A weatherproof 3-layer softshell with a breathable rear panel engineered for racing in unpredictable spring and fall conditions. Now updated based on World tour input with a closer, more aerodynamic fit.
BEHIND THE PRODUCT
We updated the fit of our racing vest to more closely resemble that of the EQUIPE RS Jersey across the back, increasing click-fit comfort while maintaining a compressive, aerodynamic racingFit and shedding weight—down to 188g from 205g. The 3-layer softshell and breathable rear panel construction equips riders to race in the variable conditions of spring and fall by balancing the needs of weather protection with the risk of overheating during hard efforts.
TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
THE FINER DETAILS
FEATURED FABRICS
2XS is a 3-layer, breathable, windproof, and waterproof softshell. The inner face is lightly brushed for insulation, creating a warm microclimate for that weatherproof shell to protect. A back panel of Push Pull accelerates breathability and improves the aerodynamic fit without compromising protection.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our racingFit eliminates excess material for a lightweight, aerodynamic silhouette that accommodates summer or spring and fall layers underneath.
ENGINEERING
Double-slider Zipper: Unzip from top or bottom for ventilation or access to jersey pockets. Taped construction prevents leaking and stabilizer tab enables single-handed operation, even with gloves.
Raw Cut: The hem, armholes, and collar are finished with a raw cut to reduce weight, increase stretch, and accommodate layering.
Reflective Strip: A reflective strip down the center of the back maintains visibility in low-light conditions.
