    Vanderkitten Jersey - Review

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Last year, I ordered the Vanderkitten jersey. Apparently, they either ran out of them or had difficulties with the manufacturer. I never received the jersey.

    Much to my surprise, a couple weeks ago a package came in the mail. I didn't order anything, so it was odd. Opened it up and there was a Vanderkitten jersey.

    I've wore it once, during an indoor Spinerval session.

    The positives: Fabric is nice and silky. Seems to wick ok, but I had on a Craft cool wicking base layer. I like the design -- kitty w/attitude. It's a white/black jersey, with the design in black and light blue. Roomy back pockets. Well made but not "Exte Ondo" well made.

    The negatives: This jersey is a small. It fits more like a men's small, even though it is cut narrow enough in the shoulder area so the sleeves/top part don't bag. However, it is long enough to fit the Jolly Green Giant. Pulling it down, it almost goes down to my crotch. I'm not incredibly short waisted, either, and usually, ladies' smalls fit me fine in terms of length. As a result, the jersey is baggy.

    I hate the elastic bottom. The overly-long cut of the jersey makes it worse. If it wasn't so long, I could live with it, especially since it's a nice, unique design.

    I might end up posting this one F/S.

    It would be perfect for someone petite but with a long torso.
