Review on Pearl Izumi Barrier Convertible XX Large Men's Clothing and Active by John Lewis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good fit, graphic wears out after 1 ride

Jacket fits true to size, I'm 6ft 1in and 190lbs and Large fits me. The sleeves are quite long which is good on the bike, most jackets have sleeves that roll up when I put hoods on. The sleeves are awkward to put on but easy to take off. The panels on the thighs start to crack and peel off after 1 ride. The panels are quite stiff and crack from the start and are non-reflective, but there's no reason they're already starting to fall off. Still, I'm keeping the jacket on, just because I need it and I don't have time to deal with returns and replacements and it doesn't particularly affect the performance of the jacket. Still bad quality and I'm disappointed.

Pros
  • Full length internal storm flap with zips for warmth
Cons
  • Makes me angry
