Learn the Different Types of Cycling Jerseys

"Proper fit for a baggier jersey is really a lot of it is just personal preference. Obviously you don't want things to be so long that they get caught on things on the side of the trail and stuff like that. But at the same time you don't want things to be tight enough that you can't accomplish the things that you're trying to accomplish by wearing a looser jersey. Like you can see when I put this one on, it's loose enough that if I wanted to wear some padding on my chest or on my arms, I'd have that option. It's not super constricting and it'd be pretty comfortable for going out and riding. For a warmer jersey, this is a really nice wool jersey. I love wool as a fabric for a cyclist because it doesn't smell after a while like acrylic fabrics cans and it's also really good at removing moister. My wool jersey has a similar fit to I had with my more traditional road fit jersey. A little bit looser in the elbows and a much looser hem which makes it work a lot better with a baggy short."
