Cold weather, shorter days, and subsequently, low-light conditions all come along with the transition from early autumn to the winter months. Here to keep you happily in the saddle through the aforementioned changes, Giordana’s FR-C Pro Reflective Bib Tights tag along on frigid rides with a focus on comfort, quality, and reflectivity.
Made from Super Roubaix, these tights’ thermal fabric retains precious body heat, wicks sweat, moves with you, and has a brushed interior for next-to-skin softness. Then, Super Roubaix Carbon in the Core Contour System, as well as from the knees down to the ankles, completely wraps your internal organs and lower body with protective carbon to prevent fatigue from setting in too early on. Stretchy, breathable, and stabilizing bib uppers keep everything well-supported and ventilated with a women’s-specific design, while the Cirro S chamois soaks up impact on the road, which can feel worse in winter temperatures. Keeping you visible, Giordana paired Pixel reflective fabric on the inside calf and the rear panels with reflective ankle zippers to help you stay seen by motorists on the road.
You’ve heard that layering for cold weather is best. The question is: What are the best layers to use? The new Gore Power 2.0 Thermo Lady Jersey is ideal as a mid-layer: underneath a vest for spring and fall and under a heavier jacket, such as Gore’s Power 2.0 Lady Jacket, for blustery winter rides.
The jersey’s polyester fabric, brushed on the inside for softness, and an anatomic fit with a partially elasticized hem that keeps the jersey where it should, make cool weather training fun again. The brushed fabric is more than just comfortable: it has a highly wicking inside that moves moisture away from the skin. Rapid movement of perspiration off of the skin prevents rapid core cooling from wet and sticky fabrics. Helping the body with thermo-regulation keeps your body warmer and drier. So get ready to pile on some miles.
The Gore Power 2.0 Lady Jersey was constructed with a women’s specific form fit and three back pockets. It has a full-length zipper with a semi-lock slider, zip underflap and port, and reflective logo for visibility. It comes in sizes X-Small to XX-Large and is available in Neon Yellow/red, Black/white, White/black, and Red/white.
Come spring or autumn, look no further than the Castelli Women’s Sciccosa Full-Zip Jersey to assure adaptive warmth and moisture management. The Sciccosa features Castelli’s Warmer fleece fabric, which not only breathes well, but also provides subtle, yet substantial warmth, wicks moisture, and dries quickly. Additionally, the bonded, two-layer fabric at the collar, cuffs, and waist enhances overall warmth and maintains a seamless fit and feel. The full-length zipper is endowed with a windflap to protect your vital organs from warmth-sapping winds, and the reflective detailing promotes added visibility in low-light conditions.
A wind jacket like the Louis Garneau X-Lite Jacket is one of the most important accessories a cyclist can own. It really only serves one purpose, but that purpose is almost universally useful. During windy rides, you can wear it without overheating. Or, as the temperature falls, you can replicate the wind stopping and insulation of a $300 winter jacket by wearing it over a thermal base layer. And if you ever decide you’re overdressed, it’s so ridiculously lightweight that it can be stowed in a pocket in the collar, which can then be easily stashed in a jersey pocket.
The X-Lite’s construction is simple and effective, using two fabrics from LG’s X-Lite family. X-Lite 19 is the business end of the jacket. It’s wind resistant, has a high denier for durability, and still manages to breathe well so your wind-free microclimate doesn’t turn clammy and damp after thirty minutes in the saddle. X-Lite Mesh is a lightweight mesh designed for one thing: comfort. Well, and stretch. And breathability. OK, so it does lots of things, all of which make it the material you want for optimal ventilation, which is why LG uses panels of it for the X-Lite Jacket’s underarms.
The jacket is cut according to LG’s pro fit, which means it’s snug enough for racing and there’s no extra material to flap in the wind that it’s designed to block. The articulated elbows and stretch trim at the collar, wrists and hem mean you’ll be able to move freely in the saddle — including reaching into jersey pockets through the rear access back opening — without compromising comfort. The full-length zipper has a neck garage to eliminate chafing, a full-length flap, and reflective accents. The chest and upper back have yet more reflective elements to help keep you visible in low-light conditions.
The Louis Garneau X-Lite Jacket is available in six sizes ranging from X-Small to XX-Large in the colors Black/purple, Bright Yellow, Diva Pink, and White/black.
