It’s the Dhb Aeron Polartec Alpha Gilet. It might be a bit of a mouthful, but this thing packs in just as many features too. It traps a lot of heat to keep you warm while maintaining excellent breathability. It features windproof and waterproof layers for added protection, as well as a slew of pockets to stay strapped with everything important.

Made of lightweight Cordura stretch-nylon fabric, the Ringtail Breezer vest is made in the United States. There are no back pockets or back vents on this ultra-simple vest. However, the vest is exceptionally well-made, with stylish details throughout, and a pocket that can stuff into the vest to make it easily transportable. In spite of being the smallest zipper of the roundup, it worked smoothly and reliably without ever catching on the fabric. Since the fabric is stretchy, I suggest going down a size if you want a race-cut look. Because of its simplicity and style, I reach for this vest the most often.

The Castelli brand is renowned for their high quality cycling products, which is in itself a huge guarantee for any of their amazing products. But apart from that, this amazing vest is made of high quality nylon, has a pull on closure and comes in a myriad of colors. I absolutely hate the vests that onlycome in fluorescent yellow! To top it off it has stretch paneling, premier ventilation and is fit very close to the body to offer as much comfort as possible. Due to the thick nylon, the fabric will cut the air so you don’t feel the cold breeze on your body as you ride your bike and maintain body heat.

Check out this Proviz vest if you’re looking for something with many reflectivities. In any lighting condition, cyclists will be a beacon. In the daylight, it seems grey, but when a headlight shines on it, it transforms into a dazzling beacon of shiny white. Cars will be able to see you from several blocks away. Because of the heavier material, this vest can get a touch warm, but it’s also windproof and water-resistant. Who doesn’t enjoy pockets? There are two of them on this vest!

The huge range of designs included in the Aogda collection is exceptional, and they are all brightly colored so as to be seen on the roads at night time. The fabric is designed with a honeycomb structure, which allows the skin to breathe and reduce the amount of sweat build-up. I also like how the sizing includes a ‘tall’ option, which is very handy for those with longer torsos (myself included!).
