FAQs
Is the fabric lightweight enough for very hot days?
Yes, the jersey is specifically crafted from soft, high-wicking material meant to provide breathability and comfort in summer heat.
Does this jersey have multiple pockets?
This model features a single, discreet rear zipped pocket intended for essentials.
Is the fit true to size?
It is designed as a slim fit. If you prefer a more relaxed or casual fit, many users find sizing up to be more comfortable.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the jersey to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers and reflective materials.
What does the 'recycled polyester' mean for durability?
Recycled polyester is as durable as virgin polyester and maintains its shape and moisture-wicking properties through frequent washing.
Is the jersey visible at night?
It features subtle reflective prints which enhance visibility in low-light conditions, though it is recommended to use additional lights for night riding.
Troubleshooting
Zipper sticks or does not slide smoothly
Check for fabric caught in the teeth and gently clear; you can lightly apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant if the issue persists.
Fabric holds odors after washing
Use a specialized sports laundry detergent designed to remove oils and bacteria from synthetic performance fibers.
Reflective elements appear dull
Ensure the garment is washed inside out to protect the reflective prints from friction against other clothes or the drum of the machine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Altura Airstream jersey, always follow the care label instructions. It is recommended to wash the garment in cold water with similar colors and avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can impede the wicking performance of the recycled polyester. Air drying is preferred to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the reflective prints. Because the jersey features a slim fit, we suggest verifying your measurements against the Altura size guide before purchase to ensure the best balance between aerodynamics and comfort.
