Yesterday, a wonderful ride report, RIDEALIVE2017 VOL.1 Mie Day2, by ADAPT|Kyohei-chan was uploaded. I was reading it with envy, thinking about how simply fun BIKE&HIKE seems to be. More than anything, the smiles of everyone who participated tell the story, and my excitement is building for the next one on July 22–23 in Shizuoka. Of course, the Gifu event in October that I, TAKA, am in charge of won't be losing to it, either.
Inocchi from WELLDONE and Director EDIT from EDIT are currently repeating test runs and fine-tuning things little by little, so please look forward to it.
At that RIDEALIVE2017 VOL.1 Mie, many people were wearing the 7MESH Desperado Henley Shirt. Naturally, I’ve been using it myself as both casual wear and for rides, and now that it’s been about a month, I realize it’s packed with the kind of meticulous attention to detail you’d expect from 7MESH, all hidden behind a simple design.
It’s a simple henley neck T-shirt, but I was first won over by the pleasant texture and resilient blend of 53% polyester and 47% merino wool. The heathered color unique to the material is nice, but when you actually use it, you become convinced of why they chose this blended material. With merino wool alone, while it has high water absorption, it can be slow to dry, which can sometimes feel uncomfortable. However, by blending in polyester, you get not only quick-drying properties but also durability.
And what truly sets 7MESH apart from other brands is their use of complex patterns tailored to the riding position. When you’re in a riding position, there is no fabric pulling, allowing you to experience a stress-free ride and focus entirely on your cycling. The new logo embroidery, which acts as an accent even when wearing it on its own, is also great, don't you think?
Because it’s just so good, as I mentioned at the beginning, I’ve essentially bought up all the manufacturer's stock. Just trust me and try wearing it once!
・Staff member JUS (height 179cm / weight 88kg) is wearing a size L.
A snug, base-layer fit is fine, but for versatile use, I personally recommend a slightly roomier size.
We have already received great feedback in the shop, and all colors in size XS have sold out, so if you are interested, please act fast!!
