There’s a lot of times in my product reviews, regardless of the original intent of the product, where I take it for a trail-run to see if it’s functional in different sports and conditions. It’s especially true with Showers Pass. A lot of the products we’ve reviewed were originally intended for cycling, but worked just More
As cases nationwide continue to increase, if you aren’t wearing a mask for outdoor activities, what are you thinking? Showers Pass Ion-Defense Face Mask is probably the most high-tech and most comfortable face mask I’ve worn. The mask utilizes ion-emitting nano-particles that neutralizes viruses and bacteria within minutes of contact. The fabric is also treated for More
A year ago I thought I had discovered the be-all end-all of cycling jackets: their Hi-Vis Torch Jacket. And until this moment, it had been my go-to commuter jacket. Showers Pass has exceeded my expectations with the release of the Elements Jacket. What sets the Elements Jacket apart from the Hi-Vis Torch or other Showers More
Showers Pass Cross Country DWR 11.5” Shorts are an amazing short to ride in. They are loose enough where you can move around freely, but not so loose that it catches and snags on the saddle. The waistband has a silicone grip to make sure it doesn’t slide down. Over the testng period, I found More
Now that I have a gravel bike, Showers Pass has become a staple of my daily commute. Gloves, jacket, hat—always. But now that it’s summer, their new Gravel 10” Shorts that Showers Pass sent to test, have replaced them. What I love most about them is that I can wear them comfortably all day. My More
Yesterday was a great day for some product testing. It was cold, wet, and I was going a little stir crazy with the state-wide stay-at-home order due to the Coronavirus. Showers Pass products, because of their durability in those conditions, have become a go-to. Depending on the weather, I regularly wear their Hi-Vis Torch Jacket, More
I bike to work several days a week, and even though most of my commute happens on trails, visibility is key. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve started the bike ride home from the office and had my taillight die or rode by another cyclist in a similar situation. On the road, it’s More
I know I’ll lose credibility when I say this, but I do most of my outdoor activities with the less-than-superior Apple Watch. I use the Strava app, and since their “Auto Pause” feature doesn’t register progress during steep climbs, I run with “Auto Pause” off and manually pause the watch whenever I need to stop More
I had just begun a trail run on a wet, snowy night when my foot broke through a layer of snow into an ankle-deep puddle of cold water. Normally there’d be swearing and I’ve have to cut my run short. Running with wet, cold feet for any length of time is plain miserable. But my More
The Smith Forefront 2 stands head and shoulders above their competition. It’s integration of Koroyd—what looks like a series of stacked neon green, short, straw-like structures—adds an extra layer of ventilation and performance. Unlike it’s predecessor, the original Forefront, the Koroyd material is now split into two channels to allow for a larger air vent More
