What
types of activities do you think this garment would be good for? Cycling, running,
warm up
Comments on fit & style: I am very pleased with both the fit and style
of the Jazz jersey. I ordered the yellow black version and it is an eye catcher.
I use it for running and cycling on cooler days, and also as a warm up layer
that I will shed before a race or a tough workout when I will work up a sweat.
I like the three pocket cycling jersey style, with the extra pocket for an
MP3 player. The large jersey fit me well at 5’9” and 165 lbs. I
wear medium size for casual clothing, but I found in athletic clothing, I should
order large. My only comment, which is more of an observation, is that the
zipper pull is on the left side of the jersey when you are wearing it. All
of my zippered clothing the pull is on the right side. I thought that it might
be a styling difference from the US and abroad.
Comments on fabric: The fabric for this jersey is the appropriate weight for cool runs and rides. The material is dense enough to provide some resistance to wind cutting through it. The elastic on the cuffs is snug enough to keep the sleeves from riding up, but not constricting in any way. Similarly, the elastic around the waist keeps the jersey from riding up on you while you are running or cycling. Finally, the zipper backing looks very sharp with the Jaggad logo when the jersey is unzipped, and it performs well at its true function of blocking wind from penetrating the jersey through the zipper.
Summary: The Jazz Jersey is a very stylish and functional garment that fits well and looks great. It has all the features one looks for in a cool weather long sleeve cycling jersey…eye catching look, great fit, and a zipper backing that keeps the wind out. I found it to work well as a running layer too on colder days. It kept enough heat in to keep me from getting cold, but breathed enough to keep me from overheating, and the pockets came in handy for stashing some nutrition. In the short months that I have owned this jersey, it has become one of my favorites for its versatility and its good looks. It is a great choice for spring cycling and winter/early spring running.

This is my choice jersey for my coldest rides, as it is the thickest and sturdiest
cycling top that I have. If it is cold enough to wear full-fingered gloves,
the Jazz Jersey would be a good top to wear. The ¾ Multi Pant with
the white stripe down the side is my favorite bottom to wear with the jersey—a
very complementary and sharp looking pair . Also, in temperatures below freezing,
the Axis top works great underneath the Jazz Jersey. I bought the Jazz for
those grey, chilly weekend mornings—including days when there’s
a chance of rain. During the winter when the days are shorter, I can only
ride on weekends. I can’t choose the weather on a Saturday, but I can
certainly choose what cycling gear I’m going to wear to beat it!
This is honestly the best, most durable garment I have in my cycling wardrobe. I have ridden in this jersey for many winters and the jersey just keeps on going. It is warm and keeps out the wind on those cold winter mornings. When the weather warms up you don’t sweat and feel uncomfortable. For winder, all you need is a simply base layer under it and you off and pedaling. I guarantee you will get years of use out of one.
Comments on fit & style: The jersey is a nice streamlined
fit. The length of the body and the arms is spot on.
Comments on fabric: The fabric is what you expect for a garment
for twice the price. Warm on windy cold days and cool when the sun comes
out.
Summary: In cycling it is difficult to strongly recommend garments there is a lot of personal choice. The Jazz jersey is definitely a must for your wardrobe. I guarantee you will get years of use out of one.

Mens Jazz JerseyMy Jaggad Jazz Jerseys are one of my favourite and most used cycling tops
in the cooler months. I have had some of my Jazz Jerseys for many years now
and have worn them for literally hundred of rides and they still look and fit
like new. Jazz Jerseys look good and are really comfortable but most importantly
they seem to be the perfect warmth in the cooler months of spring, winter and
autumn in Sydney. The DualTech fabric is really light weight but provides a
high level of wind blockage and thermal insulation that keeps you warm without
overheating.
I always wear a Undercover Tank under my Jazz Jerseys but when it gets really
cold I will also wear some spring arm warmers and a summer jersey under the
Jazz Jersey. If its raining or drizzling I will then put a Quest Vest or Invest
Jacket on too.
The 'chuncky' zippers work really well and are tough and 3 back pockets are
spot on too. The Jazz Jersey is a 'must have' garment in my cycling kit.

Mens Jazz JerseyThe Jazz Jersey is an awesome spring/fall cycling top, longsleve to keep you
warm, (not a winter jersey here in the South of NZ haha) I wear my top mostly
to and from the pool & out casually as it is such a nice fitting top I
am reluctant to get it dirty on the bike.
Summary: The Jazz Jersey is a fantastic, light weight and stylish longsleve
cycling top and is my favourite top to wear casually or out on the bike in
a coolish morining ride. The top breaths and moves very well so you dont feel
restricted in anyway and I would highly recommend this to anyone want to be
comfortable & look great on the bike.