Not many things can cause your performance to crater quite like overheating, but the Louis Garneau Carbon Mesh Women’s Jersey is specifically designed to keep you cool and comfortable, no matter how hot the conditions are. The back and sleeves are made from CB Carbon Ion fabric, which provides incredibly accelerated moisture transfer and evaporation in areas that are most exposed to sunlight. The underarm panels are composed of Highlander mesh, which increases breathability, while the Endurexx front panel and sleeve cuffs are stretchy, supportive, and soft.
As if that wasn’t enough, Garneau also treated the CB Carbon Ion fabric with Coolblack, a reflective finish that keeps you cool, even if you’re wearing dark colors. The Carbon Mesh’s full-length front zip provides the possibility for even more ventilation, and the Aero Lazer laser-cut arm bands reduce wind resistant and prevent sleeves riding up. The aerodynamic properties of the fabric are further complemented by the slim hem gripper and sleek Racer Fit, while the Carbon’s pre-shaped shoulders keep you comfortable and bunch free when you’re over the bars. Garneau also made sure the Carbon has plenty of useful features like triple back pockets, an internal media pocket, and reflective details that will help you ride and get home safely.
Castelli revamped its revolutionary Free Aero Bib Shorts for 2015, making them even more breathable, aerodynamic, and supportive than the previous model and introducing a women-specific bib short option to the line. These bib shorts are comfy enough for a local century, with technology built to handle the toughest races or training days.
The Free Aeros are made of a blend of fabrics designed for durability and cool breathability, mixed with Lycra for a perfect balance between supportive compression and unrestricted movement. The sides and back also have surface dimpling (similar to a golf ball) meant to cut through the wind and get you down the road faster. To complete the fit, Castelli’s wide Giro Air leg bands feature a thin, mesh-like gripping surface to keep everything in place and eliminate any uncomfortable bunching or pinching — just remember to throw on some sunscreen under the leg bands to avoid getting burnt.
Castelli rounds out the Free Aero Bib Shorts with the women-specific Progetto X2 Air Donna, an antimicrobial chamois with seamless construction, four-way stretch, and a perforated foam layer for a soft, ventilated, friction-free ride.
Turn your favorite pair of unlined shorts into cycling worthy fare with the ZOIC Women’s Premium Liner Shorts. Made from stretchy yet supportive spandex, these shorts hide comfortably and unobtrusively under your outer shorts to wick moisture away in a snap.
The Ultra Liner Shorts feature an Elastic Interface Women’s Veloce chamois, with four-way stretch that moves comfortably with you and provides needed padding for 2 to 3 hour rides. Double-band stretch spandex at the waist and leg hems holds everything in place without pinching so you can focus on the ride, not your wardrobe.
Race cut fits, like that in Giordana’s FR-C line certainly have their place, but for most rides, we often prefer more of a classic fit that’s comfortable and non-restrictive. That’s exactly what you get with its SilverLine Short-Sleeve Jersey, a more relaxed fit, thanks to its Women’s Contour Fit System, along with highly technical fabrics that will have you riding at your best.
Giordana designs the paneling to hug your body while in the riding position, letting the fabrics do their work while avoiding any unnecessary drag from baggy material. This particular fit follows the female silhouette while in the saddle offering a comfortable fit and a full range of motion.
Its constructed from a soft and breathable fabric offering UV protection and antibacterial properties along with excellent wicking courtesy of its material weave. These channels transport moisture from the body to the outside where it can quickly evaporate, keeping you cooler and drier. Furthermore, breathable honeycomb mesh is utilized on the shoulders, sleeves, back, waist, and rear pockets for additional ventilation. At the rear, its three pockets feature a lip to keep snacks and flat fixing materials from exiting over rough roads.
Just down from the pockets is a 4.5cm waistband of light elastic ensuring the jersey stays in place without restriction as you raise and lower from the saddle. The jersey is finished with mesh contrasting color cuffs and collar and a color-coordinated reversed Camlock full-length zipper.
Skip the changing rooms at transitions, and power from one discipline to the next in Castelli’s Free Short Short for Women. This sleek short wraps you snugly in Instadry Speed fabric for optimum hydro-and-aerodynamics, and the short length stays comfortably out of the way when you get to the third leg. Featuring a lower waistline and shorter leg, the Free Short Short is ideal for athletes looking to minimize coverage to glide through the air and water at top speeds.
When it comes to cycling, the Free Short Short is hard to beat with its traithlon-exclusive Kiss Tri chamois that gives you a bit of sweet relief. Castelli designed the KISS Tri to work most effectively while your hips are rotated forward in an aero position on the bike while trimming unnecessary bulk to optimize comfort during the run and swim portions of your race. The removal of excess thickness also allowed Castelli to make the pad wider, thus moving stitching away from the more sensitive areas to avoid irritation. A liner on the front of the shorts adds support to make you more comfortable during the run.
