Troubleshooting
Jersey feels tight in the shoulders when standing upright
This garment is ergonomically cut for the cycling position; try it while in a riding crouch to confirm the fit.
Fabric feels damp after long rides
Ensure you are using a moisture-wicking base layer underneath and avoid using fabric softeners during laundry, which can reduce breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jersey, always follow the care label instructions. Machine wash the garment on a cool cycle, ideally using a technical fabric detergent to avoid clogging the fleece fibers. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking and breathability of the Polartec material. Always air dry the jersey flat or on a hanger to prevent heat damage from tumble dryers. For the best performance, pair this jersey with a thin, sweat-wicking base layer to maximize the thermal benefits of the fleece.
