    Sugoi Jerseys...wow.

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I wore my Sugoi Atomic Jersey (from TE) on my commute in to school this morning. I had a backpack on with my work clothes, etc. inside. I felt totally dry and comfy on the way in. Then, when I went to change and wash up at work, I opened up my backpack and yikes! Sweat had worked its way into my backpack. I had to dry out my work pants. I then realized that my map was ruined, too!

    Nice fabric, huh! It sure sucked away a lot of moisture without me even realizing it! And when I took it off, it was barely damp. I'm a believer!

    I have not wore Sugoi for cycling, but I do for runnning and it is my all time favourite brand.

    Does Sugoi fit true to size? I saw that the atomic jersey is on clearance but I can't tell if I am an xs. Although I should probably get a short sleeve or a tank top first as it is summer.

    Sugoi fits true to size, at least on my body. I wear a 36B bra and wear a size M Sugoi top (I ignore the bra cup sizing-at least for me). I have broad shoulders that need accomodating. I have several Sugoi tops of various fabrics. If you have a doubt, call TE and they will measure the jersey for you. I looked at the jersey, very nice, too small for me though.

    Oh for future reference Sugoi bottoms run wonderfully true to measurements. I wear an XS and love the fit of every Sugoi bottom I have.

    cool, thanks!


    Now can you tell me, Bikingmomof three, do your tops wick as well as Northstar's atomic jersey? All of the tops seem to be made of different material and I just want one that prevents that icky sticky feeling. I think I want a tank top a short sleeve and I can't get the same one.

    Every piece of Sugoi I own wicks splendidly and I sweat profusely. Eww, bad mental image there.
