Royal Racing

Slice Jersey - Long-Sleeve - Men's

While some companies crank out gravity-riding cycling apparel by just making them baggy and slapping on garish graphics, or others just modify motocross gear, Royal Racing, based in Denver, CO, starts from the ground-up with every piece it makes. The Royal Racing Slice Long-Sleeve Jersey, for example, was designed from the beginning with downhill and freeride in mind, and the details show as much.

The Slice is made from Royal's proprietary General Issue Plus polyester fabric, designed to dry quickly, breathe well, and be tough if you happen to take a spill. The inner lining of the neck gets the company's Heat Transfer treatment to keep you cool, and to keep you even cooler, the tagless label is certainly appreciated. The Slice's graphics are screen-printed, and the cut of the jersey comfortable accommodates the aggressive riding position that Royal hopes you'll be assuming once rolling. Still, the jersey's casual styling isn't loud and obnoxious, and the fit is very comfortable, making it a fine piece for kickin' it post-session.

The Royal Racing Slice Long-Sleeve Jersey comes in five sizes, from Small to XX-Large, and in the colors Kelly Green/black or Black/red.
