<br />Improve your Classics’ performance this spring with the latest clothing technology

Don't let pouring rain be the excuse not to train. Sportful's Fiandre Pro jacket (short-sleeved) has been engineered to cope with bad weather such as that encountered on the Classics. Using Polartec® NeoShell® - the world's most breathable waterproof fabric technology - it provides stretchy comfort in a waterproof, breathable shell. If you’re a serious cyclist then Sportful's Fiandre Pro jacket will give you the protection you need so you can shape up for the challenging, competitive season ahead.

Italian brand, Sportful was founded in 1973 and is well known for well-thought out, technical clothing for serious road cyclists. It's important then that the brand’s designers source the right fabrics so that Sportful's customers can concentrate on their sport. The Fiandre Pro is one such piece. Using Polartec NeoShell it offers the perfect balance between waterproof protection and breathability. Anything can be waterproof but it's breathability that's key: what's the use of a jacket that keeps the rain out but holds sweat in? Polartec NeoShell strikes that balance as well as being lightweight, aerodynamic and incredibly stretchy. 

The Fiandre Pro's design and development is the result of years of pro-athlete testing out in the field by the BORA-hansgrohe team. Think races like the Classics, cycling's biggest one day races which largely take place in Northern Europe during spring. Consequently this jacket is used to inclement weather.  It's made entirely from Polartec® NeoShell® and will provide the rider with comfort, weather protection and temperature regulation. It features minimal, taped seams (there are none on the shoulders) and a front and back panel that offers a snug fit for maximum aerodynamism. Its long tail protects from spray from the rear wheel and the YKK Vislon waterproof zip seals the deal. Handily, its three back pockets use a micro-perforated fabric to drain water.

If your clothing is preventing you from training, you need look no further.
