Ashlu Merino-Kurzarmtrikot, Herren - Dark Chocolate

A wool jersey? Who needs that? Anyone who values a highly innovative product! Because merino can do a lot, especially when it gets really hot. (Yes, even when it's cold, but that's a different topic and we'll deal with that elsewhere). Fine merino fabrics - 89% of the fabric is woven from 17.5 MIcron (1 micron = 1/1,000mm) fine merino fibers - act like an air conditioner when worn next to the skin. They absorb more moisture than synthetic fibers, but dry much faster than cotton. And evaporative cooling occurs during drying - voilà: Heat becomes cool, the classic air conditioning effect.

This jersey also has the very practical Anything pockets. Five pockets, two of which are zipped at the sides and only attached to the top and sides of the jersey. This means that the pockets do not bulge downwards, but are reinforced on the outside.

This makes the jersey perfect for long tours, even multi-day tours. One reason for this is that merino wool has an antibacterial effect: The sweaty merino shirt doesn't smell as quickly and you can get by with less luggage. And you spend less time caring for your clothes, leaving more time for cycling. So who still asks who needs a wool jersey?
