FAQs

Is this jersey suitable for racing?

Yes, the engineered fit and lightweight materials are optimized for performance and speed during long-distance races.

How do I determine my correct size?

The Traverse Jersey features a close-to-body performance fit. If you prefer a slightly less aggressive fit, consider sizing up.

Can I use this in the rain?

The jersey is designed for breathability and moisture management in warm weather; it does not offer waterproof protection.

What is the purpose of the mesh tunnel pocket?

The mesh tunnel pocket is designed to securely hold larger, lightweight items like a packable gilet, rain jacket, or warmers for easy access while riding.

Does the front chest pocket fit a smartphone?

The front chest pocket is designed for smaller valuables such as keys, cards, or loose change. It is likely too small for modern, large-format smartphones.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Check the zipper track for fabric debris or grit and ensure the cam-lock mechanism is in the 'up' (open) position before sliding.

Pockets sagging when fully loaded

Ensure the hem gripper is sitting flush against your bib shorts and redistribute the weight of your gear more evenly across the three standard rear pockets.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unrivaled storage capacity with six distinct pockets
  • Excellent temperature regulation via mesh side/underarm panels
  • Secure YKK cam-lock zipper remains in place at any position
  • Aerodynamic, performance-oriented fit

Cons

  • Performance fit may feel restrictive for some riders
  • Not suitable for cold weather without additional layering
  • Requires careful consideration of size due to the slim cut

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the technical fabrics, wash this jersey in cool water with a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the wicking properties of the mesh panels. Always zip up the YKK zipper before laundering to prevent snagging. When wearing, ensure the garment is positioned correctly against the skin to allow the moisture-management fibers to function efficiently. This jersey is designed to be worn alone in warm weather, but functions well as a base layer under a jacket for moderate-temperature, long-distance adventures.
