Key Features and Variants
Thermal vs Lightweight Options
-
Thermal long sleeve cycling jerseys → Brushed fleece interiors trap heat effectively, perfect for colder rides (5-10°C) when layered with a base layer or vest.
-
Lightweight versions → Summer-weight polyester construction offers wind resistance and sun protection in milder conditions (10-18°C), avoiding overheating on effort.
Every jersey incorporates moisture-wicking fabrics, quick-drying properties, and three deep rear pockets for nutrition, tools, and essentials.
Fit and Design Details
Options include:
-
Race fit → Body-hugging for reduced drag and a sleek pro aesthetic.
-
Endurance fit → Slightly relaxed for all-day comfort on long rides, gravel, or commuting.
Extended sleeve lengths cover wrists in aggressive positions, silicone grippers secure the hem, and the longer rear panel ensures coverage even with loaded pockets.
Sizing Guide: Perfect Fit for Every Rider
Inclusive sizing from XS to 6XL makes our long sleeve cycling jerseys ideal for taller, bigger, and plus-size cyclists. Jerseys follow a performance cut – close-fitting but non-restrictive. Refer to our detailed size charts for chest, waist, and height measurements.
Quick Fit Tips:
- Prefer aero sharpness? Size down and pair with a thin base layer.
- Need room for thicker layers or relaxed comfort? Size up.
This range minimizes sizing frustration and delivers confidence for every body type.
Care Instructions for Long-Lasting Performance
Extend the life of your jersey with simple maintenance:
- Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors.
- Skip fabric softeners to maintain wicking efficiency.
- Air dry or tumble on low heat.
- Wash inside out to preserve vibrant prints and fabrics.
Proper care keeps fleece soft, colors bright, and technical features strong through countless rides.
Explore Popular Designs and Best Use Cases
Our long sleeve cycling jerseys come in a huge variety of styles to suit every rider's personality and riding needs. With over 70 unique designs, you'll find everything from understated classics to bold statements:
-
Solid colors (black, navy blue, white, grey, burgundy) – perfect for a clean, professional look on group rides or races where you want to blend in with the peloton.
-
Bright and high-visibility options (red, yellow, orange, green) – ideal for commuting, early morning training, or low-light conditions to stay seen by traffic.
-
Patterned designs (geometric triangles, arrows, gradients, camo, dots, flex lines, hibiscus flowers) – great for riders who want to stand out, add personality to gravel adventures, or match team kits.
Thermal variants shine in full winter training (below 10°C), base miles, or cold-weather centuries – pair them with arm warmers, a gilet, or jacket for versatile layering.
Lightweight models are best for transitional seasons like autumn and early spring (10-18°C), shoulder-season road rides, milder MTB sessions, or sunny but breezy days when short sleeves feel too exposed.
Many riders use these jerseys for daily commuting, indoor training with fans, or as a mid-layer under heavier outerwear. The combination of pro-level aerodynamics, reliable warmth, and eye-catching style makes them suitable for road cycling, gravel grinding, cyclocross, and even casual spins.
