Downhill riding holds some serious demands that very few other sports call for. With intensely high speeds, beefy rock gardens, and some major consequences there's not doubting that preparation is important before hitting the trail. We suggest starting with packing on the right body armor, but protection doesn't have to stop there. The POC Resistance DH Jersey has you covered with extra durability, aiming to keep you, and even your body armor, scuff free. The jersey is built with flexible synthetic fabric throughout most of the body, designed for breathability and mobility on the bike, but key areas, like the elbows are forearms, feature an extra boost. Abrasion-resistant Cordura reinforces the elbows and sleeves for added protection in the event of a crash, reducing friction during a fall.
