Details:

• SIZING: XS-XL
• COLORS: Black (BK)
• TECHNOLOGY:
  • RESISTEX™: Composed of a state of the art yarn with an active carbon core. This fabric possesses anti-static properties, which protects against electrical interference and provides numerous benefits including enhanced circulation, lower heart rate, heat dissipation, accelerated evaporation of humidity, and anti-itch characteristics.
  • SPEED: A unique and advanced honeycomb construction provides dynamic thermoregulation. This 40 gauge Nylon/Lycra™ offers great compression with a very lightweight yet opaque knit. We use a bright yarn on this fabric that reflects UV and gives a very sophisticated appearance. Lycra Power™ Certified.
  • Coldblack™: Most dark-colored clothing absorbs 90% of the sun’s heat, but fabrics that have been treated with Schoeller’s Coldblack™ technology during the dying process actually reflect 80% of heat rays while also offering a minimum of UPF 30+ protection against harmful ultraviolet rays. The company keeps the technology a closely guarded secret, but the results speak for themselves: Temperature tests at independent labs found that a Coldblack™-treated jersey held under infrared lamps stayed 10°F cooler on the interior and 22°F cooler on the surface than a regular jersey.
  • STEALTH TRI CHAMOIS: Our tri chamois is a one-piece contour molded pad that is the fastest-drying pad on the market. It’s the perfect size for the triathlete who needs to be able to wear this in comfort during a swim, bike and run. Open cell phone does not absorb moisture and the polyester surface is fast-drying and anti-microbial.

Descente Women’s Seamless Pro-V Sleeveless Baselayer

The Descente Pro-V Mesh Sleeveless Baselayer is made with the most hydrophobic yarn ever created--Merkalon™ advanced polypropylene. The mesh construction allows a steady flow of air to reach the skin for optimal cooling and moisture transfer. The Pro-V Mesh is meant primarily for warm weather riding, but it can be used in a wide range of temperature conditions from summer to winter--any time you expect to sweat. Any riders not currently using a base layer with up to date technology are missing out on a guaranteed way to move moisture away from your skin and increase riding comfort.

Features:

• Pro Tour inspired for performance
• Built-in seamless shelf bra
• Contour fit, body-hugging and extra-long in the body
• Versatile in hot and cold temperatures

This structure also facilitates evaporation.
