FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Native eco fabric inserts?
The Native eco fabric inserts are designed with a micromesh structure to enhance breathability and improve airflow, helping to keep the body dry and comfortable during strenuous activity.
How do the cargo pockets function?
There are three open rear cargo pockets for easy access to items like energy bars or gels, and one additional zipped compartment for securely storing more valuable items such as keys or a phone.
Is this jersey suitable for cold weather cycling?
No, this is a lightweight, short-sleeve jersey designed for warm weather. It offers breathability and moisture management but provides minimal insulation against cold temperatures.
What does the 'anatomical neck-cut' mean?
The anatomical neck-cut refers to a shape designed to follow the natural contour of the neck, reducing pressure points and friction for improved comfort during prolonged riding.
How do I ensure the jersey stays in place?
The jersey features a silicone gripper at the bottom hem, which helps to keep it securely in place against your body and prevent it from riding up while you are cycling.
What is the fabric composition of the main body and inserts?
The main fabric is composed of 91% Polyamide and 9% Elastane. The insert fabric is 90% Polyester and 10% Elastane.
Can I wash this jersey in a washing machine?
Yes, it is recommended to machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of lubrication (like graphite from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth might help.
Jersey feels tight or constricting
This jersey has an anatomical, close-fitting design. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different model with a more relaxed fit.
Reflective details are peeling off
This can occur with improper washing or drying. Avoid high heat and harsh detergents. If the issue is minor, it may not affect functionality, but significant peeling should be avoided by following care instructions strictly.
Pockets feel too small for essentials
While designed for essentials, specific items like larger smartphones or cycling computers might not fit comfortably. Distribute weight evenly across the pockets. For larger items, consider a cycling bag or saddle pouch.
