Cycling jerseys are made of many different materials, designs and colours, but they all do the same thing. For professionals its some where to put the name of there teams sponsor, club riders have the name of there team and the rest of us either want to look like our heroes or just like to wear our favourite colour.
The History Of The Cycling Jersey
Cycling jerseys were originally made of wool and had pockets on the front of the chest. The problem with these was as they got old or wet they stretched and stretched until they were more like a dress and the pockets wouldn't hold anything.
Wool is nice and warm in cold conditions, but try climbing an Alpine mountain in wool, it's hot.
By this time riders had started to put names of there sponsors on the front of there jerseys, but this was the maker of there bicycle, it wasn't till much later that sponsors from outside the cycle industry started to
appear on cyclists clothing.
After the wool jersey came man-made polyester, this changed cycle jerseys, you could print any design for the team or club sponsors logo and they are more comfortable in any
temperatures.
The pockets were moved to the lower back, which is easier to take food out of and now zips were introduced at the front, first short ones then the full length version for the heat.
At this time also thermodress was invented for cold weather, it is a thicker man-made material, which is also wind-proof and is also shower-proof, up to a point.
The day of the baggy, ill-fitting, dull and drab cycling jersey is over.
If you want to look like one of the stars you can buy the exact same cycle jersey that they use, either from your local cycle shop or on-line from a web shop, also if you go to your favourite riders team web site you can buy it direct from the team its self, then you know you are getting the real thing.
On the team web sites you can also buy the team casual clothing and be the envy of all your friends.
Team polo shirt, fleece jerseys, baseball hats and casual tracksuits as well as the race gear is available from the teams.
