Weather protected, anytime, anywhere.
We know you'll be riding in all weathers and all terrains, from training camps and sportives in mountainous areas to tapping out the mileage on your local roads. Wherever you may be the weather can be unpredictable and so you need kit you can rely on when things turn nasty. With Sportful's Hot Pack NoRain jacket you'll have total weather protection to hand at all times. It's Sportful's use of Aquasield and Micro-shell stretch fabrics that creates such an incredibly lightweight, packable jacket that also offers total waterproofness. Fully taped seams stops any seeping, while a waterproof YKK zipper seals the jacket completely at the front. This performance doesn't come with any weight penalties though, the jacket weighing only 128 grams and easily fitting in your jersey pocket. Cut is ergonomic, the stretch panels designed to give a perfect fit - no watts wasted combating a flappy jacket as you sweep a fast descent or power on the flat! The cut is longer at the rear with silicone gripper keeping your rear nicely covered, thumb loops at the wrist creates a perfect closure here too.
Acquashield lightweight protection
Specially developed by Sportful for the ultra-lightweight and totally waterproof Hot Pack NoRain jacket, the AcquaShield fabric is a 15 denier 2.5 layer ripstop fabric with 10,000 mm water column water proofing and very good 10,000mvp breathability, all in an incredibly light 55 gm/m2 fabric that minimizes space in your pocket when the jacket is not needed.
Micro-shell Stretch fabric
This innovative new fabric is ideal for outer shells. It features 10,000 mm water column for complete waterproof protection, 10,000 mv/p breathability, and remarkable stretch thanks to its elastic polyurethane membrane. This innovative new fabric is ideal for outer shells.
Sizing
The jacket comes quite small so it is advised to go up a size from your normal size pick.
The Sportful story began in 1946, when the Cremonese family opened a knitwear factory named Manifattura Valcismon. Over the years, production evolved toward the manufacture of high-quality underwear. The real turning point came in 1972, when Dr. Giordano Cremonese, who had taken over the management of the business from his parents, wanted to participate in the newly established Marcialonga cross-country ski race but did not have appropriate clothing. He decided to use the family business to produce the necessary apparel and what had begun as a personal need grew into an unprecedented success. This was the beginning of the Sportful brand. In 1985, seeing the great demand for technical cycling apparel and encouraged by the company's remarkable success in cross-country skiing, Sportful embarked on a new adventure - Cycling. It wasn’t long before they were involved at the highest level, equipping teams such as Alfa Lum, Ariostea and Mapei, the latter dominating the classics throughout the 90s. Some of their greatest achievements came when the Italian national team used Sportful apparel, with World Championship victories for Bettini, Cipollini and Ballan. The success continued with their Saxo Bank partnership, victories in all three grand tours, and multiple classics wins from the likes of Cancellara ,Contador and Sagan. Working with pro team athletes Sportful strives to make the best possible performance apparel for all conditions. Sportful is currently the official technical clothing partner Trek Segafredo and Drops Women's cycling team.

All the seams are taped, and on a few wet rides, I haven't noticed any rain getting in anywhere, although on one wet but warm day there was a bit of moisture build-up in the lower half of the sleeves. I gave it an extra check by wearing it in the shower, over a long-sleeve cotton top, and there wasn't a trace of water getting through. It also has stretchy Lycra cuffs with thumb-holes, and there's a curve to the cuff shape that really tucks the waterproof fabric right down and under all but the shortest mitts/gloves. The moisture inside the sleeves that I experienced suggests it's not that breathable if you were having to wear it for long periods in wet weather, but I did use it as a windproof on a cold but mostly dry three-hour-plus ride and didn't feel at all clammy. There was the odd spit-spot of rain that encouraged me to keep it on when I might otherwise have removed it on a long climb, but I certainly didn't feel boil-in-the-bag or anywhere close to that. The only disappointment – for me – is that the new NoRain jacket has been redesigned to have a slimmer, racier fit, which helps explain why I had to go from a medium to a large. (The photos are of me in the medium.) But even then the large is tight around the hips; there doesn't seem to be any particular shaping for a typical woman's curves, and I'm not particularly hippy (somewhere between size 10 and 12 trousers). Stretching the hems of both the old and new jackets as wide as they would go, the windproof – in medium – has nearly a couple of inches more than the large size NoRain. The other issue is that it doesn't pack away as small as the older windproof version, and it takes more time/patience/technique getting it to fit into its own bag (in the rear pocket). I'm not criticising it for that – you're getting a lot more protection here, the windproof couldn't keep me dry in heavier, more persistent rain – it's just something to be aware of. Overall, I'm very pleased with the jacket's performance, and it's certainly the one I'd choose to squeeze into my jersey pocket if the weather was looking at all iffy. But I'm less pleased with the fit; I do wish Sportful had given a bit more thought to a woman's hips. A very good lightweight waterproof, if not as packable as the windproof option or as forgiving of curves
