FEATURES
Handlebar handles
We've added handlebar loops to the front of your LOU rain cape, so you can keep your hands and thighs dry. You preferred this system to a direct attachment of your cape to the handlebars, so that you can free yourself from your vehicle in the event of a fall. Finally, as you all have different handlebars, our LOU rain cape has two handle widths.
Tackle against the back
We have all observed and experienced it, the main problem with a poorly designed rain cape is that it flies and flaps in the wind. As a result, we added snaps to your stomach to press your rain cape against your back. We thus make you gain in aerodynamics, and above all we protect you from the rain that comes up from your rear wheel to gently redecorate your back...
Adjustable hood
Your LOU rain cape has a hood designed for use on two wheels: it is deep enough to fit over a bicycle helmet (scooter and biker friends, we do not recommend it), adjustable to resist the wind, released on the sides to preserve your lateral visibility, and finally shortenable (yes this word exists) to be able to wear it on a daily basis without a helmet.
TECHNICAL
Waterproofing (2 layers)
The outer fabric of your gear is waterproof to 10,000 millimeters on the Schmerber scale. Thus, it can only be crossed under a water column of 10 meters, a condition that we advise you not to reproduce at home. Not to mention that its seams are taped. So you will stay dry, even in heavy and/or long rain.
Water repellency
The outer fabric of your equipment is water repellent level 90 (ISO 4), i.e. very water repellent. The water will therefore slide off its surface in light and/or short rain, to avoid weighing down the textile, and will in any case be blocked by the waterproof membrane in the event of intense and/or long rain.
Visibility
Your equipment includes light-reflecting inserts and edging. You will therefore remain visible at night when other vehicles approach. And you will still be just as stylish during the day, because we have found your pearl in our ocean of suppliers: a textile that is as attractive as it is reflective.
To each his own style
A stylish and completely waterproof cape, I wear it even when I'm not cycling because I love it.

Payment in 3 or 4 installments free of charge because an investment can be financed
Buying technical and functional equipment to finally get on two wheels or continue to travel on two wheels in all weathers is an investment. So we have decided to invest alongside you by financing your payment ourselves in 3 or 4 installments free of charge.
-
Delivery refunded from 200€ of purchase because a delivery is not free
Delivery is a (hell) job, which we did for two years. We refuse to use the "free delivery" formula as a selling point, which devalues this work and promotes overconsumption. We "reimburse" your delivery from 200€ of purchase to metropolitan France.
-
Return offered because a return is better than abandonment
The best way to reduce the impact of your gear is to wear it whenever it's relevant. This is why if you have the slightest doubt about its size, color, material..., we prefer to offer you its return, so that it can be fitted to someone else, rather than knowing it has been abandoned in your closet. .
