I've just got my 3rd Baked Alaska after scrapping my second sliding down the road. For me these are a must have bit of kit after getting my first as a prize in the Crater Rim race back in the mists of time. I never leave home without it in winter. It's the goldilocks weight/warmth. The length, the neck, the pockets, the zip length all perfect. Neat and stylie for pub and travel, durable and cosy on the bike.
One of my better tops for cool conditions. Works well with a moisture wicking base layer underneath. I’m 6’3” with 44” chest and the XL is a generous fit. If your borderline on the size chart and prefer athletic fit then consider going down to the smaller option.
Absolutely happy with the quality and performance of the product. Awesome customer service and fast delivery.
This is my 3rd Baked Alaska. The best winter top you can buy for winter riding. Quality is the best. I’ve been riding 25 years and started using the Baked Alaska 10 years ago. They last me about 3 years of solid riding and washing.
Like a cycling top and a windproof vest had a baby. High collar and zipped up keeps the chill out, but the long zip allows plentiful cooling when required. Loving it as an autumn top.
