Q36.5

Air Vest

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I bring the Air Vest on every ride—it’s light enough to forget about in my pocket, but it totally blocks wind on fast descents or during unexpected mountain chills. The stretch fit stays aero and doesn’t flap, and I really appreciate the breathable back panel when I start pushing the pace."

The Q36.5 Air Vest is the kind of layer we bring on every ride—because conditions change fast, and this ultralight vest keeps us ready. Built from a high-density stretch-woven fabric, it offers exceptional wind protection and light rain resistance without ever feeling bulky or stiff. The minimalist construction packs down small enough to disappear into a jersey pocket until we need it—on fast descents, at high elevations, or when storm clouds roll in.

Body-mapped for an aerodynamic fit, the Air Vest moves with us thanks to its four-way stretch and pre-shaped paneling. The breathable mesh back balances airflow, and reflective details keep us visible in tunnels or low light. At just 69 grams, it delivers high-output performance with barely-there weight—ideal for everything from winter base miles to summer summit missions.
