What Makes Our Mountain Bike Jerseys Different? A Deep Dive into Superior Design and Performance

When it comes to mountain biking, the right gear can make all the difference in comfort, performance, and durability. At GLDN, we set out to create jerseys that don’t just meet industry standards—they exceed them. Designed with passionate riders in mind, our jerseys combine cutting-edge materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and rider-focused features to deliver an unparalleled experience on the trails.

So, what sets our mountain bike jerseys apart from the rest? Let’s break it down.

Premium, Sustainable Materials for Performance and Durability

We believe that high-performance gear shouldn’t come at the cost of the environment. That’s why our jerseys are crafted from 100% recycled polyester, offering a sustainable solution without compromising on quality.

This fabric choice is intentional—it provides the perfect balance of:

Lightweight Comfort – At just 4.7 oz/yd² (160 g/m²), our jerseys feel breathable and soft, making them comfortable for long rides.

Moisture-Wicking Properties – Whether you’re grinding up a climb or bombing down a descent, sweat is inevitable. Our fabric actively pulls moisture away from the skin, keeping you dry and comfortable.

Durability and Longevity – Mountain biking is tough on gear. Our jerseys are built to withstand abrasion from trail debris, branches, and repetitive movements without wearing down.

By choosing recycled materials, we’re reducing our environmental footprint while giving riders a jersey that performs at the highest level.

Thoughtful Design for Fit and Function

A mountain bike jersey should move with you—not against you. That’s why we carefully crafted a tailored, athletic fit that offers freedom of movement without being too baggy or restrictive.

Key Design Features:

Raglan-Style Sleeves – This design eliminates shoulder seams, providing better mobility for handling the bike and reducing chafing.

O-Collar with a Double-Layered V-Neck – We chose this combination for added comfort, ensuring the collar sits smoothly without irritation or tightness.

Two-Way Stretch Fabric – Unlike standard jerseys that can feel stiff, our material has a slight stretch in both directions, allowing for unrestricted motion when navigating technical terrain.

Our goal? A jersey that feels like a second skin—so comfortable that you forget you’re wearing it.

Ultimate Protection for Trail Riders

Spending long hours under the sun can take a toll, so we integrated UPF 50+ protection into our jerseys. This means riders get maximum protection from harmful UV rays, reducing the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage.

Additionally, our jerseys feature a non-restrictive fit that works with body armor for those who tackle aggressive downhill trails. Whether you ride cross-country, enduro, or downhill, we designed our jerseys to adapt to different riding styles and conditions.

Unique Aesthetic with Subtle Yet Bold Branding

At GLDN, we believe in clean, timeless designs that look as good as they perform. Instead of loud, over-the-top graphics, we focus on:

Bold Colors & Subtle Patterns – Inspired by the natural beauty of mountain landscapes, our jerseys feature vibrant yet understated designs.

Embroidered Logos & Custom Tags – Unlike screen-printed logos that fade over time, our embroidered branding ensures long-lasting quality with a premium touch.

The result? A jersey that stands out for all the right reasons—whether you’re shredding trails or grabbing a post-ride coffee.

Handcrafted Quality 

Unlike mass-produced jerseys, each of our jerseys is handcrafted with attention to detail. We take pride in small-batch production, ensuring superior stitching, reinforced seams, and precision-cut panels for a fit that stays true even after countless rides and washes.

Every aspect of our jersey—from the fabric choice to the final stitch—is designed with the rider in mind. We don’t cut corners, and it shows in the quality.
