Product news: The POC AVIP Rain Jacket offers a water column of 10.000 millimeters and good visibility best protection on rainy and dark days. The cut of the DWR-treated 3-layer jacket wwith fully taped seams and waterproof zippers was specially adapted to the needs of racing cyclists.
POC AVIP Rain Jacket – The AVIP concept
The well-known AVIP concept from POC stands for Attention Visibility Interaction Protection and is intended to improve the safety of cyclists. Above all, the neon orange of the jacket should make you particularly visible. The principle works both in daylight and in the dark. A large logo on the back also reflects and should offer additional protection.
POC AVIP Rain Jacket – material and cut
The cut of the jacket is very sporty and designed especially for racing cyclists. The front is relatively short so that the jacket does not wrinkle when the bike is bent, while the back is pulled low. In addition, the POC AVIP Rain Jacket has anatomically preformed sleeves and are slightly longer on the outside. In general, the jacket has a rather tight cut, but due to the slight stretch in the material, this leads to a good fit.
There's a generous pocket on the back that even includes a key loop. There are laser-cut ventilation holes under the arms so that the temperature can be optimally regulated. The POC AVIP Rain Jacket consists entirely of 3-layer material, which is intended to guarantee the best water resistance with a water column of 10.000mm. However, this results in a relatively high weight and a large pack size of the jacket. So the POC AVIP Rain Jacket probably won't fit in the jersey pocket.
