Canari Tour Cycling Jacket - Convertible (For Women)

I love the versatility of this jacket and all the pockets! It will easily adapt to spring, summer, and fall considering the sleeves zip off.

You can certainly see me coming in this grape jacket.

I use this jacket when I run so I am visible to oncoming traffic. It works well to block wind, snow and light rain. Ran in 8 degree wind-chill last week and this jacket was perfect with two light layers underneath.

I wear the jacket commuting on my bike. When I leave in the morning it is pretty cool, low 40s. The jacket does a great job of keeping me warm. In the afternoon when it is 60+ I love being able to zip off the sleeves. The biggest drawback is the sizing. I purchased an XL, the largest size available, and it fits like a large or even a medium. While you can unzip from the bottom to provide some room, the tightness makes the pouch in back hang lower than the jacket itself.

Jacket is so flexible in that you can zip off the sleeves and use it as a vest. Can fold into itself if it gets too warm and you can wear it like a fanny pack. This is a flexible jacket with very nice styling and color.

I'm 5'4"/129 lbs and the Med. fits very well. I got the purple and it is bright enough (but not obnoxious) to help with being seen by motorists. Jacket has a double zipper (zips from the top and the bottom) and a light fleece at the collar which is nice. I love that it's convertable. The sleeves zip on/off easily. The 2 side front pockets and 1 large pocket across the back are great for carrying extra items on a ride. I've worn the jacket with the sleeves once and my arms got pretty sweaty but have not had that problem at all when just wearing the vest even when going from chilly (low 40's) to warmer temps (mid 60's) on a 100 mile ride. One small complaint is that when there are items in the rear pocket it pulls the pocket below the back hem of the jacket and it shows which is more of a fashion concern than anything.

Got this for my wife after my same jacket in Yellow arrived. Mine is for biking, hers is for running, and hers is in pink. Glad we got this instead of the basic shell. More breathable and functional with the zip off sleeves and pockets. Also has a nice soft material around the neck. My wife is about 5'2", normally a women's size 8, 6 in some. I ordered a medium because that is what was available. It fits well. Has a little extra room in it, which she likes. She's training for a marathon so the color will make her more visible and the zip off sleeves will let her use it more.

I love this jacket- super for that day when it is cool so you can do a hill climb with just the vest- then put the sleeves on for the ride back down- the pockets are great- the strap is useful as the temps and winds change throughout a long ride- I was waiting for this one- and the price is great- I have an athletic shape and it fit great- if you are a little extra in the mid section it could be snug.

The orange color is indeed exceptionally visible. Could have more reflective stuff on back and garages for front zipper, but the price was super duper. I wear a 8 usually, and the large works well for me.

Great service
