Comments about Showers Pass Elite 2.1 Bike Jacket - Men's:
I bought this jacket for my fiance as a gift after the zipper broke on an older version of the jacket (REI would have repaired it but I went for an upgrade instead). Two days after I got it for him, he crashed and tumbled on the pavement. He expected the elbow to be completely ripped out, but the jacket totally took the beating with HARDLY a scuff. It was amazing! I am 100% satisfied with this purchase. He uses it to bike to work any day that it's rainy and he loves how breathable it is, while keeping him dry.

Comments about Showers Pass Elite 2.1 Bike Jacket - Men's:
I purchased this jacket primarily for rowing and bicycling. Normally I find any goretex jacket gets wet and clammy inside when I'm doing max heart rate activities. This one lives up to the hype and lets my steam right out - you can see it.
It's a little short in the front for a tall individual but that means no bunching when biking or rowing. The sleeves are a perfect length.
The pit zips were an important feature for me versus the other eVent coats to allow some extra ventilation and reduce how often the jacket will need washing.
Only improvement I would suggest is adding a small tucked-away hood that can be pulled out as needed.
