The long-sleeve Route Jersey from Craft is ideal for fall riding. The dark colors worried us, but the reflective trim shines brightly at the perfect moment. Seven back pockets (one zippered) for stashing gels, gloves and phones. Pair with the Glow vest and enjoy your ride.

Yes, I pretty much have issues when it comes to things matching.
