SPORTFUL LIGHT AIR Sleeveless Jacket Black

The Sportful Light Air Vest is an ultra-lightweight sleeveless vest designed for road, gravel, and mountain bike riders looking for compact and effective extra protection. This vest is the ideal tool for dealing with unpredictable weather, whether you’re tackling a long descent from a mountain pass after an intense effort, protecting yourself from the cool morning breeze, or coping with a sudden drop in temperature at the end of the day.

The strength of this model lies in its perfect balance between extreme compactness and targeted protection. The front panel features a technical wind-blocking fabric that instantly shields the torso from the wind, while the overall fit remains very snug to minimize aerodynamic drag. It’s the essential thermal layer to carry in all your jersey pockets, from spring through fall.

Does this vest have back pockets? To maintain maximum lightness and extreme compactness (so it folds up to fit in the palm of your hand), this vest does not have dedicated pockets. However, its stretchy back fabric allows easy access—either from below or through the fabric—to the pockets of your traditional cycling jersey worn underneath.

Does it protect against rain? The Light Air Vest is primarily a windbreaker. The front fabric has a light water-repellent treatment capable of blocking damp fog or a very fine, passing drizzle, but it is not designed to withstand heavy or continuous rain. For those conditions, a jacket with a waterproof membrane (such as the Fiandre line) would be more suitable.

How do I choose the right size for this vest? This vest has a performance-style, slim fit. It’s designed to be worn directly over a fitted summer or mid-season jersey. If you plan to wear it over a thick winter jersey or if you prefer a more relaxed fit with a little extra room around the torso, we recommend choosing one size larger than your usual size.
