Unparalleled in its versatility, this packable mid layer goes on offense in the cold—boosting thermal protection around your core and upper arms with its insulating OSMOS Heavy fabric.
Description
It’s no accident this short-sleeve “Thermobooster” mid layer resembles an aero jersey. By mirroring its silhouette, adding a full-length zipper, and including a pocket that doubles as a storage pouch, we’ve created a super versatile second layer that boosts thermal insulation around your core and upper arms, yet disappears in a rear pocket when things warm up. In fact, we’ve added a dedicated Thermobooster storage sleeve into the johDah Winter Jacket for this exact reason, allowing you to enter your winter training rides fully prepared for fluctuating weather and drastic changes in elevation.
Layered directly above your Skin Layer, the Thermobooster traps body heat, breathes, and expels excess moisture using our OSMOS Heavy textile. This is the thickest of our brushed-back fabrics, featuring a stretchy warp-knit composition that smoothly wraps your torso and upper arms for a full-on fortress against the cold. The raw-cut hem and reversed zipper smoothly integrate with layers above and below, ensuring your complete outfit system remains as streamlined as possible.

Reversed Zipper: Full-length zipper, reversed for a smooth action and clean integration with outer layers.
