Kepler Velo Short Sleeve
$99.99
Whether on an early morning plast or multi-day tour, there's nothing more comfortable than riding in nature's technical fibre.
- Highly breathable and regulates your body temperature
- Corespun blended fabric for improved durability and fit
- Merino wool is naturally odour resistant for multiple wears
Made with a 200 gsm merino blend, this slightly thicker jersey is luxuriously comfortable with a high warmth to weight ratio to keep you warm in cooler temperatures and early morning rides. A half length zip provides easy ventilation if you do start to overheat.
Merino wool is naturally breathable and temperature regulating, keeping you comfortable all day, even in changing conditions. These properties mean the Kepler Velo makes an ideal base to your layering system, as well as a standalone jersey. Natural odour resistance means you can wear your Kepler Velo repeatedly without needing a wide quarantine zone for the smell! Perfect for bike tours when clothes washing is but a distant memory!
We’ve used Core Spun merino for our Kepler Velo jerseys, a technology with all the benefits of merino but with added durability. It’s still merino on the outside but a nylon and spandex core produces a fabric that’s harder wearing and rebounds back into shape better than 100% merino for a better cycling fit.
Kepler Velo features three rear cargo pockets: an overlap opening for your left hand, a security zipped pocket for your right, and an elasticated open pocket in the centre. A snug (but not race) fit is a more relaxed fit for more riding, with a drop tail and gripper hem elastic. Reflective tape woven into the zips helps you to stay visible and safe when you're whizzing past.

Waist - Measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hips - Standing with your feet together, measure around your hips at the widest part.
Sleeve - With your arms relaxed by your side, tilt your head down and ask a friend to measure from the bone at the base of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the fold at your wrist.
