Features:
Short Sleeve Jersey... The breathability of SQ pro fabric is far superior to anything on the market. The small block micro-mesh construction creates a unique look and feel that enables air to easily pass through the fabric, keeping you dry and cool. Another feature exclusive to SQ Pro is the addition of Mynx UV. Bonded chemically with the yarns, this treatment greatly increases the UV-reflective properties of the fabric. The UV rating is 50+ SPF.
Options... men's or women's cut, club or race fit, sleeves or sleeveless, hidden or full zipper (add $2 for full zipper).
Layman's translation: Racer style is for very trim people. Club style is for regular people.
Shorts... 8 panel anatomic cut with elastic waist sublimated side panels and Voler leg gripper. The body (black) is ProForma and sides are Corsa Super Opaque. ProForma is a matte finished 8 oz Nylon Spandex, created to be durable, form fitting and extremely comfortable. Corsa Super Opaque, 8oz Poly/Lycra, is a micro denier knit that is completely non-see through and adds compression to help reduce muscle fatigue.
Options... men's or women's cut, choice of chamois, bib style, knicker length, tri-short.
Layman's translation: Tri shorts are shorter than the other shorts, and have a thinner pad that dries quickly after you get done with the swim leg.
Wind Vest... High collar, Vortex Ripstop front, Aria Micro Mesh back and side panels, dual directional zipper. Vortex Ripstop is a very lightweight, wind-proof and water-resistant fabric created by weaving ultrathin yarns in a Ripstop design. This design also enhances the overall durability of the fabric. Used in the front, collar, and rear yoke panel. Aria Micro Mesh is a light, smooth finished micro denier mesh. The open construction of the mesh is designed to increase air flow, but is still opaque enough to be worn by itself. Used in the side panel and back.
Wind Jacket... See Wind Vest, add arms.
Long Sleeve Jersey... High collar. The Thermasensor Ultra fabric is the ultmiate in cool-weather comfort. The newly designed micro yarns are extremely soft and are knitted tightly to improve thermal properties.
Thermal Jacket... Isowind from Switzerland is the most advanced laminated thermal fabric in the world. The three layer construction provides superior warmth, water-resistance and is wind-proof. Front, collar, sleeve body and back. Thermasensor Ultra is the ultmiate in cool-weather comfort. The newly designed micro yarns are extremely soft and are knitted tightly to improve thermal properites. Side panel, under sleeve panel and pocket.
Arm Warmers... Thermique: 11oz Heavy weight Poly/Lycra. Brushed back to improve thermal properties and to add a smooth comfortable feel.
