Specialized Dolci jersey - looks good with jeans too!

We instantly liked this plain black jersey with its bright white stripe running down the front and rear as well as it's cosy fleece lining. Specialized have designed the Dolci jersey to fit snugly and look flattering too, we've even been known to wear it with jeans too.

The inside has, as we already mentioned a brushed fleecy polyester finish, great for cooler days as well as post race wear when you need to be cosy and comfortable. It's pretty efficient at wicking moisture away from the skin and drying quickly too, so you can worry about riding harder whilst your temperature stays regulated.

The rear has three rear pockets, 2 mid-sized pockets and a third smaller one, for stowing all your essentials. The collar is high fitting with double thickness fabric to keep out wind and the cold, on warmer days simply unzip the zipper for ventilation.

With a close fitting design the jersey could use a few more panels for a perfect fit, that said the longer rear and shorted front was well designed for on the bike use. The sleeves were a good length and not too baggy either, the cuffs were close fitting to prevent unwelcome draughts.

For the money we thought the Dolci jersey was good value and given that it is well constructed it survived plenty of use and regular washing without obvious signs of wear.
