ZOA Outerwear System: ultimate weather protection
22-02-19Zoa is a new standard in outdoor clothing for cyclists, utilising the world’s best performance fabrics in a range of premium products, suitable for multiple riding disciplines, and for both on and off bike use.
The products in our Zoa range have been created as a system, designed to work either as standalone layers, or together in harmony to deliver high performance protection in a range of weather conditions.
The system comprises the Zoa Insulated Jacket, The Zoa Rain Shell, and the Zoa Burner.
Worn as outer layer – cold, dry and/or windy conditions
Worn as mid-layer – very cold, wet, windy conditions
How it works:
The PrimaLoft® Gold insulation works in conjunction with the Pertex® Quantum outer fabric and lining to trap your body heat and prevent it from escaping, using it to keep you warm.
By combining a breathable insulation with a highly windproof outer fabric we’ve created a versatile jacket that retains warmth and provides a high degree of windblock without excessive heat build up.
Worn as outer layer (standalone) – wet, windy conditions
Worn as outer layer (with Zoa Insulated Jacket as mid-layer) – very cold, wet, windy, snowy conditions
How it works:
The revolutionary Pertex® Shield Air fabric uses an air permeable nanofibre membrane to provide extremely breathable waterproof protection. The air permeability of the fabric means that it is highly breathable from the moment the garment is put on, allowing moist air to move directly through the fabric with minimal resistance. This is a key difference vs bi-component (such as Gore-Tex Pro) or hydrophilic membranes found in other waterproof jackets, which require users to build high levels of relative humidity inside the garment to drive the moisture transfer.
Combining this durably waterproof membrane with a lightweight, soft and quiet face fabric, the Zoa Rain Shell provides unparalleled levels of comfort in even the most extreme conditions.
Zoa Burner
How it works:
The Zoa Burner is a highly packable insulated scarf that uses the same Pertex Quantum fabric and Primaloft Gold Eco insulation as the Zoa Insulated Jacket, and can be used as a scarf to trap more warm air inside the jacket, increasing warmth.
