With a further refined fit for 2020, the new Softshell jacket draws on over six years of development and testing to create a winter jacket versatile enough to meet the needs of the most demanding cyclist, covering a broad range of temps and conditions. We started with an entirely new pattern, working to balance a trim, flap-free fit, with room to layer and full mobility and comfort.
We drew inspiration from touring motorcycle jackets and their shaped sleeves, articulated shoulders/chest and curved back. The result is a silhouette that effortlessly fits in the riding position.
We partnered with eVent, a leader in high performance membranes, to develop our proprietary three-layer softshell, incorporating their Direct Vent stretch membrane with Primaloft performance yarn backer and durable stretch woven and DWR treated face. The result is a truly breathable softshell that has the ability to manage moisture and keep the internal climate warm, but dry -- a critical equation for long winter miles. Designed for temperatures from freezing to 50F and capable of warding off all but the most torrential downpours, thanks to it’s 10K waterproof membrane, it’s a one-jacket solution to winter riding. And, by combining the Softshell with our Alpha Long sleeve, the two-piece system easily covers the bravest of souls comfortably down to the single digits (without the risk of breaking a sweat).
Caring for your cycling gear properly will extend its life and maintain its performance, fit and quality. It’s important to consider these instructions carefully. While we stand behind the quality of our apparel, not adhering to these instructions will void our warranty against manufacturing & defects.
We strongly recommend washing your new gear before wearing it. You’ll find that your apparel will soften, and fit & comfort will improve after washing - especially with bibs & shorts.
Machine wash cool, 86°F (30°C) with like colors: Cooler temps maintain better longevity for your apparel. Like colors, especially lights, will remain more vibrant when washed with like colors.
Use mild detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean: Strong detergents & bleach can break down the fibers and elastane in the garment, dramatically reducing its life.
Close all fastenings: this goes also for other garments mixed in with your cycling apparel. Velcro closures or clasps can catch on stitching or trim and damage your garments.
Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry: Do not put your cycling apparel in the dryer. Even on low heat. Don’t do it. Heat can damage fabric, elastic and heat transfer logos very easily. Lycra (Elastane) is used throughout our garments to provide compression and support and is susceptible to damage from heat and can irreparably damage your apparel.
How do your jackets fit?
Our jackets are patterned in the riding position, with a tight fit across
the chest and arms with a more forward position. This is intentional to
reduce flapping and extra fabric across the chest while riding. When
standing, the jacket will feel tight across the chest, shoulders and
torso. The arm length might appear long as well. However, the intended fit
is tailored for on-the-bike positioning where the shoulders and torso no
longer feel tight and the extra arm length hits the wrists in the
appropriate spot. Constructed without extra fabric to flap around - it
should fit tight over your jersey (with enough room for a long sleeve and
base layer), but shouldn’t appear baggy. We select fabrics that have some
elasticity to allow for freedom of movement even with a tailored fit to
accommodate some range of fit within each size.
Our jerseys and bib shorts are intended to be form fit, providing compressive support, maximizing performance of the fabrics, and reducing fatigue and chafing. Due to the compressive nature of the fabrics, you will be able to fit into more than one size. Please use the charts below to help determine your optimum size:

Love the look and feel of the jacket - until I put it on. I am 6'1 and ~198lbs so I expected the large to fit well. Its just about the proper length in arms, back, maybe a bit short in the torso. Where it was waaay too tight was across the chest, shoulders and upper arms (this is only sorta humble-braggy - I've been doing a lot more upper body exercises the past few months - this could be the issue). Super bummed because I waited months for the Large to come back into stock and now the XLs are out as well. I can tell its an awesome product, but if one doesnt have that slight cyclist build, they may need to go up a size. Only leaving a review because I wouldnt want others to be disappointed!
Hey, Apologies on the fit! Where do your measurements around the chest land when compared to our chart on the product page (right below the height/weight)? Please feel free to reach out to us at support@velocio.cc - Velocio Customer Support
This is unquestionably the best piece of cycling apparel that I own. At first, I wasn't sure that it provide warmth for temperatures in the 30s. I layered it with a mesh tank baselayer and a mid-weight wool shirt and it was perfect warmth and comfort. As it starts to warm up, a lighter baselayer will make an ideal three season jacket. Because the Yukon color wasn't available in my size, I purchased the Night color. It doesn't provide the visibility that I assume the Yukon color would provide, but the color is nice...closer to purple than blue. I am 5' 11" and 153 lbs, which puts me between a small and medium. I went with the medium to account for layering, and it fits great.
very well made. quality is definitely on par with Rapha & Le Col. My only complaint and the reason I returned it is because it’s just tight. I understand what you guys say about they are meant to be for riding positions. They are for sure designed for riders who are in great shape.
Awesome jacket, fit is fantastic and sets in riding position. Breaths well and good warmth, have been using it while fat biking with just a mid-weight baselayer down in the 20’s. Three things would make it absolutely perfect, 1. Take an inch off the tail, 2. Tighten up the rear pockets, 3. Add a zipper with small pocket in one rear pocket for keys. May all just be personal preference. But this jacket!
The signature softshell jacket is incredible! Really nice detailing, excellent design and materials, and comfortable over a wide range of temps (so far 26 degrees F to 50 degrees F) and with a wide range of layers. Well done Velocio
