RH+ Ladies Venere Jersey
by Diane Vilarem, Senior Editor
That’s the slogan for stylish Italian skiing & cycling brand rh+. I had the pleasure of trying out their apparel. Here’s what I found 🙂
With strong colorful designs, rh+ stands out from the crowd. You will definitively be noticed wearing this innovative brand. Italians are known for their sense of fashion, and rh+ has a good variety of classy Jersey designs; I tried both the Venere and the Fashion.
The Venere jersey is soft and tight fitting, yet it’s flexible enough not to be uncomfortable, allowing freedom of movement for the rider. The material used by RH+ is Morphic Dry Tech 4Way Stretch, which, according to the RH+ webpage is “extremely light and stretchable” – I can vouch for that! The materials used help to maximise airflow and moisture control in the right areas, with a heavier Lycra in hard wearing areas too. It has a good quality full length zipper, neatly tucked behind a soft cloth.
There are two accessible rear pockets to take those important items, as well as a zipped mini pocket for you to keep the cash needed for that coffee. Zipped pockets are a must these days, but often forgotten.
In those important areas at the hem and sleeves, holding the jersey in place, the bottom hem and sleeves cuff are cut using a soft stretch fabric with good elastic strength to keep the jersey fit looking great. We women like a jersey to perform and look stylish, and the fit on this RH+ jersey is superb, matching my body perfectly and allowing easing and comfortablemevment on and off the bike.
The stylish collar matches the sleeve cuff and is soft and just high enough to keep slight chills off you, without feeling restrictive.
Overall then, it’s definitely a stylish cut and design, and it’s clear that it was created with focus on offering a high quality product. All in all, RH+ do not disappoint! My overall impression is very good; they manage to mix Italian sense of fashion with comfort and performance. Highly recommended.
Stay sporty and classy! 😉
