FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features a Pertex Shield 3-layer fabric with a 20,000mm water column rating, which is considered fully waterproof for severe weather conditions.

How do I use the Triple Zip system?

The main zip uses a single slider with an oversized puller for easy engagement. The parallel zip allows you to open the jacket from the bottom for venting or to access your chest pocket.

Can I wear this jacket for running?

While it is technically possible, the cut is specifically engineered for the on-bike position, meaning the sleeves and torso length are optimized for cycling and may not feel comfortable for running.

How packable is the jacket?

It is designed to be highly compressible and can easily fit into a standard rear jersey pocket when not in use.

What does C0 DWR mean?

C0 refers to a DWR treatment that is free from long-chain fluorocarbons, making it a more environmentally friendly option while still providing water repellency.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR coating may need reactivation. Clean the garment and tumble dry on low heat, or re-apply a DWR spray treatment.

Zips feel stiff or difficult to slide

Ensure no grit or dirt is trapped in the zipper track. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof and breathability ratings
  • Lightweight and packable design
  • Innovative Triple Zip is intuitive in bad weather
  • Excellent ventilation options for high-output riding

Cons

  • Fit is optimized specifically for cycling
  • Requires proper care to maintain DWR effectiveness
  • More expensive than basic rain shells

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Albion All Road Rain Jacket is designed to fit over your standard cycling kit. Because the cut is specific to the on-bike position, try the garment in a riding tuck to ensure the sleeves are long enough and the back hem provides adequate coverage. To maintain the effectiveness of the PFC-free DWR coating, wash the jacket periodically with technical garment cleaners designed for waterproof shells. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the coating. Hang dry the garment to ensure the fabric membrane remains in optimal condition and, if necessary, tumble dry on a low heat setting periodically to reactivate the DWR finish.
