Thanks TE, for starting to sell one of the sun protective summerweight biking jersey.

This is a start...

Thanks, I was looking for exactly this kind of thing.

Can anyone comment on whether the Canari jerseys are true to the size chart presented? I am exactly on the borderline between M and L, on the chest, waist and hip measurements. I like the jerseys tight so that they don't flap around, but, uh, not so tight as to be unflattering.

Thanks!

Sizing is true to the chart. I have a sleeveless Canari jersey in medium and it fits just right. I fall in between small and medium. Perhaps you should get the large if you want a not too tight fit.

Now, there's a jersey that might just have me leaving my wool during the summer! If it ever got sunny and hot.
(I'm wearing: wool socks, long underwear, Levis, wool turtleneck, wool vest. Yup! Spring in Seattle!)

I'm very grateful that TE did independent UPF testing on the fabric! Thanks SusanO! Some of us really need to know the real numbers, and I really appreciate it!

Yay, Susan!

Our pleasure. :-)

It actually tested out at almost 40 UPF, but they apply a hefty margin of error to be conservative. That brought it down to 32, and the convention is to round down to the nearest number ending in 0 or 5, so it ends up at 30.

We get lots of requests for a sun protective jersey, so when we saw how light and airy this long sleeve piece was from Canari, we were pretty sure we'd found a winner. We were delighted to get back the results that it tested over 30!

Is it possible to get a sleeve length measurement?

I have very long arms, and want sleeves to be covering my wrists from the sun. I seem to be right on the border between L and XL by the Canari chart, and am leaning toward XL just to be sure of the sleeves.

(I think my center of neck to crease at wrist measurement is something like 33 inches)

Thanks!
