated to be waterproof, windproof, and a jacket to keep you warm in the winter without being big and bulky. 

In warmer weather I have worn this with something light underneath and it is really comfortable. Even better is that in cold weather I will wear this with a couple of layers under (typically 2 base layers) and stay equally cozy with it on. So far I have worn this in weather down to the teens and have stayed comfortable on my daily commute in to work. Who would have thought??

It does a fantastic job of blocking the wind and it even keeps you warm without making you too warm. In the rain … Yes, it does a great job there as well. 

Not one complaint about it!

Oh .. And it’s cute too :)

As a daily commuter I am constantly looking for the perfect commuting gear and I think my quest for a jacket may be done. If you ride outside or participate in any outdoor sports I highly recommend giving this jacket a look. It comes in men’s and women’s styles. My niece wants one so bad but I told she has to get a bit bigger first since they don’t make them in kids’ sizes!
