Defend Blue Men's Thermal Cycling Jacket Defend Blue Men's Thermal Cycling Jacket

Why wear this garment

Because it translates mass and heat transfer physics into real performance. The Tek Series® membrane works like a selective filter

:

• It allows vapor molecules (smaller and more energetically active) to pass through osmotic diffusion through microchannels.
• It prevents the entry of wind and water droplets, preserving the necessary gradient to continue evacuating moisture.

In key areas (forehead, shoulders, cuffs, outer collar and sleeves), the three-layer structure prioritizes thermal barrier + vapor expulsion; on the back, cuffs and lower sleeves, the brushed Ascender type elastic fabric provides mobility, heat supply and breathing.

Integrated with the Suarez layer system, the Defend allows you to modulate protection according to the intensity of the cold: with a base layer or thermal jersey in harsh winters, or with a standard jersey when the weather is less severe. All this in an aerodynamic Race Fit profile, with strategic reflectors for greater visibility in

low light.

Technical characteristics

• Multi-panel construction: each zone uses a specific fabric to achieve a balance between protection, fit and breathability.
• Front panels, shoulders, sheath, outer collar and sleeves: three-layer fabric with plush interior, Tek Series® membrane and textured outer layer.
• Back, cuffs, pockets and bottom of sleeves: brushed Ascender type stretch fabric with bidirectional elasticity.
• Inner collar: plush for softness and comfort without chafing.
• Special anatomical cuffs: they seal the entry of cold air.
• YKK Vislon Automatic Lock double-slider zipper, with windproof protector and bottom opening for ventilation and quick access.
• Three rear cycling jersey-style pockets.
• High luminosity reflectors in strategic areas for visibility in low light.
• Elastic bottom with anti-slip gel insert for stability.
• Composition: 54% nylon | 31% polyester | 12% spandex | 3% polyurethane.
• Weight: 351 g (size M).
• Recommended thermal range: —2 °C — 8 °C (up to 10 °C without additional layers).

The thermal range may vary depending on the combination of layers and ambient wind or humidity conditions.
