The first sleeveless cycling jersey was introduced in the 1980s, shortly after the arrival of laminated "shell" fabrics. From the beginning it was designed specifically for professional runners as the maximum expression of versatility and essentiality; a true 'emergency friend' capable of ensuring a whole series of protection factors with a very small volume. Over time, the vest has been able to differentiate itself into two very distinct categories: the waterproof/windproof model and the thermal model, used as protection from the cold.
The Q36.5 vest eliminates the distinction between the two categories with this 137g item suitable for all four seasons . It is made with UF Hybrid Shell fabric, a brushed/plush material which, constructed without a membrane (which would give windproof or water-repellent characteristics), is woven on the external side at such an incredibly high density as to create a degree of wind resistance comparable to fabric traditional soft shell, while maintaining high breathability . The most sensitive runners will immediately be able to see the advantages of this vest firsthand during longer descents, as the sweat-soaked shirt will be able to expel moisture through the vest and dry, a completely new sensation for those accustomed cyclists. to wear other vests available on the market. This material is also subjected to a treatment before weaving for water repellency and fast drying times, instead of the classic finish on the finished fabric. This choice allows the yarns to retain their natural characteristics. This product was designed according to the same fit principle as the L1 short sleeve shirt and constructed according to the same advanced tailoring techniques . No back pocket, but two invisible cuts to give access to the back pockets of the shirt or jacket under the vest. Full 3mm Cam Lock reflex zips.
