As a cyclist always looking to discover new approaches to comfort and performance, I was curious about Parmi, a local brand that has become increasingly familiar in the cycling world. Their clean aesthetic and technical approach stood out to me, so I contacted them to test their Men’s Zipperless Cycling Jersey and see how it would perform across the kind of long, varied rides I often tackle.
About Parmi
Parmi is a brand rooted in purpose and refinement. Founded in Québec, it has built a reputation for thoughtfully designed cycling apparel that blends minimalist style with premium materials. Their gear speaks to cyclists who seek function without compromise and appreciate the subtleties of great design. With a growing presence on the road and gravel scene, Parmi is carving out a place for itself among brands that prioritize both performance and identity.
The men’s Zipperless cycling jersey
The Men’s Zipperless Jersey embodies Parmi’s philosophy. It features an aerodynamic, close-to-body fit without the need for a zipper, offering an uninterrupted feel and a clean silhouette. The elasticated opening makes it easy to put on, and the bonded seams and premium Italian fabric elevate both comfort and durability. The three rear pockets and low-profile rear gripper round out a sleek, high performance design.
Testing
I tested the jersey across a wide range of temperatures, both on fast road rides and long, dusty gravel adventures. From cool early morning starts to humid mid-afternoon efforts, the jersey remained breathable and impressively comfortable. It wicks moisture well and doesn’t feel clingy, even during high-output efforts. Its fit stays consistent without any fabric bunching or shifting, making it a great companion for demanding rides. The only drawback I encountered was when the jersey got soaked. It became more difficult to remove due to the close fit and lack of a zipper. That said, this was a minor inconvenience compared to the overall benefits.
In conclusion
Parmi’s zipperless jersey is a bold and well executed piece of cycling apparel that proves less can indeed be more. It’s a testament to thoughtful design and local innovation. For those looking to simplify without sacrificing performance, this jersey is well worth considering.
