dhb Aeron Lab Superlight Waterproof Gilet

Race-ready performance

You're in the middle of a tough training session or pushing the pace at the head of the peloton when the rain begins to pour - now is not the time to pull on a heavy and flapping gilet, now is exactly the time to reach for the Aeron Lab Superlight Waterproof Gilet. Incredibly light, at a mere 85 grams, and with an incredibly small pack size, almost half that of a jacket, it's a sleek fitting gilet which can be tucked easily into a cycling jersey, ready to go. Moreover, when you're in the cut and thrust of the peloton this vest is super-quick to pull on and lets you get your hands back on the bars quicker, ready to forge ahead. 

Fully waterproof

The main body of the Aeron Lab vest is a 3 layer waterproof fabric, with fully taped seams, allowing dhb to create a fully waterproof garment and yet one that is incredibly light in weight. With exceptional breathability (30,000 g/m2-24hr) and waterproof (30,000 mmH2O) ratings, this is a special fabric which works hard to keep you comfortable in foul weather.

Maximum moisture control

While protection from the rain is a primary concern, dealing with sweat is also vital for comfort, and this is especially true when you're riding and racing hard. It's here the Aeron Lab Superlight also excels. The centre back panel makes use of the same material found in dhb's Lab Featherlight all-weather jersey. This fabric delivers incredible breathability, preventing the dreaded feel of clamminess you'd experience with lesser garments while still shrugging off rain.  

Race-ready, second-skin fit

Waterproof vests don’t have to flap in the wind. Made for top-level road cyclists with a cyclist’s physique, the Aeron LAB Superlight Waterproof Gilet has a close, uncompromising fit. It’s built for riding fast.

The stretch back panel improves the fit and maintains perfect freedom of movement, something you'll appreciate as you move around the bike, getting out of the saddle for climbing or getting into the drops when pushing the pace.

With a shortened front zip length designed for an aggressive riding position, the LAB Superlight Waterproof Gilet is perfect for riders who spend most of their ride at speed. Longer at the back to keep the worst of the weather off, the drop tail ensures full coverage even in an aggressive riding position. Two rear pockets provide easily accessible extra space for essentials, ideal if the rain fails to relent.
