What Should You Wear When It Rains? | Softshell Vs Hardshell Cycling Jackets

Clock00:00, Saturday 7th December 2019

So you’re going to ride your road bike in the rain, do you go softshell or hardshell jacket? You might keep the rain out with the hardshell, but will the softshell stop your sweat staying in? At GCN we’ve done our best to create monsoon conditions of the most epic proportions in order to answer this question.
