Ibex for me. Can't wear them in hot weather (>80) but they work very nice in cool and cold weather. Their base layers are the very best imho.

I like Rapha too. The lightweight jersey works up to 85 or so for me.

Club jersey for anything below 75 is nice.

Rapha's Lightweight jersey is 21% merino, 79% polyester. Club jersey is 40% merino, 60% polyester.

That corroborates with my comfort preferences.

It's the Arnhem, but it has been discontinued now. It's a long sleeve, full zip model, which is perfect for the foggy summer mornings here in San Francisco.

I love Woolistic-manufactured jerseys, whether from Vintage Velos or, over the years, from other sources (Boure and Rivendell to name two). Not too heavy, not too light, and 100% wool.

But Vintage Velos seems to have far fewer jersey designs for sale than they did, say, four years ago.

Wonder why?
