Product Information

Full details

The Altura Ridge Performance Long Sleeve MTB Jersey is designed for dedicated mountain bikers who prioritize comfort and protection during demanding trail sessions. By combining high-wicking recycled polyester with strategically placed abrasion-resistant ripstop sleeves, this jersey excels at managing sweat on climbs while offering durability on technical descents; however, users should note that the relaxed fit may feel slightly loose if you prefer a slim, aerodynamic profile for racing.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jersey suitable for summer riding?

Yes, the high-wicking double-knit fabric is designed to manage sweat in warm conditions, though it provides more protection than a standard short-sleeve jersey.

Can I wear elbow pads under this jersey?

Yes, the relaxed fit is specifically cut to allow for common mountain bike elbow protection without causing discomfort.

What does the DWR coating do?

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating on the lower back helps shed water and mud, keeping you drier when riding through puddles or wet dirt.

Is the fabric eco-friendly?

The jersey is constructed from recycled polyester, reflecting an effort to reduce environmental impact during production.

Does the sizing run true?

The jersey is built with a relaxed fit. If you are between sizes and prefer a more athletic, snug feeling, you might consider sizing down.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels damp despite the moisture-wicking claim

Ensure you are not wearing a non-breathable cotton base layer underneath; use a technical synthetic base layer to maximize moisture transfer.

Dirt buildup on sleeves after trail rides

While the sleeves are abrasion-resistant, they are not mud-proof; wash after muddy rides to ensure the fabric remains supple and breathable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture management properties
  • Reinforced sleeves provide significant protection against trail obstacles
  • Environmentally conscious use of recycled polyester
  • Relaxed fit is comfortable for all-day riding
  • Water-repellent back panel is effective in damp conditions

Cons

  • Relaxed fit might not appeal to those preferring tighter race-cut jerseys
  • Not intended for extreme cold weather insulation without layering
  • Limited to specific trail-focused colorways

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jersey is designed to be worn over standard base layers or as a standalone top depending on your thermal needs. Due to the relaxed cut, it accommodates most modern mountain bike elbow pads without restricting arm movement.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the fabric's wicking properties.
  2. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can clog the wicking fibers.
  3. Hang dry to maintain the integrity of the DWR coating and synthetic materials.
  4. If the DWR performance fades over time, you can re-treat the lower back panel with a compatible wash-in or spray-on PFC-free DWR restorer.
