Cycling Jerseys Technology for the Cyclist

As with all technical sports clothing maintaining a comfortable constant temperature is the key element required and this means moisture wicking material. This kind of fabric removes the moisture from the body and evaporates out through the outer layer keeping you dry and comfortable. Many people want to opt for natural fabrics like cotton but it does not perform to the same high level that the specialist material does. The problem with cotton is that it absorbs any liquid and becomes wet, heavy and will start to chaff without helping you regulate your body temperature. If it is cost you are worried about then fret not more buying a technical cycling jersey does not need to cost the earth you can get them for less than £40 which is definitely a worthwhile investment.

Cycling Jerseys for Men and Women

There are cycling jerseys that have been specially created for both men and women which are tailored to fit the respective shape of both sexes. The jerseys are tight fitting to allow plenty of movement without the clothing getting in the way of the cyclist but they are in no way restrictive. The cycling jerseys come in a range of colours for both men and women so you can create your own cycling wardrobe.A cycling jersey can be used as a single layer or as a mid layer in the colder winter months, if you are cycling in a cold environment or in the winter months you will need a good warm outer layer. A fleece jersey makes a great outer layer keeping you warm and being lightweight they will not hinder your cycling ability. The Altura Airstream jersey would also be ideal for the winter because it is lightweight but warm and it has reflective strips which are particularly important in the dark winter months.Many of the cycling jerseys available now have reflective strips or patterns on them which are incredibly important if you are cycling at night or during adverse weather conditions. If your jersey does not have reflective strips then you would need to wear a reflective sash to ensure your personal safety.Please take a look at our Cycling Jerseys video below....
