Santic Cycling Jersey Men's Long Sleeve Bike Reflective Full Zip Bicycle Shirts with Pockets

Some background on me: I use a lot of cycling products and am really passionate about the sport and culture of cycling. You can see evidence on Instagram @de.Luna.shoots (Sean de Luna). I ride about 7,000 miles a year. Track everything on Strava, and even Everested. I've used Rapha, Assos, Black Sheep, DHB, Castelli, and a host of other Chinese brands for testing... When I first ordered this product, I was a bit cautious. My past experiences with products at this price point has often been one related to durability and fit. Basically, they usually aren't constructed well or they fit poorly (I like my kits race-fit and performance oriented). This product is a welcome surprise. At this price point, I don't think there is a long sleeve jersey out there that can compete against this one. The seams are well stitched, there is a durable zipper, there are multiple types of fabrics used to maximize fit and performance, the band stays in place, there's even nice reflective details. The fit is nice and snug without being too tight (at least for me, and I do acknowledge that not everyone likes the race-cut that I do). The jersey is perfect for early fall and late spring rides. I wore it on a ride that was 35F / 2C and needed a wool base layer and a wind vest. However, in less extreme conditions I can see myself using it with a lighter base layer. I love the pink accents and the different elastic waist and wrist cuffs. The jersey is definitely worth every penny and I'd say that I got a lot more than I invested $$$ based on the quality and performance of the product thus far. My only suggestion and wish is that the product had a rear zipper (however, the front, full zipper is really durable and smooth). But I guess at this price-point, a rear waterproof zip feature may hoping for too much. This product is a real bargain. Well done Santic.

I am a size L t-shirt and i purchased a US XL because cycling clothing in general runs smaller and I followed the included sizing chart according to my height and weight, 5'11" 200lbs = XL. This ended up being way way too large. When on the bike the neck droops down and sways and bobs as I move. It probably needed 3 or 4 inches removed from the neck. The length is also a bit much, it goes past my hips and the chest bunches up when you are cycling. That said, it did seem of very high quality, the zippers were very nice. The opening on the rear pocket was too small to easily access but the single pocket itself was a good size. It would have been better if it were three separate pockets like most jerseys.

This is a great deal on a long sleeve jersey. However, if you are used to EU or US sizing on bike gear order a size down. I'm 6'1 and 180lbs and wear a large in most jerseys, a medium fits me just fine. I think these are made in Asia and they re-mark the sizes for the US market.Fit is nice, material is thin and cool with nice breathability in the pits. Great for fall/winter/spring in CA and cool mornings, not a cold weather jersey. Construction is solid including some nice touches like a special phone pocket in the middle back that seems like its meant to protect it from sweat, reflectors, zippers, etc. It looks like a much pricier jersey, the only downside is you then have to tell the Drs and lawyers on the group ride that you really got it on Amazon. Thanks Jeff.

I was a bit skeptical, even after reading many positive reviews, but now that I've increased the number of early morning (chilly) rides, I needed a new long sleeve jersey. Normally, I would go to a couple of local bike shops and pick up one of the better known brands, but due to COVID, I decided to take a chance on Amazon and found this jersey. I can honestly say that this performs as well or better in terms of warmth, moisture management, fit and quality of fabric, stitching and zipper as jerseys costing 3-5 times as much. In addition, the reflective material is actually reflective - not the case on some others who claim reflectivity. Everyone is different in terms of heat/cold tolerance, but with this jersey (without base layer), I'm good from about 50 degrees up to about 80 degrees. Bottom line I decided to order the same in another color and the result was excellent. I'm 5'8" with a 40" chest and 32" waist, weighing 155 and US size M fits perfectly (form fitting but not race tight).

I've been racing road, MTB and Tris for decades and have a lot of experience with cycling clothing - what works and what doesn't. This long sleeve "winter fleece" jersey seems well made and looks great. I really liked the color. The problems are the material is supposed to be fleece and suitable for winter use. The material is very thin - thinner than some of my summer short sleeve team jerseys. I suppose you could call the insides "fleece", but it would be a stretch. It's little more than very lightly brushed. The other problem is the rear pocket is one wide zippered pocket. There's a reason proper cycling jerseys have three pockets - it keeps things from shifting from one side to the other. The pocket on this jersey is not suitable for any sort of cycling. It's also zippered. Why? So that it is nearly impossible to get anything out or in the pocket while riding? Lastly, though very subjective, I do not wear yoga-like clothing with thumb holes in the sleeves - nor does any self-respecting serious cyclist I know, and I know a LOT of cyclists. Maybe a bit judgemental, but sorry, that's the way it is in cycling circles.In summary, this is not a winter jersey and the pocket is not suitable for any sort of active cycling. If you like thumb holes in your long sleeve jerseys and plan on primarily stuffing large jackets or other clothing in the single rear pocket, and "winter" to you is >55F, then this might be the jersey for you. Otherwise, I recommend looking elsewhere.

Nice jersey true fit, reasonable price.
