[ad3]With timing that couldn’t be better, we just received our ACRE Supply Meridian Jacket in the middle of two weeks of rain in the Santa Cruz area. Based out of San Francisco, ACRE makes high end packs and apparel that are designed specifically around cycling. This includes everything from how the jacket articulates, cut, and the shape of the hood. All of their products are made in North America and are built with bad weather very much in mind. The Meridian is a follow up to the highly praised Orion jacket. Here are some of the clever details on the new jacket.
