Przewalski Cycling Bike Jackets for Men Winter Thermal Running Jacket Windproof Breathable Reflective Softshell Windbreaker

I bought this jacket for wearing during winter riding when temperatures are below 40°F. I wanted something fleece lined that would protect me from the wind and rain. This jacket does really well with the first one, not so well with the second. The jacket provides excellent protection for temperatures below 40. I've ridden with it all the way down to 31, recently. It hasn't been colder than that here, so I can't say how low it'd be good for. It does an amazing job at keeping the wind out and keeping me warm. It is not so great in the rain, though. Last night I rode 31 miles in the rain with a temperature of 39°F. The jacket absorbs the rain and holds on to it. Not a good jacket for the rain. However, if you put a windbreaker over top of it, something water proof that'll keep out the rain, then its perfect for rain weather too. It just doesn't do well wet. The jacket has several zipped compartments and reflectors. The zippers are fine-pitched metal and work well though I could see them binding and breaking if not careful. There are three pockets on the rear for bottles and snacks. Those pockets are not water resistant, though, so be careful with your phone. The jacket is cut longer in the back and likely best for drop-bar road and gravel cyclist. Fit wise, I am 5'11 and 160lbs and carry my weight in my stomach. I bought a size Small. I had originally bought a Medium but returned it. It was just too loose in the midsection. The Small fits me exactly how I want it to fit. Tight enough not to bunch in my mid section or flap in the wind but not so tight it won't sit over top of a long-sleeve jersey.

For a brand I knew nothing about, I’ve been remarkably happy with the Przewalski products I’ve bought. Unlike most other brands, they don’t run small. I may need a size XL in some company’s jerseys (I wear a size M in men’s shirts), this is a sized-to-fit size L. This jacket is very warm, fits well over jerseys and bibs, and the zipper pockets are indispensable when few bibs and jackets have pockets! And even after having been in a crash with me, didn’t get torn up at all. It’s also nice and thick to stand up to those 50 degree days. And the colors have stood up to several washings. I will be buying a second one!

I love this jacket. The blue and orange colors are perfect for me. I agree these are for a slim person, which I am not, so I bought a larger size and fits ok for me. I wear this jacket to go biking or hiking. It is not too thick but keeps you warm. I would totally recommend it for fall weather.

First of all I am 215-220 pounds and 6 foot one inch tall. I bought the XXL model and it fits like a glove. i like that the back is breathable and half of the arms are breathable fabric. The quality of the build is very good. I rode my first ride with the coat today for 20 miles, and the temp was around 42-44 dry non windy conditions. I was pretty comfortable. My arms were a bit cold (is wearing a long sleeve jersey underneath) but not unbearably cold. No moisture build up anywhere in the jacket. I almost bought the XL jacket but I am glad I opted for the XXL version. The front vest pocket will fit a smaller smart phone comfortably. My phone seemed to big to use that pocket so I had to utilize the back pouches. Very pleased with jacket and also the bib tight I bought from the same company are superb for price and quality.

I'm 6' 0" 200 lbs with long arms and a thickish neck. Size Large fits me well with good arm length. It has ample neck room over my high collared base layer. The jacket has a looser club fit, not a skin tight racer fit. I wear it for gravel and XC MTB, and it looks great for both disciplines. Nice longer tail provides ample splash coverage, and the two large tail pockets are great for snacks, tools and bottles. Zippered slash pockets up front are functional for keys, wallet, and keeping your hands warm when standing around. The jacket is optimized for 20F to 40F temps. At 40F, i need only a thin long sleeve base layer. First ten minutes of the ride are brisk, and then perfect once I warm up on a climb. It has room in the arms and torso to add a third layer as temps drop, but it is still reasonably snug in these areas for good aerodynamics. No bingo wings or flying squirrel body for me. The front section and arms are made of a fleece lined material that is similar to thin neoprene. It blocks wind and insulates from cold very well. These sections don't breathe, so the jacket starts feeling a bit too warm during spirited riding in temps over 50F. It might work fine up to 60F if you keep a casual pace. This is more of a dry weather winter jacket than a cool weather rain shell, so it is a bit thick and heavy compared to other cycling jackets. It is not the type of jacket you want to stuff in a jersey pocket, though you could in a pinch. This is the jacket you want to be wearing when temps stay low for the entire ride. The entire back of the jacket is a lighter more breathable fabric than the front and arms. For this reason, the jacket is not particularly water resistant. Body temp can be regulated by raising or lowering the front zipper to control ventilation. Half zipped for climbs, full zipped for descents. The gathered sleeves fit under my cold weather gloves, keeping wind off my wrists while still allowing my insulated gloves to breathe a bit. Nice feature. Overall, it is an excellent value, and a worthwile addition for anyone wanting to train through moderate winter weather.

