Tech Shorts
Canadian based company Loeka (pronounced Low-ka) has created a cute and sexy spring line just for us girls.  The Loeka collection is styled for women’s mountain biking and downhilling but I’ve had a blast using the shorts with my cruiser rides down the boardwalk & the found the jersey’s sexy and comfortable for mountain and road excursions.
Loeka’s “baggies” tech shorts are lined with a super soft lycra, for silky smoothness on your bootie with an exterior built with microsuede polyester for durability.  Styled after a woman’s physique you’ll find the shorts a good fit around the hips and waist, showing off the curves without extra baggy material.  Given the style and grace of these shorts they will defiantly be a hit with all bike cultures and a variety of age groups.  Not only are they practical and comfortable, they are sexy and fun.  The spring 07 shorts are offered in great girl power colors such as: pink on grey, ice blue, black and terracotta.  Loeka Tech shorts are offered with a length option of medium or long, ranging in sized S-L.  Pricing ranges from $99.99-$109.99 CDN.

Jerserys
Every great pair of bottoms must have a top to match.  Loeka’s spring jerseys fit beautifully with great style and simple designs to coordinate with your favorite shorts.  I’ve been spending a lot of riding time in the “Pretty” long sleeve baby pink and grey jersey.   I spent October through January riding in California wearing the jerseys experiencing a range of weather possibilities.  I’ve been cool on warm days and stayed a warm on cool days.  The jersey doesn’t seem to get wet with sweat no matter how hard I tried, because all Loeka’s jerseys are made with coolmax material making them wicking and breathable.  Wow, does it work. .  The raglan style shoulder cut completely eliminates any king of underarm pull.  The wrists of the sleeves void of elastic, are easy to push up and stay snug on the forearm without the annoying elastic impression.   The boys think Loeka’s alright too.  I finished up a mountain bike ride with the boys just a few weeks ago and was complimented on my “sexy” attire, in my pink Loeka gear.  There was no mistaken this hard core, skilled mountain biker was all woman.   The jerseys come in long sleeve and no sleeve, XS- XL, price range $69.99 to $79.99 CDN.

Lifestyle Wear
To top off Loeka’s active wear, they added a piece called the “Lil Black Dress.”  A sport hoodie for post ride cover-up.  Hang up this active sports hoodie in your closet and you’ll find yourself pulling it out for yoga, gym, shopping, outdoor dining, movies or cuddling up to a fire and a movie.  The most important thing is that this form fitting hoodie feels good and is a universal piece.  Side pockets and full zip top off the garmet.  Currently available in black or brown, sizes S-XL, pricing $89.99 CDN.
