Velocio
Alpha Long Sleeve Jersey
Velocio has completely revamped its outerwear for 2019. They have opted for a dynamic layering system — Alpha System — in place of the one-piece winter jacket of old. At its core is the Alpha Long Sleeve. This thermal mid-layer fits under a shell for protection from the cold and damp of deep winter and keeps things cozy while warming up inside mid-ride or recovering aprés. MSRP $199
Inspired by alpine climbing and ski mountaineering, the Alpha Long Sleeve is designed as a mid-layer piece to extend the range of our jackets. Polartec’s Alpha Direct insulation is placed in strategic areas to maximize warmth without weight. The Alpha creates airspace on all leading panels (sleeves, chest, collar) to trap warm air. This construction allows for exceptional breathability and a quick-dry layer through a wide range of temps and dynamic and highly aerobic riding.
The sides, back, and lower sleeve are made from our Merino 210 – a merino fleece-backed fabric that’s exceptionally soft, thermoregulating, and abrasion-resistant thanks to the polyester face. A half-zip keeps bulk and weight to a minimum, and a slim silhouette allows enough room for a base layer while fitting trim under the Ultralight Rain or Signature Softshell jackets. Three back pockets promise real storage capacity for long base miles.
Velocio entirely redesigned its fall/winter layering for 2019 with the modular Alpha System. The system is built around the Alpha mid-layer, breathable and insulated piece utilizing Polartec Alpha insulation. The Alpha Long Sleeve layers under the new Signature Softshell or Ultralight Rain Jacket to provide riding comfort in any conditions.
