As the Defence jacket battles the wind, the Polartec-powered Riparo Jacket provides warmth and water resistance. Inspired by the Italian word for "shelter," this jacket shields cyclists from the elements during harsh rides. Insulating and breathable, the Riparo is the ultimate choice for intervals, climbs, descents, low temperatures, and changing conditions. The weather-resistant jacket is crafted with Polartec® Alpha®, an active insulation and temperature-regulating technology with ultra-high breathability, releasing excess body heat and moisture while drying rapidly before the rider gets a sense of clamminess. The design is rounded out with a windproof exterior and treated with a durable water-repellency (DWR) finish for exceptional protection from the elements. As its name suggests, the Riparo is a haven for the body in the most frigid conditions.

Together, Ale' Cycling and Polartec are taking performance riding outerwear to new heights with these cutting-edge jackets. Polartec's patented fabrics enable optimal comfort, warmth, and protection no matter the weather forecast, empowering riders to conquer wind, rain, and cold on any road. Don’t let chilly weather confine cycling to indoors, make the most of these crisp days in style and comfort with the Defence and Riparo jackets.
