With an all-terrain, "anything goes" mentality, 7mesh diverges from the polyester crowd to evolve the modern drop-bar scene with the Ashlu Merino Jersey. Riding feels classier and more uniquely valuable with the Ashlu's blended merino and nylon fabric comfortably form-fitting to your riding positions. Off-road riding benefits from the merino wool's abrasion-resistance against trailside foliage and hydration-pack straps, and as you roll in and out of shaded creek-side byways to the more open-space gravel landscapes, the merino wool's natural thermo-regulatory properties keep you comfortable ride-long. Supply storage during extended miles receives careful attention from 7mesh as the Ashlu's Anything Panel, a modular pocket system, houses the traditional three-rear pockets plus two side-zippered pockets (one large and one small). It's essentially a modernized waist-pack built into a jersey, but much more streamlined and tailored to reduce sag when the pockets are full of provisions. And to help keep you rolling from dawn-patrol into twilight, the Ashlu is rated UPF 50+ for UV ray protection.
