When I shook it out of the packaging it felt like scuba suit material. I was worried about that, as I didn't want to sweat in a bag. But how they used some scuba like material and made it into proper biking gear, was very high tech. Good armpit vents to keep you from sweating, nice flexible material down the inside of the arms so it breathes again and stretches to fit snug, not binding; chest pocket is a must, which this has, on all bike shirts and jackets, as we all now carry cellphones; great extra arm length that cuffs my gloves without having to wrestle with them to fit over or under them.It would be a five star product if; it had pockets down below as well as having the chest pocket. Can never have enough. The tail could have been a bit longer and the back of neck a bit higher, to keep out the cold. Also the armpit vents could have been a bit smaller, as you can feel initially the chill of headwinds a bit much.That said, I am 6 feet tall, 210, footballer sized, and the X-large fit great, snug but in a good way. I usually ride three to seven days a week if I can. I wore this product in the coldest weather, purposely, minus 8 celsius. Felt like I never left the indoors. I had on a no name long sleeved undershirt and a compression long sleeve underneath, wore a balaclava and gloves over my biking gloves, that's it.I'd recommend it to anyone out in the windy cold, and best with some Pearl Izumi bib tights. Fits like a good suit. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Windblocking and Breathability *by E***R on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on March 3, 2012* I've had this jacket since Nov 2011 and use it to commute to work, around 11 miles each way. I bike in the wee hours of the morning, pretty much the coldest time of the day. I've used this jacket in temps below freezing. On days in the upper 30's I've found a 200 wool base layer to work well, in colder weather I've added a 150 layer. I'm 5'11" and 155 lbs, and both layers fit fine under a Medium jacket.I was surprised at how well it blocks the wind while venting perspiration. It can get a little coolish in the stretchy areas on the backs of the arms, but the base layer seems to take care of this in cold weather. It fits well for the most part, sleeve length is great, neck closure is great. It also appears to be well made and the zippers works well.I have only three small complaints. The feed-thru for headphones is pretty small, if you have something like the Shure E2Cs with a thick adaptor for the short cord, it won't fit through. Also, the reflective areas on the sleeves seem to be in the wrong place (inside of the forearm rather than outside), maybe the thought was for oncoming traffic? A bigger complaint is that even though I don't ride on the drop bars much, the front of the jacket still tends to bunch up. Seems I have to fold the bottom front up a couple of inches. It may soften up over time though.Overall a good purchase, I do like this jacket. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprising performance *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on January 9, 2013* I purchased this thinking I'd be out on my bike in the cold winter of middle NY but snow and ice has curbed my appetite for now. My first test of this jacket was in a snow & freezing rain storm. The temp went down to 29F and I was outside for about 2 hrs. shoveling wearing a sleeveless layer and a long sleeve base layer on top and this jacket. I stayed warm and dry despite the ice rain.I also tried this jacket as an additional layer under my insulated ski jacket on a 25F snow day. Again I was outside for over 2 hrs. and this layer made my already excellent ski jacket bomb proof.This jacket is not limited to cycling or running outdoors. It's not exactly something you'd use casually but I'd cross country/downhill ski or go hiking with it....anything outdoors in the cold and yeah, I will eventuall ride with it....:)It it true to the sizing chart. I'm 6'1", 180lbs, 43" chest, 32-34" pants size. It fits me comfortably, not tight or loose. Just enough space to fit a couple of base layers if needed.I give it 4 stars for great performance but I wish it had another chest pocket. The rear pocket is larger than the chest pocket but not easy to access, especially if you're riding. I keep my cellphone and drivers license in the chest pocket but would like to keep small snacks in another accessible pocket for use while riding. A rider would have to stop to access the rear pocket. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/1195768-pearl-izumi-mens-elite-softshell-jacket](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/1195768-pearl-izumi-mens-elite-softshell-jacket) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-05-28*
