The Charger is kitted out with plenty of vents to keep you cool on the ascent and toasty on the ride down. The centre zip features a pop-stud for centre-venting, for added freshness with minimal flappage. There's also dual front and back zip venting for extra airflow while you're charging or climbing. We've added backpack venting - carrying a backpack is hot work, so this way, you can lose heat direct from the source.
The Charger is crafted from RideDry20 fabric, which is 20k waterproof and 20k breathable. Highly waterproof and breathable, this premium three-layer fabric keeps its wearer dry and comfortable in the wettest and least hospitable environments, during the most vigorous exercise. The inside is finished with a soft mesh backing to create a minimalist, durable 3L fabric, that’s perfect for technical shell outerwear. Solvent free DWR coating is applied to the outside of our fabrics to aid water beading. All charger products are made using REPREVE® Recycled Polyester. REPREVE® fabrics, which are Bluesign® approved, are woven with a high percentage of fibres from post-consumer waste plastic bottles.
