Great quality lightweight top, but it’s expensive and doesn’t have an elasticated hem

Not quite as packable or light as some jackets, this 206g (L) cycling-specific top is still easily compact enough for your pannier, bar bag or rear jersey pocket.

There are long reflective strips down the arms and around the Napoleon pocket, and you get a large, easy-to-grip zip puller on the water-resistant zip.

The hem is only elasticated on the sides, and we’d have preferred more elastication or cinching here. But as well as being waterproof, this is light enough to double up as a windproof option when the mercury dips.
