Weise Dynastar Evo - The best don't have to change, they just evolve
The Dynastar must be one of the best known biking jackets in Britain, and in no less than two previous incarnations, the Dynastar and Dynastar II, one of the biggest sellers. The reason was simple; a lot of thought had gone into even the smallest design detail, right down to choice of materials, fittings and the way the jacket was stitched together. The product punched well above its weight, delivering quality and functionality at a price other makers struggled to match. And word got around.
The Dynastar II, which is still available from some outlets, suited people who cared less about a label than actual performance in real-world conditions; they wanted something that looked good, for sure, but it had to work too; keeping them dry, comfortable and protected, day after day. And these riders worked hard for their money, so they didn't want to get ripped off either.
Popularity of the product shows that Weise got it right -no need for a radical new product. In 2012 Weise simply tweaked the basic design, keeping by and large to the same materials, but improving looks and adding a few new features. But did that mean that the Good evolved into the Better?
