Avoid being boiled alive when the sun turns up the volume. The Rock Lobster boasts its own theme song for company, plus a stand-up collar and long sleeves for shade on those long exposed days on the road.

The Rock Lobster feels soft on my skin, and I didn't get sunburnt through it! I love the green. My only "negative" is that I think it will be too hot on an Aussie stinker. Gah. They're not enjoyable riding days anyway. It's great for spring, and will be great for cooler summer days, mornings, evenings, autumn, winter... I sized based on GE's chart, and being on a size cusp, I sized up and got the nice loose fit I wanted. I wonder if it will last as long as my previous gear - I'll get back to you in a decade for an update. My Double Happys lasted 8 years before the liner gave up. I cut the liner out and used the outers for several more years! A well deserved five stars!
The jersey is soft, comfortable, provides sun protection for the arms and neck, goes easily over base layers when it's cold, and looks just great.
My last one lasted 15 years. Just purchased one exactly the same. What better review
This is my third one. The last one was threadbare. I looked at alternative options but Rock Lobster suits me best.
This has been my go to riding top for many years. Third one I have purchased and all are still in use.
