FAQs
What type of cycling is this jersey best suited for?
This jersey is best suited for road cycling, training rides, and general cycling activities where breathability, comfort, and a degree of aerodynamics are important, especially in warm weather.
How do the raw-cut sleeves affect comfort and performance?
Raw-cut sleeves are designed to lie flat against the skin, reducing drag and providing a seamless feel. They are often slightly longer to further enhance aerodynamics and can offer increased comfort by avoiding traditional hem constrictions.
Is the UPF 30+ protection permanent?
The UPF rating is inherent to the fabric construction and treatments. While it offers durable protection, it's always best to follow the recommended care instructions to maintain the fabric's integrity and protective qualities over time.
Can I wear a base layer underneath this jersey?
Yes, you can wear a base layer underneath. A moisture-wicking base layer can enhance sweat management further, especially in very hot conditions or for high-intensity efforts. Ensure the base layer is also form-fitting to maintain the jersey's aerodynamic benefits.
How durable are the cargo pockets?
The cargo pockets feature reinforced seams, which adds to their durability. However, they are designed for cycling essentials and should not be overloaded or used to carry sharp objects that could puncture the fabric.
What does YKK® Camlock zip mean?
YKK® is a brand of high-quality zippers. A 'Camlock' zip typically has a mechanism that allows the pull tab to be locked in place, preventing it from bouncing or sliding open unintentionally during activity.
Does the blue color fade easily?
The jersey is made with quality materials and dyes designed for sportswear. Following the recommended cold wash and hang-dry care instructions will help preserve the color vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Jersey feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. The 'enveloping' fit is designed to be close to the body for aerodynamics; consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit.
Zipper gets stuck
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Lubricating the teeth with a small amount of wax or graphite can sometimes help.
Reduced cooling effect over time
Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Excessive heat during washing or drying can degrade the Freshfeel technology.
Pilling or fabric wear on main body
Avoid excessive friction with abrasive surfaces (e.g., backpacks, rough seat covers). Wash the garment inside out to minimize surface friction during washing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal performance and comfort. The full-length zipper can be adjusted to regulate ventilation.
Compatibility:
This jersey is designed for cycling and is compatible with standard cycling shorts and bibs. The fit is intended to be aerodynamic, so it pairs best with other performance cycling apparel.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the performance and longevity of your jersey, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C or 86°F) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals, as they can degrade the technical fabrics and technologies.
- Drying: Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and reflective elements.
- Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, iron on a very low setting, avoiding any printed or reflective areas.
- Zippers: Close the zipper before washing to prevent snagging.
