Care

When washing, use a gentle cycle, with COOL water. If your washing machine does not have a COOL setting, use the COLD setting. Close all zippers and make sure pockets are empty.

We recommend using a free and clear detergent or a detergent specifically designed for technical garments. Traditional detergents, particularly powdered detergents can leave residues that can negatively affect the performance of your garment. Avoid all products with fabric softeners or bleach. Grangers Performance Wash is a great option.

Avoid excessive heat. Seam tape can fall apart in a dryer, and it is not a pretty sight. Excessive heat (even a car dashboard in the summer) can also cause multi-layered waterproof fabrics to delaminate.

Great fabric, nice bright colors and nicely waterproof. I miss the double zipper (zips open from the bottom also) from my last Showers Pass jacket.

Terrible jacket. I wouldn’t buy another. No bottom up zipper, stiff, no armpit vents, and they fail at 2 years. Not worth the expense.

Love this jacket. Love the colors, especially, but the fit is great. I'm 5'4" so it's not too long. I love that it velcros on the wrists and the zippered pockets. Great design for velcro-ing the hood into the collar. I just can't get the hood comfortably over my helmet. But the jacket alone is definitely a keeper.

So waterproof and breathable. Serious jacket for serious Oregon downpours

I wish yellow had been available. This will work fine to protect from eain when i commute on my bike. But i miss the pockets that the original had.

Lightweight, yet does the job well. It is a shell, so don't plan on this being your one and only layer when it's cold outside. However, as a rain cover and a windbreaker, this is the perfect jacket. I had a warm layer underneath while I was riding in 48 degree farenheit weather and I felt warm. As for fit, it fits perfectly to the dimenstions as described on the website. Also, I love the color!

My first use was biking 24 miles in the rain. I got some spray from passing vehicles too. Stayed dry and warm. Jacket didn’t feel clammy. Great so far.

The Elite 3 is brilliantly designed, and is as pretty as a cycling jacket can be. According to the size chart I'm XS and bought a size S. The fit is just right with a base layer and warm cycling jersey. Shoulders are big too, which hard to find in women's gear. The high collar is uncomfortably stiff but otherwise it's a great jacket
