Solo CC Short Sleeve Jersey Review

Solo has designed their CC Short Sleeve Jersey to be the jack-of-all-trades top for anything from casual training rides to punchy races. The jersey has a regular fit and thus accommodates a wide range of body shapes and allows you to ride a range of positions.

Constructed from BREATHE™ fabric is pretty easy to assume what this jersey offers. Breathability and ventilation is literally the name of the game with the material being perfectly suited for long summer rides and sweltering climbs. Perspiration is actively transported away from the surface of your skin, prompting it to evaporate from the outer layers of the jersey. When combined with Solo’s Short Sleeve Baselayer, you have a dynamic duo that will get you through the whole year’s riding.

On top of this, the CC Jersey is loaded with all of the other features you’d expect from a top quality jersey, but with extra benefits. The three rear pockets alongside the zippered valuables pockets give you more than enough room to stock up on all of the necessary items with an extra bit of space to keep your car keys and credit card safe. The bottom of the pockets has a reflective seam and all of this is held in place by a neat hem gripper.

With the CC Jersey as with the rest of Solo's range, the beauty and craftsmanship is in the details. Soft arm hems and stylish Solo logos on the hem make it feel like you are wearing a custom-made top. The striking front and rear Solo logos make sure this jersey will get you noticed for all of the right reasons.

Taken as a complete jersey the CC Short Sleeve Jersey provides a beautiful and exceptional break from the norm. With all of the comfort and performance features that Solo have been able to cram into this jersey you’ll be hard put to find a better value top under £100.
