Apparel brand Santini Cycling and fabric specialist Polartec have introduced a new rain jacket, MAGIC, made from Polartec Power Shield RPM fabric.
MAGIC is claimed to be a unique waterproof jacket featuring a highly breathable monolithic membrane and durable water repellent (DWR) treatment. 100% recycled polyester, Polartec Power Shield RPM fabric is waterproof, non-PFAS, lightweight, and stretchy.
The recycled 2-layer polyester fabric claims to offer best-in-class waterproofing and breathability. Santini added that the 100% recycled polyester membrane is designed for high-intensity activities.
Polartec Power Shield RPM features a durable, non-PFAS coating that repels precipitation and is breathable. It also claims to reduce overheating by up to 50% compared to other Polartec membranes.
The fabric’s stretch allows for full range of movement, and the use of sustainably sourced recycled polyester helps reduce the product’s carbon footprint.
Thermosealed and abrasion resistant, the Santini MAGIC jacket features an extended back panel. It is also lightweight (M size, 155g) so it can be stored when riding.
The MAGIC jacket has a double front zipper that opens from both the bottom and top, a high collar for protection from the elements, and a reflective Santini logo on the back for increased visibility and safety during low-light hours.
The MAGIC jacket has an RRP of £190 and is available in black exclusively at all Santini stores and VIA stores in London and online at santinicycling.com. Additional color variations and sleeveless versions will then be released in the Spring/Summer 2025 collection.
