Review:
The Adidas Premiere Riding Jacket is a a lightweight technical shell that has a classic throwback look you would expect from the brand with three stripes. It utilizes color-blocking well so that the jacket stands out slightly from the rest of the crowd. I was drawn to the simplicity of the Jacket and was interested in how it would handle wind, cold and snow.
The premiere riding jacket is a very lightweight piece with large side pockets, small chest vents (would prefer slightly larger vents), an adjustable hood and an internal media pocket (fits most sized phones). I’ve tested it in windy snowy conditions down to about 25 degrees Fahrenheit and it has proven to be a great jacket for most conditions. The waterproof/breathability level is good for most resort riding and some sidecountry tours. This jacket really excels as very lightweight shell for layering underneath on colder days. It’s a looser fit so you can layer easily and not feel constrained, and the longer sleeves allow you to pull the adjustable velcro cuffs over your gloves/mittens easily. If I could change anything on the jacket it would be the chest vents it feels like they won’t provide enough ventilation on warm days, and I would also add another internal pocket.
Overall:
I’m a fan of this jacket for it’s low price point (($180 U.S.) and the minimalistic look with a splash of color. This is a great option for a technical shell for resort riding on most winter days or cooler spring days.
Pros
- lightweight
- Good 10K Waterproofing/Breathability
- Superior construction
- Great for layering and using in most conditions
- Loose fit is not too baggy
Cons
- Needs additional internal pockets
- Chest Vents could be larger for better venting on warmer days