When you spend more time on dirt than you do on asphalt, pick up the Patagonia Women’s Dirt Roamer Bike Short for fluid mobility, a body-contoured fit, and secure integration with Patagonia’s compatible liner shorts. As its name suggests, the Dirt Roamer excels on epic singletrack rides and lift-serviced flow trails with its nylon-spandex fabric, which offers pedal-friendly mobility and excellent breathability. Its DWR finish repels oncoming rain showers and puddle splashes from compromising your comfort.
Besides being stretchy and breathable, the Dirt Roamer Bike Shorts follow the contours of your body with its curved waistband, complete with hook-and-loop adjusters for a slip-free fit. It doesn’t come with an integrated chamois, but it’s compatible with Patagonia’s Endless Ride Liner Short (sold separately) that snaps inside for additional padding. Other key features include a secure-zip pocket for your trail essentials, plus an 11.5-inch inseam that sits just above most knee pads, as to not inhibit pedaling movement.
The Pearl Izumi Women’s Pursuit Attack 3/4 Bib Tight doesn’t require that you ride as aggressively as the name suggests, but it can keep up if you choose to. When you start ramping up your training ride, you’ll be glad you have the Select Transfer Dry fabric managing perspiration with a compressive fit that eliminates bunching. The 3/4-length is perfect for temperate rides in spring or early fall, and these knickers have a lightweight feel that allows plenty of airflow. A Select Pursuit 1:1 chamois provides some cushion with a women-specific fit, and has a brushed face for next-to-skin comfort. Pearl Izumi added a drop-seat for maximum convenience—no need to remove your jacket when nature calls. The center bib clip is adjustable, and allows you to customize exactly where your straps sit for unequivocal comfort.
Your new warm weather cycling companion is here with the Women’s Equipe 1.6 Jersey from Louis Garneau. Constructed from super soft fabric, this jersey boasts a classic silhouette and design that looks and feels great on fast weekday group rides and long solo weekend rides alike, and the technical fabrics are designed to keep you cool on the warmest rides.
Garneau utilizes its exceptionally lightweight and breathable Diamond fabric as the main material on this jersey to wick perspiration off your body and promotes evaporative cooling. Along the side panels, AirFit Mesh provides additional ventilation for impeccable moisture management. The full-length zipper lets you control airflow, while an elastic hem prevents uncomfortable bunching. Three rear pockets offer easy access to energy gels and other ride essentials, with reflective piping to increase visibility to motorists in low-light conditions.
The Women’s Equipe 1.6 Jersey is available in 6 sizes from X-Small to XX-Large and in the color Black/Purple.
When it comes to comfort for the long haul, Sportful sets the benchmark high with the new Neo Bib Short for Women. These compressive shorts offer the support you crave thanks to Elast-X 210g fabric that wrap your muscles to help prevent fatigue when the long hours take their toll on you. Targeted panels find a balance between support and resistance, focusing durability on the inseam where you need to hold up against saddle rub, and stretchy panels where comfort is a must. The bib straps feature airy mesh on the back and straps to boost breathability between your layers, allowing sweat to escape when you’re putting out your max efforts. To dial in comfort from beneath Sportful employs the Comfort Pro Women’s chamois that features a soft, elastic construction designed to move with you on the bike, multi-density foam that tapers support to the places you need it most, and a soft microfiber finish designed to fight odor so you can stay comfortable from your first to last mile.
Revolutionizing the manner in which female cyclists suit up for daily rides, the Giro Women’s Chrono Sport Halter Bib Short does away with pesky bibs in favor of a comfort-enhancing, pitstop-friendly halter strap. This innovative design not only provides the same level of support you’ve come to love from bib straps, but just as importantly, it’s much easier to handle on bathroom breaks by not requiring removal of your jersey. Suddenly, bathroom breaks are easier and more efficient, especially since you don’t have to locate a sanitary zone to place your jersey in a gas station or roadside stop bathroom.
It’s based off the supportive design of the Chrono Expert Halter Bib Short, but employs a stretchier, more forgiving fabric. Breathable mesh halter straps won’t drench you in perspiration when it’s layered under your favorite cycling jersey. And seeing that you’ll be riding long distances, the Custom Chrono Cytech chamois dissipates vibration transmitted through your stiff road frame with its thermo-bonded open cell padding that’s thickest at center, and tapers along the sides for greater mobility. This chamois is lined with a smooth microfiber that virtually eliminates chafing, then finished with a bacteriostatic treatment.
