The Cinder range of cycling kit from Rab is designed for all kinds of adventures on two wheels. Whether it's a quick lap of the local woodland trails or a cross-continent bikepacking expedition, you can rely on Cinder clothing to go the distance.
The Cinder Kinetic Waterproof Jacket is great for wet weather trail rides or winter bikepacking. It's made from Rab's soft and stretchy Proflex waterproof fabric which offers the protection of a hardshell with the feel of a softshell. What sets Proflex apart from other waterproof fabrics is its fantastic breathability. It keeps you protected from the rain without making you clammy inside the jacket.
The jacket is incredibly comfortable, thanks to a bike-specific cut. An over-helmet hood and drop tail shelter your face from the rain and rear from tyre spray. Minimalist features like the stretch-bound cuffs keep the weight down but there are still two pockets, one on the front and one on the rear, for stowing ride essentials.

-

PFC-Free DWR
Fluorinated DWR finishes make clothing waterproof by repelling water droplets. ‘PFCs’ is the broad term for all fluorocarbon chemicals, of which PFOS and PFOA are sub-groups. Different chemicals in this family have a varying number of carbon atoms, so C6 has six carbon atoms and C8 has eight. While the outdoor industry has moved away from C8 (or 'long chain') PFCs, C6 (short chain) PFCs are currently unbeatable in their waterproofing performance. They're considered less harmful to the environment than C8, but they have not been proven to be safe. PFCs are known as forever chemicals; once created they will never break down and are harmful to people and the planet. To read more about the chemistry related to PFCs, head here.
PFC-Free DWR uses alternative, biodegradable technologies that repels water from the surface of a fabric - such as Fjallraven's Greenland Wax. PFC-Free DWR coatings are water resistant enough for most daily activities, so if you don’t need a highly technical waterproof, consider a PFC-Free garment instead.
-
Recycled Fabrics
By recycling fabrics, we are not only stopping extra waste heading to landfill but also reducing the need for virgin fabrics to be created. Recycled fabrics can be anything from recycled polyester to recycled cotton and where recycled cotton is used, it's often offcuts from factory floors that would otherwise end up in landfill.
