Canari Convertible Cycling Jacket - Windproof Razor Eclipse (For Men)
Closeouts. Canari's Razor Eclipse cycling jacket was made to slice through fierce headwinds. Polyester ripstop nylon is lightweight and packable as well as windproof and water-resistant for riding, in peak or off season. If the temperature rises, simply zip off the sleeves to convert the jacket into a vest.

Reviewed by Bobby G from New Jersey on Friday, May 17, 2013I'm 6'3" with a slender build (long arms!) and the XL fits perfectly! The orange is super-bright, and the reflective piping really lets you be seen at night when the headlights hit you. The clever venting prevents the windbreaker from "ballooning" when you pick up speed. It's comfortable, well-tailored, and I couldn't be happier with it, especially on the crowded central NJ roads. The pockets are plentiful and roomy, and the attention to detail is outstanding.

Reviewed by joe schmoe from Seattle on Friday, March 29, 2013For what you'll pay at STP, it's fine. No way would I pay retail for it though. It's good if you want it to be expendable (i.e. - commuting or mountain riding because of the muck and dirt, etc.). Probably not the best choice if you're a roadie or club rider type though. Think of it as buying a cheap tent vs. spending more for that really nice tent where every detail is well thought out. PROS: Visibility, converts to a vest, blocks the wind, pockets, the collar is nice. CONS: Fit (too baggy in the torso, too short in the sleeves), zippers are heavy & clunky, material is heavier/thicker than you might expect which blocks wind nicely but can also trap humidity inside the jacket.

Reviewed by dtomlinson from South Dakota on Friday, March 22, 2013This is my second Canari Eclipse jacket. I was involved in a head on collision with a car while riding my bike and wearing this jacket. I survived the crash with only cuts and bruises, plus road rash and a bum shoulder. I helmet cracked and my Canari jacket had a few tears in the back, but saved my back from further damage. That's not reason for replacing it. I love the jacket for its versatility of being either a jacket or vest. I am trying the orange model, maybe better visability than the yellow.

Reviewed by Denverite from Denver on Monday, March 18, 2013My husband wanted something to block the wind and be bright as he commutes to work. He was very impressed at the wind block on this...and it sure is bright!

Reviewed by Seattle Bike Commuter from Seattle WA on Thursday, March 14, 2013I'm 6'3 185 so this jacket (in an XL) was pretty baggy and the arms were short....but for the price I can almost overlook that.

Reviewed by Adventure cyclist from AL on Wednesday, March 06, 2013The orange is VERY visible. I love the cinch cord at the bottom hem, rather than elastic. It allows the jacket to lay flat rather than ride up. The zippers are easy to use.

Reviewed by Gorge dude from Ohio on Wednesday, February 27, 2013This jacket would be ok if not for the zippers.|I would not take a chance with this jacket for that reason.

Reviewed by Jeepjeep from Indianapolis IN on Saturday, February 09, 2013Was told by my trainer to look for a bright vest, windproof, for layering. This jacket has removable sleeves, a bonus. Love the color and the pockets.
