Giordana Womens Forma Red Carbon Jersey

Giordana Forma Red Jersey

Winner of Bicycling Editor's Choice for High-End Women's Jerseys

• The Women's FR-C jersey sits at the top of our women's elite offerings.
• Ultra-light  fabric is used for the majority of the jersey, keeping the overall weight to a minimum.
• Incredibly soft, the fabric is 14% spandex and utilizes a honeycomb knit, allowing omni-directional stretch for optimal fit.
• Its properties of superior wicking and elasticity are woven into the fabric and will not lessen over time.
• A second fabric,  has threads of carbon woven through it, allowing the material to be lighter, while maintaining its strength.
• The carbon reinforces for durability and limits the stretch in key areas.
• Carbon has the added benefit of reducing electrical interference around internal organs.
• At the cuffs and at the waist, is backed with the signature red  to form the Aerofix Gripper System, which holds the jersey perfectly in place with a seamless feel.
• This material is perforated to create pockets of air next to the skin and to allow airflow to pass through.
• The result is a light, breathable gripper that keeps the skin cool and dry underneath.
• A fourth fabric, forms the Y shape of the back panel.
• It also incorporates carbon and is chosen specifically for this location to limit the vertical stretch in the back, stabilizing the pockets to prevent sag when they are loaded.
• The Y shape panel also eliminates puckers and creases by ergonomically following the body's contours.
• A separate pattern piece wraps the collar to isolate the neck and head, preventing pulling and bunching in the riding position.
• The white X-Fine micro-mesh allows maximum breathability.
• A full CamLock  zip in front has flaps of fabric at the top and bottom to protect the materials from the zipper teeth.
• Three back pockets are finished in piping that corresponds to the accent flat stitching.
• There is a fourth zippered compartment for valuables.
• Reflective elements on the center back pocket increase visibility.
• While this garment is ideal for very hot weather, it can be worn over a base layer for adequate coverage in surprisingly cool weather as well.
