Castelli Leggera Women's Vest Castelli Leggera Women's Vest
Many women are not partial to wind vests, fearing it will inevitably come in a men's cut that will have wide shoulders, a straight line from the armpits to the waist, and a length that, when combined with an elastic hem, is all but guaranteed to look ill-fitted and flap like mad in the wind. The Castelli Leggera Women's Vest is different. Narrower shoulders, smaller arm holes, extra panels in front to better fit the vest around a woman's body, a shorter length, and a wider waist. There is gathered material on the back with some elastic and will stretch to fit. It also has a little pink highlighting in the mesh fabric inside the collar and a broad Pink mesh panel on the back.The vest weighs about 50g. The key is the windproof, water-resistant, breathable Forcefield fabric. If you stuff it in its included stuff sack, it will result in a package about four inches across. You can even stuff it smaller than that; the bag is not only for storage but to protect the vest from scratchy Velcro and rough zippers in the wash.Despite the paper feel and light weight, the vest is packed with features. The zipper works two ways, so you can zip up from the bottom to access your pockets. There's a draft flap behind the zipper. When the vest is totally zipped up, the zipper fits inside a zipper garage. The Castelli Leggera Women's Vest comes in sizes from Extra Small to Extra Large.

Gore Bike Wear Visibility AS Women's Vest Gore Bike Wear Visibility AS Women's Vest
Too often, we see people dressed like they're heading off to war, when really, they're just going for a ride in chilly conditions. Look, we're advocates of protection, but like anything, there's a right tool for every job. When it's a little colder than your liking, put on the Gore Visibility AS Women's Vest. It's anatomically designed for female cyclists, and its patented fabric technology will keep you safe and covered. To make the Visibility Active Shell vest versatile, Gore constructed it from its patented Windstopper fabric. Not surprisingly, this material does what its name says -- it stops wind. Now, we know that plenty of companies lay claims to being windproof, but no one shares the same pedigree as Gore. From the illustrious Gore-Tex to various iterations of Windstopper, Gore has proven that it's capable of dealing in absolutes. And, frankly speaking, Gore has earned our trust. Not only does the vest shut out the chilling effects of the wind, but it's also highly breathable and water-resistant. The design of the fabric allows body heat to escape, while retaining just enough to provide a consistent level of thermo-regulation. This is further aided by a large mesh panel on the back of the vest. Gore also made the vest to be extremely lightweight, making it easily packable for stowing away in a jersey pocket. However, as you might have guessed from its name, the Visibility vest is highly visible. Seems like a no-brainer, and we know that the Neon coloring makes this a ringer for safety, but what you might have missed is the vest's 360 degrees of reflective accents. Now, you can ride with a confident peace of mind when out on a low-light ride. Aside from materials and accents, it's evident that Gore was thoughtful in its construction of the vest. It received anti-abrasion details like shifted seams and anti-chafing elastic bindings on the armholes and hem. For the zipper, Gore used a semi-lock slider with a zip-underflap and zip-port.

Hincapie Sportswear Tour LTX Women's Vest Hincapie Sportswear Tour LTX Women's Vest
Depending on where you live, wet and windy doesn't always equate to a drop on the thermometer. If your environment is more on the temperate side, and you refuse to be kept indoors by foul weather, the Hincapie Sportswear Tour LTX Women's Vest is for you. Combining an anatomic design with warming, weather-resistant materials, the Tour LTX Vest provides just the right amount of protection to keep you rolling through the storm. To make the Tour LTX a versatile vest across various weather conditions, Hincapie had to strike a balance in the materials used for construction. So, drawing on experience, it used a sophisticated blend of Advanced LTX Wind Repel, RegulatorTek with ThermoCool, and TempoMesh. We understand that this sounds like a collection of gibberish, more in tune with an owner's manual than a vest, and granted, what's really important is what they do. For example, Advanced LTX bears the namesake of the vest for a reason. Using a four-way stretch polyester, Hincapie incorporated the fabric because of its ability to conform to the shape and movement of the body. It also doesn't hurt that help that the fabric is wind-resistant and has been given hydrophyllic and hydrophobic treatments, either. What does this mean' Well, the hydrophyllic treatment has been applied to the inner-lining of the vest to wick moisture away from the body, while the hydrophobic treatment repels water from the outside of vest. On the issue of comfort, Hincapie has used a micro-sanded interior finish to ensure a soft-to-the-touch contact with the skin. Furthermore, the vest's ThermoCool yarn keeps a consistent internal temperature. The yarn adapts to your core temperature by both buffering and evaporating moisture. For ventilation, the TempoMesh inserts throughout the vest let hot air escape without letting in cold air. Additionally, this fabric has been strategically placed to provide stretch in heavy articulation areas.

Louis Garneau Nova Women's Vest Louis Garneau Nova Women's Vest
We're fairly certain that the peace of mind you'll get from having the Louis Garneau Nova Women's Vest along with you on your training rides is worth its reasonable price. Think of a time when it was so nice outside you didn't feel the need to check the weather report before you left -- and then the sky opened up an hour or so into your out-and-back spin. Or, recall a ride where you were feeling so good that you couldn't resist staying out past sundown, and then had to face a chilly, windy ride home that made you wish you hadn't been so ambitious. At times like these, a good vest is invaluable. The front of the Nova Vest is made of Diamond Air fabric, a polyester weave that's windproof, resistant to tearing, and treated with a water-repellent finish. It's also breathable, but you'll get most of your ventilation through the Light Mesh AirDry and Micromesh fabrics that make up the back of the vest. The Nova Vest has two back pockets so you don't have to dig for your stowed gear, and a zipper garage keeps the zipper tucked away nicely. Reflective piping on the back as well as reflective front and back logos ensure that you'll be seen as you push on through those came-from-nowhere storms. The Louis Garneau Nova Women's Vest comes in sizes X-Small through XX-Large and in two color options: Black/white and Bright yellow.
