How is a gravel cycling jersey different from a road jersey?

Gravel jerseys are built for longer, more self-supported rides, so they carry more pocket storage for food and tools, use more durable fabrics that shrug off brush and abrasion, and run a slightly more relaxed cut than a race-fit road jersey. The women's-specific shaping through the shoulders, waist, and hips is the same.

What's the difference between the Quest, Attack, and PRO gravel jerseys?

Quest is the do-everything everyday jersey with a comfortable fit. Attack is a closer, faster cut in lighter fabric, with Air and sleeveless versions for heat. PRO is the most technical. All carry rear storage and quick-dry fabrics.

How should a women's gravel jersey fit?

Close enough to move sweat and stay quiet, but with a touch more room than a road race fit for comfort over long, rough miles. Sleeves should stay put and the drop tail should cover your lower back in the riding position. Check our Size & Fit Guide if you're between sizes.

How much pocket storage do I need for gravel?

More than you'd think. Three rear pockets plus a secure zip pocket lets you carry nutrition, a phone, and small tools without a pack. On long, remote routes, pair the jersey with cargo bib shorts for extra capacity rather than overloading the jersey.

Should I choose a short sleeve, long sleeve, or sleeveless jersey?

Short sleeve for most gravel days, sleeveless for peak heat, and long sleeve or thermal for sun coverage and cool starts. Since gravel rides often start cold and warm up, a base layer plus a packable layer gives you more range than a second jersey would.

Do gravel jerseys have sun protection?

Many use UPF-rated fabrics, which is worth prioritising for long days on exposed dirt roads where reapplying sunscreen isn't easy. Lighter colors and good ventilation help keep you cool. See Sun Protection for the wider range.

How do I wash a gravel jersey?

Close the zips, wash cold on a gentle cycle, skip fabric softener, and air-dry. Rinse off dust and trail grime after dry, dirty rides so grit doesn't grind into the fabric, and keep it out of the dryer to protect the stretch and grippers.

Women's Attack Jersey

Long routes, mixed surfaces, no support van. Our women's gravel cycling jerseys are built for range, pairing durable, snag-resistant fabrics with generous storage and a slightly more relaxed women's cut than a road race top. They vent hard on climbs and stay quiet in the wind.

Choose Your Jersey

Quest: the do-everything gravel jersey, with fast-dry fabrics and roomy rear storage.

Attack: a closer, faster cut for hard efforts, with Air and sleeveless options for hot, exposed dirt roads.

PRO: the most technical construction for race-pace gravel.

Merino blends: temperature regulation and odor resistance for long and multi-day adventures.

Fabric Tech That Works

Snag-resistant face fabrics: handle grit and pack straps over long, rough miles.

Moisture-moving yarns: pull sweat off skin so wind chills you less on descents.

UPF-rated options: protect on exposed miles where reapplying sunscreen is awkward.

BioViz™ reflectivity: visible to 100 meters for dawn starts and late roll-ins.

Fit & Sizing

Gravel jerseys run close but not tight, with a women's-specific cut through the shoulders, waist, and hips, sleeves that stay put, and a drop tail that covers the lower back in the riding position. Use our Size & Fit Guide and How to Choose a Jersey to lock your size.

Temperature Guide

75°F and up (24°C+): ultralight or sleeveless jersey; a thin base layer still helps by spreading sweat for faster evaporation.

60 to 75°F (16 to 24°C): standard gravel jersey; stash a packable wind vest for descents.

45 to 60°F (7 to 16°C): long sleeve or thermal jersey with a wind jacket; add arm or knee warmers.

Wet or windy: bump up one level and go seam-sealed with Women's Wet Weather.

Layering for the Range

Base: a breathable base layer manages sweat across tempo swings.

Outer: carry packable wind protection; for rain and spray, go seam-sealed.

Lower: match with cargo shorts and bib shorts for extra carrying capacity.

Cold: when it turns, switch to tights and bib tights.
