What the AI looks for in Boys' Cycling Jerseys
- Sleeve length
- Long sleeve for BMX, gravity riding and sun protection. Short sleeve for hot trail riding. Long sleeves reduce scrapes and sunburn. Short sleeves keep a child cooler.
- Fit style
- Loose fit for mountain bike riding, especially over elbow pads. Fitted with rear pockets for road riding. The cut has to suit the riding and any pads worn underneath.
- Fabric
- Polyester-based, quick-drying fabric with mesh vents. Kids overheat quickly, and wet fabric chafes.
Brands that matter
- Troy Lee Designs: Stylish youth trail jerseys.
- Fox Racing: Youth Ranger and Flexair-style jerseys.
- Leatt: Junior mountain bike jerseys.
- Pearl Izumi: The place to look for road-style fitted kids' jerseys.
What to avoid
- Cotton shirts sold as cycling tops.
- A tight road jersey worn over elbow pads.
