SombrioGirl Cloud 9 – 3/4 FRD Jersey
Sombrio has outdone themselves again with their Womens Cloud 9 Freeride Jersey. What’s so great about it? Well the first thing is that it’s a jersey designed specifically for women and, more importantly, it’s designed for women who like to ride hard. The Chitosanté fabric treatment allows for excellent breathability, durability and un-restricted movement while the 3/4 sleeve design provides warmth so it’s great for hectic rides and for mellow rides. Plus, the jersey is tailored for womens’ torsos and has a very cool print pattern because it’s not only important that jerseys be practical but they should make you look good too! As an added bonus the jersey is made from an MEC recycleable fabric so you’re also helping out good ol’ mother earth.
Here is the technical version of the ChitoSanté story:
ChitoSante® 145 gsm Interlock
ChitoSante® is a new environmentally friendly treatment that is made from a natural biomass called chitosan. Chitosan is made from crab and/or shrimp shells. It is created when chitosan is combined with textile fibers during the dyeing and/or finishing process. Since Chitosan binds very easily it can be combined with a variety of different fibers and creates a fabric with many benefits. ChitoSanté is absorbent, breathable, durable, fast drying, soft, static-free, wrinkle proof, pilling resistant and easy to handle. Along with these benefits, Chitosante has natural and durable antibacterial properties. ChitoSanté strongly inhibits the growth of bacteria meaning fabrics stay fresh, hygienic and odor resistant.
ChitoSanté is the only anti-bacterial bio-agent in the world that is certified by the US Environmental Protection Agency. It has also received approval by authorities in Britain, China, Japan and Switzerland.
