Designer’s notes

“With Pulsar we searched high and low for a premium fabric that would keep you comfortable when working hard. We found it in Japan; a high stretch, 2.5-layer material that ticked all the boxes. Lightweight, made for movement, soft touch, waterproof, breathable and rustle-free when moving quickly. What more do you want?

We dropped the hem to give coverage on the bike and theres a fully adjustable, wire peaked hood to keep rain out of your eyes. If you overheat, the elasticated velcro cuffs can be pushed up to your elbow and the kangaroo pocket contains a big mesh vent. Stick Pulsar on when youre out for a walk or ride in changeable weather, leave it on to keep the wind off or pack it away when the weather clears between downpours.”
