The new windproof Hincapie Tour LT Vest features a special 4-way stretchwoven fabric that is lightweight, breathable and water-resistant. The flexible shell provides excellent wind and weather resistance without sacrificing any breathability. The high all-weather collar protects against the elements, while an open knit mesh panel on the back provides ventilation when the temperature rises. Reflective trim and two functional rear pockets make the Hincapie Tour LT Vest one of the most versatile stow-away garments on the planet.

US based Hincapie Sportswear Inc. has quickly put itself on the map as a leader in high-quality fashionable cycling apparel. With over 50 years in the cycling industry, the Hincapie’s draw from their own experiences as they work to produce only the best in cycling clothing. Rich and George carefully examine and test every garment to make sure it follows the company mantra of Style in Motion. From bib shorts to jerseys to accessory items, each piece is thoughtfully and purposely designed to carry both the level of performance George needs to compete in the world’s most elite cycling events and the stylish look that makes their clothing distinctive and unmatched. The perfect combination of Style and Motion.
Hincapie Sportswear is also the official apparel supplier to the BMC Racing Team. In addition to racing and training in the Hincapie Velocity custom cycling clothing, the team will also be wearing Hincapie casual clothing and accessories including Hincapie Premium Denim, Hincapie SkinDefense SPF 30+ Sunscreen and Hincapie Merino Wool products.

LIKE BIG GEORGE himself, this is a class act. It’s very smart, and totally windproof and waterproof at the front. The fit is great, plus it manages to feel light and doesn’t flap about on descents. There are two loose pockets at the back, each with reflective details, and you can stuff the gilet into either of these to make it easier to carry in a jersey pocket. But it’s worth bearing in mind that it doesn’t pack small or fasten. The collar is snug when zipped right up, but not restrictive. Undo it on climbs to benefit from the vented mesh back.
Great fit and performance - this brilliant garment has all the bases covered 9/10

Fantastic quality and and looks the business. I'm 5 foot 11 and slim build so sometimes find getting the right size an issue (always between a medium and large!). The medium was just a touch too tight and the large fits well but is a shade loose around the chest. I went for the large and it was the right choice. The fabric is just so nice to the touch and it does a great job of keeping you warm and dry. The design is great and the pockets are big enough to be useful. It doesn't flap about and looks really good on. My only slight criticism is that it could be offered in half sizes (i.e. medium large). Other than that it is a quality purchase at a good price.

Quality piece of kit. Great material, and breathable while keep that cold wind out. High nick is really nice feature also. Only comment would be it does not fold up super small.

Super looking and great material. Windproof and with nice pockets. My only complain is the plastic zipper that its cheap and looks very fragile to me on the long run.

Great Gilet
by Martin Giles from United Kingdom

I wanted a warmer Gilet than my normal club lightweight one and this is brilliant. Its a great windproof, yet it still is very breathable so you dont over heat.
The rear of the gilet has two pockets for gels & bars etc which is a great feature.
I went with the small and only thing is it is possibly a little too tight when I have a few things in my jersey pocket for the longer rides.
The Gilet looks great (I went with black) and is really worth the cost.
