Gore Wear short-sleeve jerseys for men are the tops for summer. In warm weather, you wear them on their own, and in the transitional season you add arm warmers and a gilet.

What a summer jersey has to deliver

In summer, it is above all about cooling. The material should wick sweat to the outside quickly and dry fast so that the jersey does not stick in the heat. A full-length zip lets you open it completely on the climb. Three back pockets hold bars, your phone and a pump.

Light colours heat up less in the sun than dark ones. They are also more visible on the road. If you often ride for a long time in summer, also pay attention to UV protection, if the manufacturer states it.

Tip: Do not leave the jersey in your backpack after the ride. Damp technical fabrics quickly start to smell if they cannot dry.
