A strong piece for those out there who aren’t afraid of a little sweat (or style). Breathable and comfortable, you’ll feel positively summery in a snow storm!

Anona says: Surprise! It gets COLD in Portland! I decided I needed to re-vamp my winter wardrobe when it dropped below 20. I fell in love with the Fusion Thermal Jacket because the lipstick color is gorgeous, the lines are simple, it is well made, and it is WARM. As a Midwesterner, I know all too well how important it is to wear something that stops the wind, and Windstopper fabric really works. Here in Oregon there are hills, so I discovered that pit zips, smooth zippers and a bite grip (really!) also make a huge difference in my comfort because I can easily regulate my temperature as I climb and descend. With the buttery soft outer shell and fleece lining, this jacket is almost as comfy as a sweatshirt, even though it's technical enough to see me through the most epic of rides. It looks classy for a sporty cycling jacket too, because it fits well and isn't spattered with loud logos. The Fusion Thermal Jacket makes me feel a little better about being so naïve to think that I was escaping cold winters by moving to the Northwest!
