An Alpkit classic. Your new best friend, on the hill, screaming down singletrack or bouncing across rutted moorland. A 2.5-layer legend, Pulsar lightweight, waterproof, breathable smock has your back (and your front, head, and arms for that matter).

Roll it, pack it, stuff it; but always take it - packs down to virtually nothing and is worth its weight in gold when the sky falls in.

  • Waterproof stretch fabric that moves with you (20K HH, 20K MVTR)
  • A slim fit and cut that’s designed for movement
  • Front kangaroo pocket with mesh vent
  • PFC Free DWR treatment to protect our wild places from persistent chemicals

Made from premium Japanese 2.5 layer fabric with a soft yet durable ripstop nylon face, the Pulsar balances protection from wind and rain with comfort and stretch for a more active fit designed for moving in. The PU membrane with 20K/20K performance keeps the rain out and is highly breathable. This allows moisture from your body to escape, which means you can comfortably leave it on longer.

Bung it on when you're out for a walk or ride in changeable weather, leave it on to keep the wind off and stuff it into rucksack and bike luggage crevices when the weather clears. It's so light that you'll forget it's there until you need it.

It’s not just about comfort though: the Pulsar is intended for action. The stealthy soft fabric and slimmer fit reduce rustling in strong winds and at high speeds. And the half-zip smock design is more comfortable for hunching over the bars on your bike or running pack straps with a drop hem to cover your bum.

The fully adjustable hood with wired peak will fit snugly over a bike helmet and a drop hem keeps your bum covered. If you overheat, the elasticated Velcro cuffs can be pushed up to your elbows and the kangaroo pocket contains a big mesh vent.

Sustainability and Product Care

Product Care Information

Caring For Your DWR
To keep your jacket’s durable water repellent (DWR) treatment in tip-top condition, wash it regularly in pure soap or a specialist cleaner. You may also need to refresh the treatment about once or twice a year (depending on usage) using a reproofer. Using a spray-on reproofer maintains your jacket's wicking ability.

Washing Instructions
Wash on a delicate cycle at 30˚C or hand wash with lukewarm water. Use a technical wash product (like Nikwax Tech Wash or Grangers Performance Wash) or pure soap. DO NOT use detergent, fabric conditioners or softeners. Rinse thoroughly in clean water. Line dry or tumble dry on low heat. You can also use a cool iron to reactivate the DWR.

Sustainability

PFC-Free DWR
The Pulsar uses a completely PFC-free DWR treatment on its outer fabric. PFCs are potentially harmful and have been found to build up in the environment. We don't like the sound of that so we've been working hard to get rid of them.
