Breckenridge WX-D Vest will not only provide an optimal performance fit, but the 3 layer laminate fabric allows for exceptional stretch while having unparalleled wind and water resistant characteristics. BreatheLITE fine mesh fabric is used in the back and side panels for increased breathability. The full-size, rear pockets include a triple layer fabric for protection from road spray.
WHY BRECKENRIDGE?
We named this vest for Breckenridge, Colorado, one of our home state's premiere cycling destinations and its access to endless networks of trails, miles of smooth pavement, and incredible mountain vistas. Breckenridge is also a regular host for world-class bike races, such The Firecracker 50 and USA Pro Challenge.
We partnered with artists Andrew Harris and Seitu Barnes to release limited edition Black History kits, celebrating Past, Present and Future.
Pactimo will donate $10 from the sale of each Breckenridge WX-D Vest to two organizations, Major Taylor Iron Riders Development Team & the Thurgood Marshall College Fund.
Black History Month Kits
"Unification and togetherness was what we hoped to convey and I guess, achieve more of. And
as always, we're interested in making a statement and designing something that people are proud to wear and feel empowered while wearing it - but also something that's just fire. These kits are fire.”
- Andrew Harris
When I'm not on the bike, I'm an architect, graphic designer, and salsa dancer. At the intersection of all my work is community, and I approach all projects with an eye towards details that tell stories.
