The Pearl Izumi Men’s Prospect Barrier Jacket is a windproof shell designed for male cyclists commuting by bike in fall conditions or variable weather. It uses a stretchy 88% recycled polyester and 12% elastane face fabric with PI Dry technology to shed light rain and road spray, keeping you dry during short showers without heavy insulation for layering over base layers or jerseys. The regular fit hip-length design allows movement for on-bike pedaling, with a helmet-compatible hood, stand-up collar, full zip closure, and storm flap to block wind. Visibility aids include transparent reflective accents, a snap-to-stow BioViz Screaming Red pennant on the cuff, and pockets for storage. It’s suited for road cycling around town where you need protection from wind and drizzle; care involves gentle wash and low-heat dry to maintain fabric performance.
