Troy Lee Designs Sprint Shorts, Jersey and Gloves – First Look
Troy Lee Sprint Shorts
The sprint shorts are a mid-weight short with a mix of stretchy and durable panels combining ventilation with hard wearing practicality. Both thighs get small pockets, enough for a key, some change and lift pass or at a push, a mobile. The waist is rubberised round the inside to help it grip on your bibs, and has elasticated velcro straps to cinch it in. Length and cut is relaxed without being overly baggy. There are the usual TLD colourways and stylings, I’m a big fan of the black 50/50 kit with it’s subtle logos, unusually understated for me! RRP £89.99

Sprint Jersey
Pairing up with the shorts is the simple, well cut and well vented Sprint jersey. A soft polyester fabric with vented panels make for a comfortable jersey you can ride all day in. The cut has enough room for slim elbow pads and back protection without being baggy. All the jerseys match up with the shorts colour ways, letting you choose just how pro you want to look. RRP £49.99
