The central component of any cyclist's wardrobe, cycling jersey's come in a variety of styles, colours and materials. Short sleeve jerseys often come with rear storage pockets, along with short/long zips for extra ventilation when the going gets tough, and long sleeve jerseys offer extra protection and warmth in the winter months against the harsher elements. When buying a cycling jersey one has to consider many important points, such as design, technical features, and also how they suit the given season and weather conditions.
