I didn't realize they had more than a messenger bag line... shows my ignorance, I guess. :-) Yeah, the snug-ness around the midsection of the 753 jersey seemed odd at first, but once I used it on the trail, it made sense. Everything stays in place when the rear pocket is loaded with a water bottle, phone, etc. I’ll have to check out Chrome’s apparel.

On a recent ride in San Francisco I met an outdoor clothing designer who had created a few new Merino wool pieces for Chrome Industries. I checked them out, and threw-down on a Chrome Industries Pacer Jacket and it really rocks. The Pacer is 100% Merino Wool and designed for riding. I usually wear an Icebreaker Tech Top 260 which has been my go to for the wonderful San Francisco weather, but the Pacer has become my new favorite. Perfect weight, long in the back and, well, just fits. I own several Swobo items, but had similar issues with a couple of their other garments (too tight around the waist.)
