Designed with the winter adventure biker in mind, the VR Cinder Jacket is at home on high-intensity rides in cold conditions. This lightweight, supple, wind-resistant jacket is armed with an unbeatable combination of our time-tested Vapour-Rise™ technology and a tailored bike fit. The result is a warm yet breathable bike-specific layer which balances your microclimate on bitter winter days.
The feathery soft VR Warm lining insulates you against cold headwinds, while breathable mesh wicks moisture away from high-sweat areas, keeping you comfortable over long distances. When the intensity ramps up, you can expel heat using the concealed side vents which allow airflow without billowing. They’re also downward-closing so that it’s easy to seal out the wind, even with freezing fingers. The jacket’s fit has been engineered for the saddle, with a dropped rear hem covering your hips while you’re pedalling. Stretch inserts at the cuff provide added comfort and are compatible with a sports watch so you can check your progress on the go. A moisture-resistant zipped back pocket is the perfect place to stash snacks or a map.
Finished with a fluorocarbon-free DWR, the VR Cinder Jacket is the bike-ready evolution of our iconic Vapour-Rise™ range, built to keep you riding through winter.
How to measure.
Chest: Measure the full circumference of your chest just below your armpits.
Waist: Find the top of your hip and measure the full circumference around your body.
Arm length: Measure horizontally from the centre of your back, across the shoulder, over a naturally bent elbow and down to the wrist fold.
Hips: Measure around the widest part of your hip area.
While all our garments are sized to these measurements, you will find that the cut on jackets designed for use in more extreme environments will be slightly more generous in the expectation that these designs will be used with additional/thicker midlayers. If you plan on using a jacket like this with fewer layers beneath it, please keep this in mind when selecting your size.
All garments are designed and fitted to suit their intended end use. See below for a general description of our fit categories:
Regular: Neither slim nor loose. Regular fit items are the perfect balance of form fit and ease of movement.
Slim: A streamlined silhouette. Cut trim following the contours of the body. Expertly placed articulation of seams and the use of stretch fabric ensure maximum freedom of movement in these close-fitting items.
Relaxed: Our more generous fit. Cut loosely through the body allowing for ease of movement and additional layering.
Expedition: Designed specifically to accommodate the layering system and equipment required for high altitude and polar expeditions.
