Ornot Micro Grid LS + Cargo Bib Shorts Cycling Kit Review - feat. Polartec Power Grid + Breathable

Ornot is a San Francisco based cycling apparel brand that was designed to handle the varying microclimates the area is known for. In this review, we’ll be specifically looking at two items in their lineup: the Micro Grid Long Sleeve jersey and the Cargo Bib Shorts. Both items utilize sustainable materials, high tech fabrics and have premium brand-free designs. The Micro Grid Long Sleeve jersey retails for $162 and is rated for 56-70 degree Fahrenheit temperature range. One of the key features of the jersey is the Polartec Power Grid material which offers breathability and moisture wicking. The Cargo Bib Short retails for $184 and features four pockets for carrying gear and food. Reflective detailing and Endurance Chamois ensure comfort and safety with the bib shorts. Together the jersey and bib shorts are a great cool weather kit and for layering. The Ornot Cargo Bib Shorts combine the brand’s knowledge and feedback they gained from their popular House Bib Shorts but add more features and pockets. Ornot offers the Cargo Bib Shorts in three different color schemes: olive, black and stone blue. We have the stone blue, which is a darker shade of blue that pairs well with Ornot’s subdued color palette. While it lacks the visual pop of graphic kits like the Pearl iZUMi PRO, the color schemes pair well with just about anything. The bib shorts are constructed with recycled fabric which even includes the chamois with a soft and stretchy material. As with Ornot’s other products, branding is almost non-existent which gives the bib shorts a premium appearance. Ornot’s Micro Grid jerseys were specifically designed to handle varying temperatures and offer warmth and breathability. The jerseys have the same light weight fabric as the Ornot’s House jerseys but utilize the Polartec Power Grid structure. The jerseys are offered in short sleeve variations or the long sleeve we have here. This is the Americano color scheme which has a brown color scheme with a yellow front facing zipper for some additional color. What you’ll notice is that there is almost no branding on the exterior of the jersey which gives it a premium appearance. The jersey has a contoured design with minimal seams to optimize the fit.... ...
