Pearl Izumi Insula Tour Cycling Jacket (For Women)

Front is weather proof, back is not- not a good feature on a windy day. Really keeping me toasty so far but the coldest weather is yet to come. Looking forward to wearing this when temps are in 20's - 30's as it is too warm ( for me) in the 40-50 degree range.

I wore this on my first colder ride of the season last week with a winter jersey underneath. Rode for an hour and a half in 35 degree weather and was very comfortable. I got the gold ("moab") color which is bright and pretty. I get a lot of compliments on it and picked it up for such a great price. Now if I could just keep those fingers warmer...

The medium was a perfect fit, except for some tightness across the shoulders, the large is comfortable but a little too roomy in most areas. I am 5'4", 115 lbs, a LARGE???? The only pocket is the traditional cycling rear pocket. Cute jacket, love the colors, good for moderate cold, would need something more for really cold or windy conditions

This jacket is very nice for cycling in cool/cold weather. It is nicely form fitting so does not bunch up at the shoulder and interfere with the glasses mirror. The sleeves are too long and I have to roll them up. The back pocket with side entrance is very big and holds a lot of stuff. The only thing that surprised me was that the back of the jacket was light orange, I was expecting it to be fuscia on the back and orange on the front. I like this jacket!

I was pleasantly surprised how attractive this jacket is. The color provides high visibility for cold, cloudy days. The fit is very comfortable with plenty of stretch.
