FAQs
Is this jersey suitable for racing?
While it offers high-performance fabric, it features a semi-fitted design rather than a strictly aerodynamic race fit. It is best suited for training and long endurance rides.
How many pockets does it have?
It includes three open rear stash pockets and one additional small zippered pocket for secure storage.
Can I tumble dry this jersey?
No, tumble drying can damage the bonded hem construction and the reflective detailing. Always air dry your jersey.
Does the reflective detailing stay visible?
Yes, the reflective detailing is color-matched and integrated into the design, standing out specifically when light strikes it.
Does the jersey come with an anti-odor treatment?
Yes, the fabric is treated with anti-odour properties to help the jersey stay fresh over long rides.
Troubleshooting
Jersey feels damp during rides
Ensure you are not wearing a cotton base layer underneath, as cotton absorbs moisture and prevents the jersey from wicking effectively.
Visible wear on seams
Wash the garment in a mesh laundry bag to prevent the bonded edges from snagging on other items like velcro or sharp zippers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Altura Icon jersey utilizes technical synthetic fabrics with anti-odour finishes, proper care is essential to maintain performance. Machine wash the jersey on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the wicking fibers and reduce breathability. To protect the bonded hems and reflective detailing, it is recommended to wash the garment inside out and hang it to dry in the shade; avoid using a tumble dryer. Ensure you consult the brand size guide for your specific region, as the semi-fitted design is intended to offer a balance between athletic performance and all-day comfort.
