Santini Col de Tourmalet Short-Sleeve Jersey - Men's Verde, XL

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wore the Col de Tourmalet Jersey on a long summer climb and the Polartec Power Stretch fabric stayed close without ever feeling restrictive. The fourth zippered pocket is one of those features you don't realize you need until you have it - keys and cards stay secure no matter how hard the effort gets."Some rides are just rides, and some rides carry the weight of history with them. The Santini Col de Tourmalet Short-Sleeve Jersey was designed for the latter - a piece built in tribute to Octave Lapize's legendary 1910 ascent, the first time any rider had ever crested the Tourmalet under race conditions. The green colorway and white band recall the forested mountain environment that surrounds the climb, giving the jersey a visual character as deliberate as its construction. Santini built the Col de Tourmalet Jersey around Polartec(R) Power Stretch(TM) fabric, a high-performance textile that moves with the body, resists losing its shape over long efforts, and breathes consistently when the pace climbs. The slim fit and extended raw-cut sleeves reduce aerodynamic drag without creating constriction, while the low-cut collar and internal elastic waistband keep everything comfortable across hours in the saddle. Three rear pockets handle the usual load of nutrition and layers, and the additional zippered fourth pocket secures items that need to stay put on fast descents. A grey reflective detail on the back ensures visibility when the light fades on longer rides.
