The Flux jacket is Madison's premiere waterproof jacket, designed to cope with whatever the weather decides to chuck your way when out on the trails. When it isn't covered in mud this is a very stylish jacket you could happily wear down the high street. The hardwearing material is both breathable and waterproof, perfect for those all too familiar days when the weather just can't make up its mind about what it wants to do. Should things start to get a bit too heated you can always open up the two pit vents and get a nice stream of fresh air going.
Buy Jackets onThere are three front pockets as well as a phone/mp3 player pocket, all of which can be zipped up so you don't lose your valuables as you blast along. As well as that there's also a large stash pocket at the rear of the jacket, perfect for energy gels and the like. The main front zipper is waterproof, taped and includes an internal storm flap to prevent any water or cold air getting through. A super soft fleece lined collar means the jacket has a nice feel against your neck and cheeks, depending on how hunched up you are! A great choice for when the weather turns nasty, either on your local trails, or taking on something more gnarly in the Alps the Flux is a serious jacket for the rider who is serious about staying dry in the worst weather conditions!
