PATAGONIA TORRENTSHELL PULLOVER R2 399

When you know that steady rain is imminent, ‘waterresistant’ just won’t do. To keep from getting soaked to your skin, rather opt for something that’s properly waterproof.

This quarter-zip pullover has you covered – from waterproof H2NO Performance Standard fabric to taped seams, and a roll-down hood that fits easily over a helmet. The casual fit is ideal for layering, and the breathable, durable fabric should withstand the most thorny trail ride.

It doesn’t have rear pockets, but there’s a useful zippered chest pouch that also doubles as a storage sack. (And another cool thing: the nylon used to create the jacket is 100% recycled.)
