Review: Nalini Pagro LS Jersey

We Liked

The cool graphics. The fabric is super soft with a medium weight brushed. The full zipper and reflective piping on pockets. Silicon grippers.on the bottom of the jersey keep it in place while riding.

We Didn't Like

That we can only afford one of them. The garment tags are very big and tend to be itchy against the skin. Although they eventually soften over multiple washings, we recommend using smaller tags with softer material.

The Final Say

Albabici, the importers of Nalini, were kind enough to send us a medium weight jersey to evaluate as well. Simply put, I really liked this jersey. The Pagro holds up well in the weather, fits superbly and is packed full of features. The sublimation detail is excellent on this garment. With the vibrant orange hue, this jersey inspired me to live up to the proud Dutch heritage of cyclocross. The Pagro is made from "Manto Dry" fabric that is highly breathable and resists stains. It holds up well in the wash and keeps it shape wash after wash. The material is made from 100% recycled polyester, which is comprised of plastic water bottles. So even though it’s orange it’s a green jersey. Good job! Nalini hit the mark with the Pagro's uber soft touch on the outside combined with a light brushed fleece on the inside. As it’s a medium weight jersey, adding a base layer will extend the temperature range (without a jacket) from the low 50's to the upper 60's. I definitely enjoyed the silicon grippers that encompassed the bottom of the jersey This will keep the jersey snug against your body and prevent it from riding up. These are the same style of grippers that are typically put on the end of cycling shorts and knickers. Another nice feature about this jersey is the high quality full- length zipper. As an added bonus, the zipper also has a wind flap behind it to keep the wind out. On windy days, I could definitely appreciate the high double-layered collar that this jersey has as well. The Pagro offers style and functionality in a medium weight jersey that will undoubtedly get used from fall through to late spring.
