PEARL IZUMI Summit Thermal jacket

Cooler months can put a lot of demand on your gear closet, so the Women´s Summit Thermal Jersey is designed with versatility in mind. Wear it as a warm-yet-breathable outer layer during fall and spring rides and use it as your insulating mid-layer when the mercury plummets during the winter. The technical fleece is constructed with a grid fabric that allows it to quickly transfer moisture while retaining heat to keep you focused on the ride, not the temperature. The Summit Thermal Jersey features two zippered hand pockets and a hood that´s slim enough to fit under a helmet for really chilly rides. Features: - Versatile top performs as a midlayer and outer layer - 60g high-stretch technical grid Transfer Fleece - Hood designed to fit under the helmet - Fabrics made from recycled materials - Two-way main zipper provides access to rear cargo pockets - Longer rear hem for additional coverage - Standard fit Specifiations: - 47% recycled polyester, 42% polyester, 11% elastane Care: - Use simple detergents with no additives never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. the general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. many detergents with additives leave ´´surfactants´´ behind on a fabric´s fibers that inhibit the technical performance. typically the best detergents to use will have ´´clear´´ or ´´free´´ in their names. don´t pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. if something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. this will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. read the content care label: on the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. on garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. follow those directions. on finer fabrics, use a ´´gentle´´ cycle. close all zippers, attach ´´hook and loop´´ closures on gloves you can use the dryer, carefully: if you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (do not use a commercial dryer or a ´´hot´´ setting). this will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. if in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.
