APIDURA - PACKABLE VISIBILITY VEST

Our EN 17353 certified Packable Visibility Vest is an indispensable item for night riding, audax, ultra-distance and bikepacking.

The Packable Visibility Vest is certified to the European EN 17353 standard, making it compliant for use at events such as Paris-Brest-Paris, as well as other audax and ultra-distance competitions.

With 360-degree graphics designed around on-bike position and night-time reflectivity, this is a must-have addition to any rider’s pack list. Adjustable straps with eight different positions ensure fit for a wide range of body types whilst also allowing the vest to be worn over bulky layers (such as a down jacket) or, a low-profile item like our Racing Series Hydration Vest.

Constructed from a lightweight, breathable and wicking mesh fabric, the Packable Visibility Vest weighs just 106g (S/M). Packing into an integrated pocket for ease of storage, it can comfortably fit into a jersey and deployed when required.

The minimal design balances visibility, on-bike comfort and packability to create the perfect balance for ultra-distance, audax, bikepacking and night riding.

SIZING AND FIT

The Packable Visibility Vest comes in two sizes to accommodate riders of all shapes and has been designed with all-day comfort in mind. For choosing your size, we recommend measuring your chest circumference whilst wearing your regular riding gear. The Packable Visibility Jacket has been designed with night riding in mind, it has been sized to accommodate additional layers often worn in low-light conditions. With your arms relaxed at your sides, measure around the fullest part of your chest with a flexible measuring tape. For riders that fit both sizes, we recommend sizing down.

The small/medium vest is designed for riders with a 90-105cm chest measurement and the large/extra large will fit riders that measure from 106-122cm.

As devoted adventure cyclists, we design with our fellow riders in mind, creating products that address genuine needs and bring new value to the bikepacking scene. We create the best packs we can, using technical materials and precision crafting techniques – and when we find a way to improve them we do so straight away and without fanfare. We don’t do ‘seasons’, limited editions or discount our gear – we simply create the best possible technical bikepacking gear that’s built to last.