If you change out the Bliz Women’s Tempo Small Face Sunglasses’ lens, and then replace the temples with the goggle strap, is it still the same Tempo Sunglasses? All-around active adventurers, the Tempos are the lightest pair of sunglasses in the Bliz lineup. The Unbreakable Polycarbonate lenses are ten times more impact-resistant than standard plastic or glass lenses. There are grippy pads at the temples and nose that you can adjust for a secure fit, and Bliz added a top bar that wicks sweat for extra comfort. Since Bliz included a goggle strap and a bonus lens, it’s almost like you’re getting two sunglasses for the price of one.

Your mother is coming to visit, and of course, you’re only halfway through a laundry list of must-do chores you need to accomplish before her arrival. When you wake up the morning-of to clear skies, warm sun, and the buzzy energy of an early summer day, push your to-do list aside, put on the Louis Garneau Equipe Jersey, and go join your ride crew anyway.
If your calculations are correct, you’ll have just enough time to pedal one of your favorite local loops before Mom and Dad show up, and with the Equipe’s regular fit and soft, moisture-wicking fabric, you won’t look like a sweaty mess when they arrive. The jersey’s water-resistant rear pocket will protect your phone from sweat when you bring it along to keep track of your parents’ progress, and the included Enviro pocket allows you to keep trash separate from the rest of your essentials. Stash your empty gel wrappers in it to avoid greeting Mom and Dad with the sticky fingers of your five-year old self when you pull into the driveway, just in the nick of time.
Giro’s Tessa Gel LF Gloves are a gravel grinder’s best friend. They provide more protection and padding than your typical minimalistic, short-fingered race gloves, but they’re not so heavy as to preclude summertime use. They provide breathability, ventilation, and light padding to soak up gravel chatter and washboard ruckus.
When temperatures are just below that ideal temp, hit the road in the straightforward, affordable Sportful Neo Knickers. Elast-X 210g compression fabric helps to fight muscle fatigue while also allowing more than enough stretch to keep up with all of your aggressive movements in the saddle, while the partial jacquard elastic features silicone grip dots at the leg hems to keep the fit snug and secure. An impact-absorbing women’s-specific Comfort Pro seat pad soaks up harsh chatter and vibrations from the road, and flat-lock stitching on selected seams bring you smooth comfort without painful chafing. Plus, the engineers at Sportful outfitted this pair of knickers with anatomical knee support to give you a more natural range of motion without compromising stability.
Are you looking for an aerodynamic jersey with a women’s cut, and stylish flares? If so, we’d like to introduce you to the Louis Garneau Corse 2 Cycling Jersey for women. Built from the top materials for the woman who wants to save the most energy possible through aerodynamic gains, the Course 2 Cycling Jersey achieves nothing short of greatness, thanks to Louis Garneau’s collaboration with Alphamantis Aerodynamics, and the women’s development team.
The fit of the Course 2 is tailored, slim, and designed to keep you as comfortable as possible when in your riding position. Cutting slim and aerodynamic, you’ll find less fabric in the chest than you might be used to, in order to reduce air-catching wrinkles when you’re in the saddle, giving you an advantage that Louis Garneau claims can save you precious seconds when you’re hammering out the miles, without additional effort.
The Course 2 Cycling Jersey is composed of panels of three different elevated fabrics. First you’ll find CB Mondo, a micro-filament with 4-way stretch brushing against your core with exceptional softness and comfort, next Vector Skin wraps your shoulders, sides, and chest. Vector Skin is embossed to increase aerodynamics, offering compression to keep your muscles supported, while wicking moisture away to keep you dry. Mesh WB panels your back, with 4-way stretch for comfort and exceptional ventilation. The back is also treated with Coldback, for UV reflection that keeps your core cool, so you can perform at your max.
Perforated rear grippers hold the jersey securely in place along your shorts, so that fabric doesn’t slip during a critical effort. Stash the ever essential nutrition and spare tube in three floating back pockets that reduce tension on the jersey, and are easy to access when filled. A separate multimedia pocket can stash away your race radio, or your tunes when you need a little musical motivation to put forth the extra effort during the last grueling miles. If your ride carries on into the dark, HiViz 360 reflective accents will illuminate under light to keep you visible to motorists who rush by, helping to keep you safe.
