"Pure Plus" Jersey by Leif Kruse Women's

OVERVIEW: Ideal for every adventure, the new lighter weight, more breathable Ascent 3.0 jersey will be your constant companion as you climb, descend, explore and discover. Built on the heritage of our core Ascent Collection and following on the success of our Ascent Air 2.0 and Summit Jerseys, we redesigned the Ascent 3.0 jersey with performance in mind. Our new SwiftDry fabric is soft to the touch, extremely breathable and yet resilient for those long days in the saddle. The supportive structure of the BreatheLITE mesh on the back will allow you to stuff the pockets full for the all-day trek through the mountains and its wicking properties keep you dry and comfortable throughout each climb and descent. The result is a jersey that weighs significantly less than the previous Ascent iterations and through our Silhouette Engineering, offers a slimmer, form fit.

PAIR WITH: Pair with the best-selling Ascent Vector bibs, featuring Flash moisture management technology and the multi-density and perforated Liege Carbonium chamois, for the same all-day comfort in a variety of conditions. Pack the Flagstaff RT Jacket into one of the full-size pockets and you're ready for any intermittent storms, strong winds or a chilly descents the mountains offer. For cool early morning departures, pair with arm warmers and the extremely packable Divide Vest to cut the chill and keep you warm as you roll out.

FABRIC & CONSTRUCTION: Designed with versatility in mind, the Ascent is constructed with a combination of the light-weight, breathable wicking SwiftDry and BreatheLITE mesh fabric. The performance minded form fit design shapes your body while in the riding position for optimal comfort. Combined with a full-length zipper for venting, silicone-impregnated, compression arm bands, silicone waist gripper and neck tape, you'll get maximum comfort throughout the duration of your ride. Finally, three full-sized rear pockets provide ample room for storage for those all-day adventures. It's the performance-minded workhorse for a new generation!
