Alternative Jersey
Ultralight jersey with an aerodynamic fit designed for high-tempo rides on hot summer days.
Combination of three mesh materials provides high breathability, reliable moisture wicking and a second-skin feel. Flat seams and a glued collar on the front panel increase overall comfort, and a wide silicone tape keeps the jersey in place. Aerodynamic cut and high level of compression underline the pursuit of the highest possible performance from recycled materials. Snacks and small valuables fit in the three rear pockets and an extra zippered pocket, and their contents can be conveniently taken out while riding.
Though our jerseys offer protection from UV rays, we always advise you to wear sun screen protection underneath them.

Beautiful quality jersey
My first jersey from Isadore. I really like the design. I'll get more from this collection. :) Based on models from product pics I should have went for XS, but an M size is ideal for me (182cm with 65kg) with an undershirt. I like that the short sleeves are actually longer than most other brands. The material feels good. The pockets are quite tiny, so you can't fit much in, but at least they don't pull out by multiple use. The small zip pocket eg. for keys or ID card is useful.Show full review -

Great Fit and Quality
This fits very well and seems to be of great quality. I will likely buy this again as it’s especially great for the hotter climbing days here in California. The only reason why It’s not 5 stars is the top of the zipper. I wish there would be a little piece of fabric that goes over the top as other isadore jerseys have as it sometimes peaks a bit / is uncomfortable.Show full review -

The Best
Jersey is very well made. The fit is perfect for someone who is looking for more race-fit clothing. Sleeves are very comfortable and mesh on the sides gives you additional ventilation. The silicon strip at the end of the jersey keeps the jersey from sliding up.Show full review -

Perfect
I had this delivered to me under the new subscription. I didn't own an outright summer race Jersey so took the plunge. I had medium at 5ft 10 and 80kg as this is my usual Isadore size. It hugged me tightly and I was slightly concerned I was between a medium and large. It's first ride was a gravel ride in 15 degrees heat. I had a thin base layer on. In my relaxed riding position the Jersey seemed to mould to my body exceptionally well. It no longer felt tight and medium was the right choice. It kept me warmer than it should have done and only when it went in to single figures was an extra layer was needed. The main plus points were the rear pockets. They were large and appeared lower than normal so were very easy to access. The larger zip was also a winner and never once got caught in the fabric. A truely 10/10 Jersey.Show full review -

Fantastic jersey, (very) slightly letdown by shallow pockets.
Who knew it would be possible to create such a magnificent jersey from recyclable materials? Well, not me. It feels and fits for me like the club jerseys I used to wear when I was younger. I'm 177cm in height and weigh 86 kg's with around 22% bodyfat, (Blame Corona ;D) so I'm not the stereotype skinny cyclist. Size Large fits me well. If you like a slightly more relaxed fit, go for the Extra Large. Design is great, something really different, but nothing too flashy. Great reflective details (so important!) and a high quality finish all around. My favorite thing might be the zipper on this jersey. Too many times I've owned quality jerseys with terrible, small teeth, metal zippers. Not with this Alternative jersey. Bigger plastic teeth and smooth action. It might seem like a small thing, but think about it the next time you are ready to go out, only to zip up at the last moment and have cloth stuck in between the zipper. The last thing I want to mention are the pockets. Unfortunately, these are quite shallow and none of them have a zipper. I always go out with a hex and torx key, my phone and a house key. I haven't lost anything during riding and I don't anticipate it happening, but my phone (Samsung Galaxy S7) is already a little too big for the back pockets. In my opinion a jersey in this price range should have pockets that are a bit deeper or have a small zipper pocket like some of your other jerseys.Show full review -

Light, comfortable, ecological
I am 174cm, 65kg, chest 94cm and size M (as per size table, though it is different from the one applicable to long-sleeved winter version of this Alternative jersey) is spot on. The fit is pretty aero but no pinching anywhere (including sleeves). The jersey weighs next to nothing (below 110g) and breathes great. Looking forward to popularizing our brand on the road.Show full review -

Great summer jersey
For all those really hot rides out there. Perfect jersey, can fit everything necessary in the pockets without any problems. Size M fits great (I am 180cm tall and 74kg weight). No issues riding in it even in lower temperatures (around 20 degrees), just use a merino first layer under it and it works perfect. As there is no merino in this jersey, it's really easy to take care for it, as you need just basic tech-wash to clean it in after every ride.Show full review
