FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the Q-Wic Plus fabric?
The Q-Wic Plus fabric is designed to quickly wick sweat and moisture away from your skin, helping you stay dry and comfortable during physical activity. It also aids in rapid drying.
How does the anti-bacterial feature work?
The fabric is treated with anti-bacterial agents that inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep the jersey fresh for longer periods.
Can I wear this jersey in cold weather?
This is a lightweight jersey primarily designed for warmer conditions. For cold weather, it's recommended to layer it over or under appropriate insulating apparel.
How many pockets does the jersey have and where are they located?
The jersey features three compartment pockets located on the back, providing convenient storage for cycling essentials.
What is the UV protection rating?
The jersey offers a UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) of 50+, providing excellent protection against harmful UV rays.
How should I wash the jersey to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold (30°C), use a mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and ironing.
Are the reflective details visible in all conditions?
The reflective detailing is designed to enhance visibility in low-light conditions such as dawn, dusk, or overcast days. It is not intended for high-visibility in complete darkness without an external light source.
Troubleshooting
Jersey feels damp or sticky
Ensure the Q-Wic Plus fabric is functioning correctly by washing the jersey with a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can impede wicking properties. Ensure proper drying after washing.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. If it's stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specific zipper lubricant can help. Ensure the zipper is clean.
Pockets feel loose or items fall out
Ensure items are placed correctly within the three-compartment pockets. For smaller items, consider using a small zip-lock bag. The elasticated hem should help keep pockets secure, but avoid overstuffing.
Odor persists after washing
Use a sports-specific detergent designed to remove odors from synthetic fabrics. A vinegar soak (1 part vinegar to 10 parts water) before washing can also help break down odor-causing bacteria.
