Dakine Thrillium jersey


Tech tees, due to their simplicity, tend to sit at the right end of most budgets, but even so, for $45 we don’t usually expect anything that’s more than basic. The Trillium confounds that by delivering a great cut combined with better-thanaverage fabric. It’s got a relaxed, but not baggy, fit and a wide neckline that makes it easier to get on and off than many tops of this type and feels less restrictive on the bike. The taped seam at the back of the neck is a technical detail that’s usually only found on more expensive styles. A Polygiene antibacterial treatment is incorporated into the fabric to help prevent the pong associated with manmade wicking fibres. Given that tech tees can be worn for just about any activity, this is a truly bargainous piece.

Price $45
