welp, i just got my swrve windbreaker in the mail yesterday....
and i also ordered a chrome champ jacket for half off on gilt group....wouldn't have bought it otherwise....


anywho, my 1 day of wearing the swrv windbreaker review:

i think it looks awesome. ill get that out of the way. cool assymetrical zipper, has double zipper so you can zip the bottom out and keep the top zipped.

rode in it once, and definitely blocks the wind. havn't tried out its rain repellent yet.

the cut is nice, the back definitely tappers downward to protect the lower back/ butt crack lol

two pockets on each side...zippered....seem to be more on the side than the front, im guessing its better for riding with crap in the pockets.

a bit of ventilation area in the pits.

now, the material is incredibly super thin. like, im a bit scared to get it caught on anything. seems easy to rip, although i could be wrong. luckily the fit is a bit on the slim side.

elastic cuffs, long sleeves, even with my condor like wingspan.

i like it, feels nice when riding, BUT i dont really feel like i got what i payed for. it was 100 bucks which seemed middle of the road for cycling jackets. if it was 60 bucks i would give it a 5 out of 5.



i will come back if this thread is around and write a followup down the line.


once the champ comes in, i will review it too.