Got this for cycling in the fall/winter and it’s great! Very warm and wind proof and the neon green is highly visible. I definitely recommend for the price.

I bought this jacket for cycling in the colder months, and I took the first ride on a 45-degree, partly sunny day with a steady breeze. Overall, I would strongly recommend this jacket. Here's why: Performance and construction - The denser fabric on the front-facing sections is quite windproof, and the material on the back, sides, and underneath the arms breathes fairly well. The knit cuffs do a good job of sealing out cold air. - I rode on a dry day and cannot speak to the jacket's water resistance. - I wore a T-shirt under a mock turtleneck, both made of synthetic, fast-wicking material. I was warm and comfortable, even riding into the wind. After warming up, I unzipped the jacket about one-third of the way when I wasn't riding into the wind. - Pockets are conveniently sized and placed. The zippered chest pocket easily holds my iPhone 12. - The materials (front and back) clean up easily in the wash on gentle with cold water. Light splatter from a messy gravel trail was gone in one wash with a light pre-treat. - Construction and stitching are excellent. Sizing - I read so many reviews, trying to decide between a large and extra large. I consistently wear a 42-inch suit jacket and dress shirts with a 16.5 inch neck with 34/35 inch sleeves. I'm 6 feet 1 inch tall and am a reasonably fit 195 pounds. - I opted for extra large, and I am very happy with my choice. The jacket has a tailored feel but room for an extra layer underneath, and sleeve length is generous. - I ride a mountain bike almost exclusively on rail trails. If I were a road biker, I may have tried a large for a more snug and aerodynamic fit.

This jacket is heavy and hot. I have only tried it on, I have not been on a ride with it yet. I was blown away with the warmth when trying it on indoors with just a t-shirt underneath. HOT! Uncomfortably hot in a 60*F room. I was astounded with the heat this jacket trapped in when standing still. I imagine it will provide enough warmth down to the freezing point and maybe even a little below with the right thermal layer on. However, this will be much to warm for riding in the 40s-50s. It is also very heavy and bulky, so it will not pack down into a jersey pocket or handlebar bag. Which means, if you start with this jacket on, you are stuck with it as temps fluctuate during the day. For the right rider on the right ride, this jacket is probably phenomenal. But it is not versatile. A one trick pony, but it is a really good trick. For fit, I got the XL and I am currently 210ish lbs at 6'1". It fit well, not too big nor too tight. I would not want it any loser fitting, though. My preference is not having extra fabric flapping and getting a form fit, but not ultra tight fit. UPDATE: I decided to keep the jacket and try it in colder temperatures. I still think 50s are too warm. In the 40s, this jacket is great if you pedal flat roads (even at high speeds). Hill climbs are too hot, even fully unzipped (with only a light short sleeve poly base layer). This makes for a challenging layering decision as the jacket is great until you start climbing, then it gets uncomfortable. I suspect this jacket will shine in the 30s or windy 40s. For fit, I probably should have gone with a L. The jacket is very long and bunches up around the waist. Front is same size as the back, so not ideal. I doubt I will ever have more than a light weight long sleeve base layer on, so no reason to go larger for layering.
