Female specific designs have come a long way in the last few years with most manufacturers now catering for the female form in their range.<\/p>\n<p>Whichever style you choose just remember to get in the tuck position when trying on as this is how the jersey will feel when riding and can be vastly different from standing up straight.<\/p>\n<h2>Fabrics<\/h2>\n<p>Modern materials offer a huge range of benefits. Breathability, ventilation, waterproof, windproof, UV protection, compression and aero properties can all be achieved in many different variations.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-11893 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.merlincycles.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/P1030804-768x513.jpg\" alt=\"P1030804\" width=\"768\" height=\"513\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.merlincycles.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/P1030804-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.merlincycles.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/P1030804-1024x684.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 768px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 768\/513;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Summer jerseys tend to be lightweight, breathable, well ventilated and offer UV protection. Apart from the front zip, mesh panels offer great ventilation and when placed in key areas do an amazing job of letting cool air in.<\/p>\n<p>The latest developments in fabrics and design means companies like Castelli are now offering the legendary Gabba jersey which combines water, windproof and thermal properties in an aero short sleeve jersey.<\/p>\n<h2>Construction<\/h2>\n<p>Strategic placement of different materials can have a massive effect on comfort and fit.
