Sport Fit
If you can picture your favorite oversized t-shirt, you’re well on your way to knowing what a sport fit is. Sport fit describes a a fit that is loose-fitting and relaxed. Great for riding around town in a style that’s going to give you more than enough room to move around on or off the bike. If sport fit descibes how you want your Sahara jersey to fit, you should order atleast 2 sizes larger than the sizing chart recommends.
Pro Fit
If you’re comfortable in a tailored look, then the Race fit is probably the fit you’re looking for. More fitted to the body than the Pro fit, the Race fit is going to begin to give you some of the performance features of a higher-end jersey, but it’s still going to offer some room to breath. If Race fit describes how you want your Sahara Jersey to fit, the size recommended by the sizing chart should provide the fit you prefer.
Race Fit
A "race fit" is very form fitting in order to offer you the benefit of aerodynamic riding and ofter muscular support. A race fit feels the tightest of the three cuts we classify. If you want your Sahara Line jersey to have a race fit, and you are on the low end of a size described by the size chart, you should consider ordering a size down.
