Scott Trail MTN Dryo 30 jacket


Scott consistently produce well-designed kit and the Trail MTN doesn’t disappoint, even though it’s not bike-specific. If you’re tall you’ll appreciate the long sleeves and extra body length, which, combined with the roomy (but not baggy) fit, make it supremely comfortable. The lightweight waterproof and windproof fabric has a high degree of stretch and is very warm but breathes well too – we never felt like we were in danger of overheating. The generous peaked hood goes over a helmet but is so well shaped it moves with your head and doesn’t obscure your vision. Other details include underarm perforations, welded seams, zipped hand-warmer pockets and usefully long zip-pulls. The Trail MTN Dryo 30 isn’t cheap but the quality and comfort make it worth the investment.
