Offering a better level of protection from the elements and more insulation than your typical short-sleeve jersey comes the C7 Gore Windstopper Jersey from Gore Wear. Your reward is a breathable, water-repellent jersey that will keep you warmer and drier while riding in variable conditions. By utilizing Gore's Windstopper fabrics, this jersey won't trap excessive body heat and perspiration vapor thanks to its exceptional material technology. Thankfully it doesn't lose its flexibility and it retains a good level of stretch built into the fabric along with a slim cut that's akin to the typical summer jersey, and mesh inserts under the arms further improve ventilation when the temps or the pace pick up. Up top, a close-fitting collar keeps the chill out on those endless headwind stretches and when it finally turns to your back, you can sit up and grab a gel from one of its three rear pockets. Lastly, a wide elastic flat hem dials in the fit and keeps it in place over the course of the ride.
