Full details
The Altura Icon LS Jersey is a high-performance long-sleeve cycling garment designed for cyclists who ride in variable, chilly conditions and prioritize both warmth and road visibility. It excels by using advanced thermal fabrics to regulate body heat during intense efforts, though potential buyers should note that its semi-fitted cut is optimized for cycling postures rather than casual off-bike wear.

FAQs
Is this jersey windproof?
Yes, it features brushed back windproof fabric in key areas to provide protection against cold winds.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
No, you should not tumble dry the jersey. Air drying is essential to protect the fabric technology and the silicon grip.
Does it have a secure pocket for my keys?
Yes, the jersey includes one secure zip pocket specifically for valuables like keys or cards.
Is the jersey visible at night?
It features reflective detailing in key areas to improve your safety and visibility in low-light conditions.
What is the 'semi-fitted' cut?
The semi-fitted cut is a compromise between a tight race fit and a loose club fit, providing comfort while reducing excess fabric that can catch the wind.
Troubleshooting
Jersey feels loose at the hem during riding.
Ensure the branded silicon gripper is clean and free of debris, as dust can reduce its grip on your bib shorts.
Moisture is building up inside the jersey.
Check your base layer compatibility; ensure you are wearing a synthetic or merino base layer that wicks moisture effectively rather than a cotton shirt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Altura Icon LS Jersey maintains its performance properties, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the moisture-wicking pores of the technical fabric.
- Drying: Air dry the garment by hanging it in a shaded area. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the silicon grippers and the integrity of the Polartec fabric.
- Compatibility: This jersey is designed as a performance layer; it works best when paired with base layers that also manage moisture. The semi-fitted cut is designed to be worn over a base layer but under a heavier shell if riding in wet conditions.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the reflective detailing.
