That's why our polyester and polyamide functional fabrics are equipped with Coldblack® technology. This significantly reduces the absorption of sun rays and therefore keeps the garment cool, even when exposed to direct sunlight. Additionally the fabrics feature a UV factor of 50+. Race cut for the perfect fit All cuts are optimized for racing position on a bike. That's why we use only the amount of fabric necessary and consequently avoid friction points. The front parts are shorter than the back parts and shoulder parts are cut wider than the chest line. We oscillated the flatlock side seams and shifted them to the back part for perfect fit and minimized friction points, made seamless collars, cut the raglan sleeves from collar to edge with an oscillated cut to the front part. In other words, we took care of everything. Merino wool for natural functions Our Bike Wear collection is a summer collection, meaning, we only used very light and breathable fabrics. Our very focus is merino wool & polyester mesh fabric. Merino is a self-renewable fabric that comes with natural antibacterial finishing. It even neutralizes odour without any chemical additives, regulates your body temperature and transports humidity to the outside of the fabric. Because the fabric is very light and roughly meshed it does not feature UV protection. We recommend you to put on some sunscreen on all your body parts exposed to the sun before each ride. We have also sent these fabrics to the Hohenstein Institut in Germany in order to conduct the following tests: Water vapour resistance, thermal resistance (thermal insulation) of the moist fabric and drying time and the instationary skin model measurements. Three-layer-fabric for downhill runs Our air vest features an extremely light three-layer laminate (app. 88g/m2) at the front part, shoulder, chest and access slots. It's not only 100% water- and windproof, it also features high breathability. This functional fabric resists a water column of 20.000mm, has a water vapour permeability of Show more
