The 2025 FR-C Pro Vest is a refined, race-ready layer engineered for elite-level protection against wind and light rain. Designed with a breathable yet waterproof 3-layer construction, this vest defends your core from the elements without compromising fit, comfort, or aerodynamic efficiency. Lightweight, compact, and easy to pack, it's the ideal layer for cool descents, unpredictable weather, or early-season rides. New for 2025, the vest features a re-engineered pattern that provides a more accommodating fit for a variety of body types while preserving its performance-driven silhouette. Whether layered over a jersey or worn as a wind-blocking shield during efforts, the FR-C Pro Vest is the perfect blend of versatility and precision tailoring.
The outer shell is made from 100% polyester for durable, weather-resistant performance, while the back panel incorporates 94% polyester and 6% elastane for improved breathability and stretch. This combination creates a snug yet unrestrictive fit that moves with you in aggressive riding positions and maintains a sleek profile in the wind. The zipper lining—crafted from an 80% polyamide and 20% elastane blend—adds soft, flexible reinforcement, while pocket panels use 85% polyamide and 15% elastane to strike a balance between support and comfort.
The vest features a 2-way waterproof zipper with a cam-lock pull tab for easy ventilation and adaptable access. Whether you’re reaching jersey pockets or adjusting airflow on a climb, this zipper is built for function on the move. A wind flap backing helps prevent cold air from slipping through, while a thermal welded front waistband and subtle silicone gripper at the back hem lock the vest in place without added bulk. These barely-there details ensure the garment stays secure at high speed and in variable conditions, enhancing both fit and feel on long rides.
At just 3.1 oz (88 g) in a size medium, the FR-C Pro Vest is incredibly lightweight and stowable. Finished with updated 2025 Giordana branding and proudly made in Italy, this piece offers essential protection, refined fit, and minimal weight—making it a must-have for serious cyclists navigating unpredictable conditions with style and performance in mind.
