The choice of the cognoscenti, this performance-focused cycling jersey is ready for serious riding. Cut in our slimline Racing Fit, wearers of the SS.Équipe Jersey_evo8 look and feel like they mean business from the moment it goes on. Indeed, every consideration has gone into making this summer riding jersey feel right on the tarmac - note the subtle v-neck, a cut that means obstruction to the throat is reduced in the racing position. The bonded zip, sleeves and waist all contribute reductions in drag, and each fabric choice is informed by the need to keep weight to a minimum.

A premium performance jersey must ensure comfort isn’t neglected and to that end our new 3D knit miniCheck Tex fabric offers rapid drying and increased airflow: this is equipment ready for however hard you want to push. And while the SS.Équipe Jersey_evo8 is made for riding on the drops not posing in coffee shops, there’s no denying the swagger of the asymmetrical design with its monogrammed ASSOS sleeve.

A worthy sibling to our revered T.Équipe_s7 bib shorts, it’s really little wonder our own test team elect to use the SS.Équipe Jersey_evo8 day in, day out.
