Review for Castelli Men’s Transition Jacket – 2019
Winters are getting warmer, and this jacket means you’ll be ready. It’s our lightest-weight winter jacket, and we’ve replaced the fleece lining found on most of our winter jackets with a lightly brushed jersey that helps wick moisture away. This jacket provides very little insulation, but with the full Gore Windstopper front and sleeve front you’ll be able to layer it to cover most conditions. Not only is it lighter weight for less-cold conditions, it also has a high degree of stretch and freedom of movement, so it feels great on those transition days between fall and winter. Our lightest jacket for fall or light winter riding Gore Windstopper X-Mid front and sleeves for wind protection with exceptional breathability Warmer fleece fabric on back for additional breathability YKK Vision zipper 3 rear pockets Reflective details on back for visibility

This trisuit has the women’s specific Elite LD Chamois which is a multi-layered, fusion welded chamois; it features revolutionaryperforation technology for ventilation plus impressive quick drying capabilities for greater comfort on the bike. This trisuit utilizes 2XU’s powerful 70D Kinetic speed fabric which is a combination of aero and compression technology. The fabric used is the Swiss air turbulent technology which makes for improved aerodynamics and 2XU’s powerful 70D compression fabric for greater endurance and power. Withthe high filament imported nylon fibers, moisture management and abrasion resistance are maximized. This fabric is also engineered with high quality lycra fiber to enhance the trisuit’s shape retention and fit. This is a revolutionary fabric unmatched in speed and compression performance. Also in this trisuit is the Ice-X fabric which uses Xylitol and IR blocking. Xylitol is embedded in the yarn of the fabric to draw heat away from the body and IR blocking inhibits penetration of infrared rays to lower skin temperature by up to 5.4 degrees. The application of Ice-X to polyester/elastic delivers heightened moisture management while high filament yarns and a higher gauge knit are utilized for a lighter, breathable fabric. While this tri singlet does not feature a tri bra it does have a sensor mesh internal support lining so you can unzip the front zipper and cool your body down with no worry. With all these technologies integrated into this singlet, it makes this long distance singlet the perfect balance of speed and comfort.

Review for Castelli Men’s Emergency Rain Jacket – 2019
Ready In Case of EmergencyJust like the name says, we wanted to create the ideal simple jacket. We made it completely waterproof and compact, and, as you’d expect from Castelli, we also gave it an amazing on-bike fit, yet it’s still roomy enough to fit over a Gabba. This jacket is an emergency piece, so we knew you wouldn’t want to break the bank with it, but the only real compromise compared to our top-of-the-line offerings is in breathability. We didn’t make this for an all-day rain ride, but it’s just right for your next emergency. Deluge Light 2.5-layer waterproof fabric keeps rain off with 10,000 mm water column Slight amount of stretch for excellent fit in riding position Folds into half a jersey pocket for emergency situations Innovative “gutters” drain water away from hands and off back Waterproof zipper and seam sealing keep all water out

The compressive materials in this fabric also help an athlete to achieve exceptional breathing and a slower heart rate, Carbon wearers will experience decreased oxygen need of 3 liters per minute, along with reduced respiration rates. Heart rates of Carbon wearers measured four beats per minute slower than athletes in polyester, meaning in a four hour run an athlete will have saved about 1,000 heartbeats!

