With the unique design value and social value, Wind Breaker winter cycling jacket redefines the new standards in the field of winter cycling equipment.
This product achieves dual innovation in function and aesthetics. It adopts a knitted woven spliced dual-material structure. The knitted part uses the fluorine-free waterproof seamless one-piece woven fabric maintaining high breathability. Australian Merino wool fabric with its natural scale structure forms an air insulation layer, improving moisture absorption and quick-drying performance by 30% to ensure a dry and warm skin-friendly feel. It embeds 3M Thinsulateā„¢ high-efficiency thermal cotton in woven core thermal area, which forms a three-dimensional heat-locking structure with 0.2mm ultra-fine fibers. It provides 15% higher thermal performance than traditional down at the same thickness while reducing weight by 20%, balancing lightweight and strong warmth retention. Its function design is driven by scenarios. Dynamic breathable management system achieves air convection solving the winter cycling problem of "overheating when layered, cold when underdressed ". The close-fitting three-dimensional tailoring integrates 3D ergonomics, with reinforced fabric on the shoulders and elbows to absorb impact force. The cuff thumb loops and hem non-slip drawstrings form a "dynamic fixation system". The high-brightness orange splicing design enhances nighttime visibility. Pragmatic designs such as the knitted back pocket, extended hem and dual collar protection reflect deep understanding of cycling scenarios in every detail. The orange-gray color scheme combines visual impact with safety features.
At the level of social value, Wind Breaker prompts green cycling lifestyle. The fluorine-free waterproof process avoids PFAS pollution, reducing carbon emissions by 40% during production. The 3M thermal cotton is environmental certified, providing a green manufacturing model for the industry. Through extreme warmth and breathability, winter cycling scenarios are expanded from professional competitions to urban commuting and leisure cycling, supporting the national strategy of "low-carbon travel" and "national fitness".
