Zoca Active Women's Tech Tee

Designed to coordinate with the tights in the same range, the Active Women's Tech Tee is a stylish sleeveless alternative to standard summer jersey designs. Made from the same supple fabric as the tights, the top is stretchy and sleek, with sporty good looks. There's an integral stretch mesh bra top so you can choose whether to wear a bra underneath or not.

Larger busted ladies may prefer to still wear a sports bra as it's not that supportive, but it should be fine for the majority. There's a zip at the front for ventilation, a generous single zipped pocket across the lower back and a reflective strip for added visibility. The hem of the rear is shaped to be subtly cycling friendly.

On the bike, the top is comfortable and an excellent temperature for summer rides. The sleeveless design does make armwarmers an odd looking choice, so it's best suited to days where the weather is stable. The fabric wicks moisture well and keeps you cool, but I'd have liked a longer front zip. The rear zip pocket was a useful size, and would appeal to anyone not keen on the disrupted lines of elasticated pouch style pockets. It's not quite as handy for water bottles though, and heavier things do tend to rattle around a little.

The sizing is about right, with a medium equivalent to a UK12. Torso length is good, with no problem of exposed skin at the back, no matter what the riding position, and the fabric is stretchy but not too clingy and revealing.

Worn together with the matching tights it makes a fashionable and comfortable cycling outfit. It's also versatile enough for runners too.

Verdict

Attractive and sporty looking summer riding top at a decent price.