Review for DeSoto Men’s Forza Tri Suit – 2015
This model has the Patent Pending Integrated Forza-Fino Ceramico 4 mm Pad.The Forza Trisuit has many intricate details of appearance, comfort, and fit that we have spent years in refining, so sit back and enjoy reading all about it as it is all here!New for this year’s model is the 4mm thin, soft, stretchy, buoyant, and most durable pad in the world. That is correct, this garment no longer has that thin fleece pad it had since we first developed it. This pad floats and stretches which means it can be used as a race piece in a triathlon. On the bike, the pad stretches with the short and follows your skin as it moves with every pedal stroke, eliminating the friction that can cause irritation or rashes.The Forza Trisuit has solid black Liftfoil center panels providing even more comfort and durability!Simply put, we added the Liftfoil panels in the center for a number of reasons: To improve the durability. Yes, this fabric is more durable, which is important in an area where rubbing occurs against a saddle and where some people’s thighs rub together. To keep the modesty panel, well, modest. This fabric is not diaphanous at all (meaning not see-through). Something we all appreciate not involuntarily seeing on others. To make this trisuit faster in non-wetsuit races. Liftfoil is our swimskin fabric. The Liftfoil Speed Trisuit is made entirely out of this swimskin fabric. The addition of these panels on the front and back not only makes this trisuit faster, but they eliminate any adverse affects when worn with a wetsuit.Also included is our famous Compressor double legband. Your hamstrings and quadriceps will thank you for the incredible support. The Forza Compressor legs have no binding gripper elastic on the bottom, so they are more comfortable on long rides, yet they stay in place due the 3-inch double-legband.This suit has 5 utility pockets for your racing needs, a 16-inch YKK front zipper, Curvilinear seamlines, and contrast flatstitch. It is made of Forza Compressor legs, Skin Cooler Stretch panels and Carrera Skin torso. Swim, bike, and run in comfort without changing. Race with it under your wetsuit!De Soto’s White Forza Trisuit is not just white. It is made of De Soto’s latest innovative fabric called Shield del Sol. This is a smooth version of Forza Compressor fabric. It is white but unlike other white fabrics, it is not see-through. You cannot see through it at all. Press your finger up against it and you will see what we mean! Due to its opacity, it will offer more sun protection than any other white fabric in the world. Independent UVB testing is currently being done. We intentionally put black panels in the crotch area to avoid saddle stains while creating a more flattering appearance. This item is not designed for repeated use as a swim suit in a chlorinated pool.Disclaimer: swimming in murky water, including ponds, streams, bays, etc. may cause staining.Forza-Fino Ceramico Pad Dimensions: Max Thickness: .157″ (4mm) Min Thickness: .05″ (1.25mm) Total Length: 11.25″ (28.5cm) Front Max Width: 4.5″ (11.5cm) Waist Width – most narrow point: 3.5″ (8.5cm) Back Max Width: 6.5″ (16.5cm)Inseam lengths: Small: 9.5″ (24cm) Medium: 10″ (25.5cm) Large: 10.5″ (26.75cm) XLarge: 11″ (28cm)
Review for Louis Garneau Men’s Neo Power Motion Cycling Bib Short – 2018
With the Neo Power Motion Bib, compression is the key word. But what is the advantage of compression? First, it favors blood circulation in the muscles; good blood circulation during long rides allows better performance and increases resistance to fatigue by up to 10 20 %. Second, it helps prevent muscle vibration which causes additional fatigue and soreness. The shorts of the Neo Power Motion Bib are made with Power + LYCRA fiber and Endurexx fabrics, which both offer great stretchability and compressive properties. In addition, a Powerband at the cuff reduces lower leg pressure and provides support without restricting circulation. The Motion Airgel chamois completes this bib, designed for optimal comfort and efficiency on long rides.FABRICS: POWER + LYCRA FIBER: STRETCH AND COMPRESSION ENDUREXX: STRETCHABILITY, COMPRESSION AND SUPPORT POWER MESH: BREATHABILITY, COMFORT, FLEXIBILITYDETAILS: Ergonomic fit: Pre-shaped to fit and support the body in motion Stretch trim on bib straps: Provides greater ease and comfort 1 back pocket: Fits phone, MP3 player or gels Inseam: 10.5 inch/26.5 cm Seamless inner leg: Reduces bulkiness and excess material that causes saddle bunching Powerband: Compressive cuff that reduces lower leg pressure and provides support without restricting circulation Flatlock seams: Eliminate irritation and reduce chafing Back and bottom reflective accents: Enhance visibility Motion Airgel Chamois Compressive fit
