Giro Chrono Expert Wind Jacket - Black - XL

Size was incredibly off. Ordered a 2xl and it fits my son who is a medium at best and 140 pounds lighter. Seems to be of good quality and lightweight.

Good fitting jacket

I ordered a large jacket, and the fit is snug like a jersey, which is what I was hoping for. I find it easier to put on and take off my hydration pack without the material getting bunched up by the straps like other windbreakers can get. I like the bright color too. I'm the type of rider who hates to wear a lot of clothing/layers in the colder months, so I thought this would be a good alternative to long sleeve jersey's with a base layer. I wore this jacket with a short sleve jersey on a cold day recently, with rain moving in, and the jacket was kept me warm enough. I actually was very warm and started sweating more than I anticipated I would. The jacket doesn't breathe as well as you would think which is the only reason that I didn't give it 5 stars.

Pleasant surprise

I was prepared to send this jacket back at first glance. It appeared too small however when I tried it on I found it fit quite well and was not binding or tight in any areas. I am a size 44 regular with fairly athletic build. Most jackets are tight on my shoulders and pull short at the wrist. This jacket did neither even with a light fleece jacket underneath and in the riding position. I was very comfortable on a ride at 45 degrees. I am happy with the purchase at this price and would recommend this jacket for a light weight wind breaker.

Super versatile jacket!

I've owned a couple of these Giro Chrono Expert Wind jackets now, and they've been great for adding a bit of extra protection from breezy, cool days. This jacket packs down small enough to fit in most jersey pockets and, even though there's no stuff sack pocket, I've found it to be pretty convenient and packable. I use this as a standalone jacket over a SS jersey for cool morning ride starts, or as the outer layer over a heavier jersey for sub-40 degree temps. It can get a little bogged down during *really* hard efforts in warmer temps, but opening the zipper a bit is usually enough to dry out. Great jacket, especially for the price, and an essential piece to own.

giro

lots of products jacket was great priced needed one ,breathable material under arms works

great for cool mornings

Great little windbreaker for cool mornings then easily pack it away for the warmer day. It is well made and great material. It will get warm if pushing hard. I would buy it again .

nice if need light shell

runs a bit small, so go bigger size. It does conform to your body well, and has plenty of venting along the sides.
