The athletic fit Alps 8.0 v2 Jersey is constructed from an advanced poly-fabric with a cellulose fibre (manila hemp and bio-degradable poly-fabric) treatment engineered for the optimal blend of light weight, moisture-wicking and performance. Equipped with Jacquard underarm inserts for maximum ventilation, this jersey is cut longer in the rear for greater coverage in the riding position.
- Cellulose fibre construction: Cellulose fibre is as light as plume, but has only two thirds of cotton’s weight, while being durable (as tough as linen).
- Cellulose fibre produces no fluff or cotton dust, making it the perfect option for riders who suffer with allergies or sensitive skin.
- Cellulose fibre delivers exceptional moisture wicking properties allowing it to absorb excess moisture from the skin quickly, perfect for the rigours of All Mountain riding.
- High breathability: The hollow fibre structure of cellulose fibre adjusts to moisture and temperature, keeping rider’s cooler for longer.
- High protection against UV: The structure of manila hemp and the weaving method used combine to effectively protect against 97 per cent of UV rays.
- Cellulose fibre is environmentally friendly and biodegradable. With an initial growth period of 12-25 months, it can be harvested every three to eight months.
- Constructed from an advanced mixed poly-textile for improved durability.
- Fabric features a quick-drying treatment for comfort and improved anti-bacterial performance.
- Main shell incorporates four-way stretch fibres for excellent levels of flex, comfort and fit.
- Ergonomic collar design for enhanced rider comfort.
- Mesh panel inserts on the underarms for high levels of inner ventilation.
