Endura Convert Softshell review

Endura Convert softshell, 7 of the best winter jackets
Cycling Weekly Verdict

The fabric resists rain pretty well but the zippered sleeve openings and fixtures are an obvious weakness when it's pouring down - swings and roundabouts. The fit is suited to less aggressive riding positions, but it's still suitable for riders of all types of bikes.

Reasons to buy

    Two jackets in one

  • +

    Sensible pocket arrangement

Versatility is the key word used in the first line of the Convert's product description.
