It'll do just fine by itself in spring or fall riding, and you can couple it with a vest or jacket for effective layering when it gets colder.

Guide Review - Sugoi Shelby Men's Cycling Jersey

For cool weather riding, you're going to like Sugoi's Shelby Jersey. With three snappy color combinations (base colors in green, red, or black with gray and white stripes) it looks sharp. Better yet is the construction from the FinoTherm fabric, which offers a cozy fleece-like feel that offers terrific warmth, comfort and moisture wicking properties.

One thing that could've been left out, in my opinion, is the full-zipper. I simply think pull-over jerseys, or ones with maybe 18" zippers at the neck, are best. With a full zip-up front, this gives the feeling that you are wearing a jacket. However, this does allow for good temperature regulation, and the jersey is a nice fit over a wicking layer or under an outer jacket or vest. Its three elastic back pockets are plenty deep for holding your cycling necessities.

All-in-all, the Shelby jersey by Sugoi is a well-made product and a pleasure to wear because of its look, fit and feel.
