The Rain jacket from Gonso made from a 2.5-layer laminate which, according to the manufacturer, has a PFC-free impregnation (perfluorinated and polyfluorinated chemicals).) is used, which does not require reproofing. The material feels very robust against the skin and does not feel sweaty. All seams are taped, the zip is backed and the workmanship is top quality. Reflective material and a central back pocket with zip for odds and ends are useful details; its sporty cut and extra-long sleeves with asymmetrical cuffs should make the jacket ideal for ambitious cyclists.
How the Gonso Save Jacket Road M performed in the test
The Gonso is robust and top-quality; its cut is not very adapted to the bent cycling position.
Conclusion on the rain jacket from Gonso
They feel comfortable to wear and are not sweaty. The robust material rustles audibly. The cut is very short - the buttocks remain uncovered, while too much fabric billows at the chest and stomach. The sleeves are nice and long and generously cut. The workmanship is excellent: no loose threads, precise seams - the brand quality is evident here. However, the cut does not really suit the sporty posture on the bike, and the excess material makes it difficult to operate the zip with one hand. The jacket is only available as a men's model, but up to size 6XL. Thanks to the wide sleeves, it is particularly suitable for athletic types with strong arms who tend to sit upright on the bike.
