Endura

Best feature: there is a side-back pocket appropriate for a water bottle (or other cylindrical beverage device). Elsewhere right combination of reach-in and secure pockets and the belt is a nice supplement. Material is typical Endura quality- these should last many, many rides. Medium-duty chamois is appropriate for a multi-hour ride. I'd say these are best used for casual trail or DH days- they don't fall into the 'fast, light and tight' category.

I like this sleeveless base layer better than the size small technical T-shirts I've been using (because I can find them super cheap). This one came at a discounted price. It keeps me comfortable in conditions where only wearing a jersey would be too chilly, yet it does not overheat due to the fishnet. The moisture management is just what you would expect from a base layer.

The only problem, in my opinion is that the fishnet is about as robust as a thin slice of swiss cheese. I tried this on immediately upon receiving it in the mail and thought to myself, "this will be perfect on early morning rides in the low 60's". Upon removing the thing I pulled the lower part up toward my chest and reached behind my head between my shoulder blades to pull it off . . . rrriiippp! . . . a hole about the size of a tennis ball right where my fingers gripped. Bummer! I'll keep wearing it until the hole is ridiculously large, but c'mon man. There should be some more robust material right there in the upper center of the back so this does not happen so easily.

The fabric/material seems high quality, and I haven't had an issue with it.

I wear this jersey (alone, no under layer) for early morning rides up the nearby canyons. When the temperature is around 50 F, plus or minus a few, I'm totally fine, even going down the canyons on the way back home, but I haven't tried it on anything colder yet. When it's in the upper 40's, I'll be a little bit cold at the start of a ride, until I get warmed up. I usually have to leave before sunrise, so it does get warmer on my ride, but that's about as close to a temperature rating I can give (I don't get bothered much by it being too cold, unless it's on my hands and feet).

I've only worn it in dry/fair weather, so I can't comment on exposure to rain, etc.

Amazing shoes for keeping warm and dry in mud season. I purchased these once seeing 2 inches of rain followed by 30F temps with 20MPH winds for this years Natchaug Epic gravel fondo in CT. Read great reviews and figured the Scots knew a thing or two about cold wet conditions. They are quite tight with the Large size barely fitting over a pair of 43 Fizik Terras, but nice and snug once zipped up. Unfortunately the zipper on the left boot failed when I first put them on but BikeTiresDirect sent a replacement the next day. Second pair had no issues.

Once on they protect your shoes well and are much sturdier than road booties. My cleats poke out enough to properly hike a bike and the rubber up front helps grip too.

On bike they do an amazing job isolation you from wind and water. Our route had icy puddles up to the pedals within the first 2 miles and while others had to swap socks out or complained of freezing toes I was fine over the course of a 5 hour ride. Never felt the wind and any water that may have splashed in the top didnt make an impact with wool socks underneath. When our group missed a turn and had to do an extended hike a bike i had no issues slipping on wet rocks.

Fantastic product and great support for BikeTiresDirect! Just be careful with sizing and putting them on.
