Whether on an early morning plast or multi-day tour, there's nothing more comfortable than riding in nature's technical fibre.

Highly breathable and regulates your body temperature
Corespun blended fabric for improved durability and fit
Merino wool is naturally odour resistant for multiple wears

Made with a 200 gsm merino blend, this slightly thicker jersey is luxuriously comfortable and its high warmth to weight ratio and long sleeves will keep you warm on cooler days and early morning rides. A full length zip provides easy ventilation if you do start to overheat.

Merino wool is naturally breathable and temperature regulating, keeping you comfortable all day, even in changing conditions. These properties mean the Kepler Velo makes an ideal base to your layering system, as well as a standalone jersey. Natural odour resistance means you can wear your Kepler Velo repeatedly without needing a wide quarantine zone for the smell! Perfect for bike tours when clothes washing is but a distant memory!

We’ve used Core Spun merino for our Kepler Velo jerseys, a technology with all the benefits of merino but with added durability. It’s still merino on the outside but a nylon and spandex core produces a fabric that’s harder wearing and rebounds back into shape better than 100% merino for a better cycling fit.

Kepler Velo features three rear cargo pockets: an overlap opening for your left hand, a security zipped pocket for your right, and an elasticated open pocket in the centre. A snug (but not race) fit is a more relaxed fit for more riding, with a drop tail and gripper hem elastic. Reflective tape woven into the zips helps you to stay visible and safe when you're whizzing past.

Care & Environmental Advice

Product Care Information

The better you look after this merino garment, the better it will look after you. Give your Kepler a long, happy life with these tips: Hand wash your merino in lukewarm water, or gentle machine wash.

Darn any holes as soon as possible so they don’t grow.

Avoid snagging, vigorous machine washing, putting your finger through the fabric, and hungry moths.

Environmental considerations

We only use merino from certified non-mulesed sources. Mulesing is a practice some farms use to guard against parasitic fly strike. We believe this practice is cruel and unnecessary and something that can be easily prevented by regular shearing.
