Updated, re-imagined and re-engineered for 2024/5, the brand new Spatz 'SHIELD2' winter jacket is unlike anything available on the market today. The new version is sleeker, better fitting and more breathable than before, whilst retaining the legendary warmth, water-proofing and comfort of the original 'SHIELD' jacket.

The design brief for the Spatz 'SHIELD2' winter jacket was very simple: Design and produce the only cycling jacket you will need to train/ride through a harsh winter, regardless of the conditions.

We are very proud to say that this product is designed, tested and manufactured in the North of England and is made of 100% recycled fabrics too. Water repellent coatings are plant based and PFC free and the packaging is fully compostable.

The cut of the Spatz 'SHIELD2' winter jacket is close and aero whilst allowing room for Spatz base layer(s) to nestle comfortably below. In true Spatz style, the neck is cut high and the arms are cut close and long. The front of the jacket is trimmed short for comfort in a cycling position and the brand new rear flap is cut long to protect you from spray.

As lifetime cyclists (and a double Olympic Champion), we spend a lot of time on a bike in the cold. It was important to add such features as; 3x rear pockets and a zippered rear coin/phone pocket. The pockets are cut and positioned to offer easy access on the bike, (especially with gloved hands). Logos are dark grey reflective print for a stealth aesthetic that glows up bright in the traffic.

For 24/25 every panel is updated and improved. For the main body and upper arms, we have specified a brand new 'Windtex Evolution Active Pro' fabric. 'Windtex Evolution Active Pro' simply outperformed all the other fabrics we tested for this application. It is not only waterproof and windproof but also thermal, highly breathable and incredibly comfortable. The fabric offers 4-way stretch and has a brushed fleece lining to trap warm air and encourage moisture to wick away. It partners brilliantly with our legendary Spatz Base Layers.

New for 24/25, the lower arm sections, collar and rear hem are made of a hydrophobic neoprene-like fabric and are laser cut to remove the need for a bulky hem. This means we can cut the openings close and clean to offer a seamless transition from jacket to gloves and tights. Comfort is increased and water ingress is minimised. Sleeves are cut to work in unison with the Spatz Gloves range and the collar and rear hem sit beautifully against the body. Our goal has always been to produce a modular clothing system where each seperate garment integrates together in unison and can be tuned to suit the environment.

The rear panel is PFC free, plant based DWR coated Roubaix fabric to allow articulation, warmth and breathability. Again, this fabric has a brushed fleece internal face and 4-way stretch.

It has been our aim to produce our apparel in the UK since our incorporation in 2017. We are very pleased to have teamed up with Lusso in Manchester to manufacture this product with us. We have brought our design and technical knowledge and paired it with Lusso's legendary manufacturing expertise and attention to detail. Together we have produced what we think is the very best apparel currently available.
