SUMMER JERSEYS
Spring is in ally here–time to treat yourself to a new warmweather riding top
1 Mons Royale Redwood Enduro VT Made from ultra-light merino wool, this can be used as an all-year jersey/baselayer thanks to the fabric’s insulating and temperature-regulating properties. It comes in men’s and women’s (here) versions. 80 https://eu.monsroyale.com
2 Troy Lee Designs Skyline Air Ideal for when the mercury rises, this relaxed-fit, tight-knit mesh tech tee allows plenty of airflow to keep you cool when riding hard. £60 www.saddleback.co.uk
3 ION Scrub Amp WMS With its multi-panel construction, which incorporates sections of fast-drying drirelease e.c.o. fabric (made from recycled PET waste), organic cotton and cooling mesh, this durable jersey’s got your back. This is the women’s version but there’s one for guys, too. 94.95 www.ion-products.com

5 DHaRCO Women’s SS It’s great to see brands using recycled fabric, and this jersey is another that meets that standard. It features mesh sides to help breathability, a zipped pocket to stash small items, and a regular cut to make it an every-ride essential. There’s a men’s version, too. £44 www.dharco.com
6 Royal Racing Apex Made from 100 per cent recycled materials, this jersey has an athletic cut to minimise flap, but the ultra-light stretch fabric won’t inhibit movement and lets you fit armour underneath. An antibacterial treatment should keep it fresher for longer. £59.99 www.royalracing.com
7 POC Reform Enduro Another one made from recycled materials, the Reform (available in men’s and women’s cuts) blends environmental responsibility with performance. It’s designed to wick sweat away and keep you cool, plus it’s shaped to fit over body armour. £75 www.pocsports.com
8 Fox Flexair Worn by Fox’s pro riders on the DH and enduro world stage, this top is built for comfort. The stretch material is super-light, the longer back keeps you covered, and abrasion-resistant sleeves and shoulder panels have you covered if you glance off the odd bush or two. There’s a women’s option, too. £50 https://uk.foxracing.com
9 Sweet Protection Hunter Merino Made from nature’s own technical fibre, this merino top helps you stay comfy whatever the conditions, thanks to its breathability, moisture management and insulating properties. Also available in a women’s cut, it’s naturally antibacterial so it’ll stay stink-free for longer. £59.99 www.jungleproducts.co.uk
