Strengths: made from micro- fleece 100 so nice and thin for biking yet is toasty warm.lined with Windfoil so can be used on it's own. good length at rear stops your back getting cold
Weaknesses: zip tabs could be a little longer, fiddly to use with gloved hands
Overall: usable toasty fleece thats as cheap as chips
Strengths: Warm enough for winter. Windproof liner at front. Looks good. Long front zip. Subtle reflective features.
Weaknesses: Zips are a bit cheap.
Overall: In my opinion: a veritable bargain. I wear this fleece over a T-shirt when cycling to work on winter mornings and its toasty. The windproof liner really works. When the weather is warmer the long zip means you can air-con easily. The style means it can be worn on trips to civilisation and you won't look like an 'outdoor geek'. Reflective bits are subtle and work well. As with all other Ground Effect products the quality is excellent, prices even better and the 'internet order only' really works with 7 day delivery a reality.
