Knit and Lycra combination

The aesthetic impact is different by normal market standards, but it is a sign of distinction of the leaders UYN and is part of the performance of the technical garments themselves. The Racefast bibshort, the Airwing jersey, as well as the underwear Energyon and Aero socks have in common the quality of the fabrics, of the workmanship and that sort of impalpability that translates into excellent comfort.

These are products with a great elasticity, which adapts perfectly to the physical structure and to a body that is constantly moving. This factor is not trivial, because on a bicycle you move constantly and having close-fitting clothing is a great advantage.

The Airwing Jersey

All in one jersey: the phrase that identifies this technical cycling garment. It is aerodynamic, ventilated and optimised in construction, thanks to the differentiated panelling. Each of these has a very specific function, in different areas of the body that respond differently to sweating. The same goes for the texture of the fabric, always adherent, never oppressive and capable of constantly offering that feeling of well-being and comfort. Furthermore the quality of the fabric is also demonstrated by the fact that it never gets wet with sweatIt doesn't get damp even when you're not wearing underwear. It has a long, single zipper and a low-profile crew neck.

The main advantage of this UYN shirt is its enormous capacity to adapt, together with the ability to resist sweat buildup. These are two factors that offer enormous advantages, because The jersey never flaps and, once the climb is over, it doesn't give that cold and damp feeling: it's always dry.

The bibshort makes the difference

We are often led to identify the quality of a bibshort by evaluating the feedback the pad offers us. In the case of the Racefast, it is the shorts as a whole that makes the difference. Here too, as with the jersey, we have an extremely technical garment that changes texture continuously. This allows it to adapt to the body, follow the movement of the muscles, not to move on the thigh and to make full use of the padding.

In the groin area and above the saddle, the fabric is both breathable and capable of offering good grip, promoting stability and thermoregulation. And then there are the shoulder straps, rather rigid and which adapt well to the low position in bicycleThe abdominal area provides proper support and is finished with a hem that enhances the quality of the product, with attention to even the smallest detail.

As for the shirt, too the bibshort is almost impalpable and "you don't feel it on" not even after several hours in the saddle in hot weather. The padding has different thicknesses, between the back, center, sides, and even the front. It's very loose at the sides, but it doesn't curl. It is thicker at the back and invites you to take advantage of the wide area of ​​the saddle. At the front it is light and rises dramatically, containing the delicate parts of the body as best as possible.

Underwear, elastic and fresh

The Energyon underwear shirt It is pleasant to wear even on hot days with the sun beating down on your head. It has a dense plot, with holes on the chest and under the armpits, with arecord-breaking elasticity. It doesn't accumulate sweat, and with the zip down, you can feel the air coming in. As with the garments described previously, the construction quality is excellent, as is that of the fabrics used for its construction.

All items, after intense use, They never have unpleasant odors and offer a sensation of freshness, this is also thanks to the use of the Natex organic fiber.

Thick and always dry socks

The UYN Aero socks are not insignificantly thick, but are designed for hot days.

The Retinaculum area of ​​the foot is constructed with 3D micro-channels, which do not block thermoregulation.

The heel has a sort of shield that also protects the Achilles tendon, while the forefoot has an ergonomic structure, all to the advantage of comfort and the ability to disperse heat.
