Full details
The Albion Traverse Long Sleeve Jersey is designed for endurance cyclists who require thermal protection and high-capacity storage during long-distance rides in cold conditions. This jersey balances insulation with flexibility through its brushed back 4-way stretch fabric, though its performance-focused, close-to-body fit may require riders to size up if they prefer a more relaxed layering system.

FAQs
Is the jersey waterproof?
The jersey is designed for warmth and breathability; it is not waterproof and may require an additional shell in heavy rain.
Can I use the chest pocket for a smartphone?
Yes, the zippable front chest pocket is sized to accommodate most modern smartphones securely.
Does the jersey include UV protection?
While the fabric provides a physical barrier, it is primarily engineered for thermal insulation rather than specific UV filtering.
How should I layer under this jersey?
For optimal performance, wear a moisture-wicking synthetic or merino wool base layer underneath.
Is the rear mesh pocket secure?
The mesh tunnel pocket is designed for easy-access gear, though it is best suited for lightweight items like arm warmers or gilets.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks during use
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently clean any debris or salt buildup from the zip track.
Jersey feels too tight in the shoulders
This is a performance-fit garment; ensure you are not wearing overly bulky base layers that may conflict with the close-to-body engineering.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the jersey, machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners or bleaching agents, as these can compromise the technical properties of the brushed fabric and the reflective detailing. It is recommended to air dry the jersey flat to prevent the stretch material from becoming over-extended. The jersey is designed to be worn as a primary outer layer in cool conditions or as a mid-layer underneath a shell in harsh winter environments.
