How to Pack Your Cycling Jacket into a Stow Pocket
It’s a beautiful sunny morning as you set out on your ride through the countryside. But after a couple of hours of ideal weather, the clouds start to roll in, the air turns cold, and you even start to feel a bit of precipitation brewing up ahead. While a less experienced rider may take that as a sign to end their ride for the day, you’ve come prepared with a lightweight jacket securely stowed in your back jersey pocket. Your GOREWEAR jacket to the rescue!
If you’ve done any amount of shopping for cycling apparel or cycling jackets, you’ve probably come across “packable” or “includes stow pocket” as one of the product features.
