Cyclingnews.com claims that "this jacket sets a whole new bar for what a winter jacket can do" and that's exactly what the perfect winter jacket should be. We think we've made our best jacket even better in the form of the next generation, the Alpha Doppio RoS.
Even the best currently available materials with good levels of breathability can't cope with the sweat and heat generated by high intensity riding. Perto have developed a double-layer construction that allows you to have the outer, windproof layer unzipped while the inner insulating layer remains zipped up - thanks to airflow, moisture can escape and the outer layer doesn't come into direct contact with the skin. When riding uphill, you can unzip the outer layer completely to vent moisture and zip up before descending, leaving you completely dry inside. It works so well it feels like magic.
For this generation we've used a softer and warmer insulation material - Polartec® Alpha Direct We've also made a few changes to the ends of the jacket: the neck, waist and, first and foremost, the wrists. We've lengthened and shaped the neck so that it moves with you, whether you're pedaling standing up or getting your buddies in for a January workout together. At the waist, we created a stretch panel with a flat silicone hem, that fits great and insulates from the wind without rolling or sliding up. We've updated the wrist closure - it has an inner layer that fits snugly to the wrist and goes into the glove, and an outer layer that wraps around the outside of the glove so water runs onto the road and not into the glove.
This jacket will stand up to wet conditions, we used GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® with waterproof sealing at the critical seams on the shoulders. Other seams are hidden from direct contact with water, and the fabric's water-repellent finish keeps most moisture out. The jacket is, as we say, "essentially waterproof", to the maximum extent possible while maintaining a balance between water protection, breathability and comfort. We're not saying that not a drop will leak in, but we regularly take long rides in rainy weather and are completely dry. These features make it the jacket of choice for most of our ambassadors and staff, and make it the most versatile winter jacket we've ever made.
