Camisa Brasil - Cycling Shirt is Sharp!
By Joan Young on
This Hi-Dry polyester shirt has a 3/4 zip front with elastic bottom, and 3 back pockets.Its one of the most attractive cycling shirts I think Ive seen, and it seems to be high quality as well.
This shirt was sent to my husband from Brazil by his sister (whose taste is impeccable!). It is made of a very soft and silky polyester knit that apparently wicks quite well.Unlike so many of these shirts it does not stink like a thousand old locker rooms after one bike ride.That was a big plus for me.
It is a typical biking shirt with a slight stand-up collar (double fabric).The front zips open with an invisible zipper about three-quarters of the length of the front; you need to slip it on over your head. There is a small metal pendant zipper pull.These kinds of zippers can occasionally be annoying, but they provide the smooth appearance of a seam when zipped, instead of a bulky placket. The back is slightly longer than the front, and encases soft elastic in the entire bottom hem to help prevent flapping and riding up.The lower back has the usual three pockets with smooth, encased elastic tops.The seams are all serged with none that are too shallow and headed for early failure.
I particularly like the colors with the bright lime green, yellow, white and royal blue, with Brasil appearing in several locations on the shirt.The web site shows this shirt with short sleeves or sleeveless.There are other designs as well, but you will need to be able to read Portugese to make complete sense of it. It comes in mens S-2XL.Made in Brazil.
The only drawback I can see is that it is marked hand wash.However, it washes out and dries so easily that this isnt as big of a deal as it might be.
Its not clear to me (since I dont read Portugese) whether shirts can be ordered on line, or if you have to live in Brazil to buy them.But there is both email and a telephone listed under Contato if you just have to have this shirt!
Adenosina carries other cycling clothes as well, for both men and women.
Just looking at this shirt makes me want to get a bike and go riding. :)
That is a really nice looking bike shirt! I also really like the color combination. It really pops while still looking stylish. Kudos to it also not holding onto sweat and odor!
Very nice looking bike shirt, it really sounds like a great piece of clothing. THanks for sharing.
I love the bright colors of your shirt!!!!!! Happy biking to you!
That is a nice shirt. I love the colors. I am not into cycling but I admire those who do it.
Love that feature that you mentioned: it does not stink like a thousand old locker rooms after one bike ride, haha great description there.
Nice and comfy material and I love the bright colours too.
