Keeping cool is key to maintaining performance when riding during summer heatwaves and hitting long mountain climbs. The PRR Stars Cycling Jersey tackles this via the use of 3D "Wide weave" mesh fabrics for both the front panel and a back insert. This lightweight material optimises ventilation to boost cooling via moisture evaporation while also wicking sweat off the skin so you're not left feeling damp once you've crested a tough climb and are sweeping back downhill. As befits the pro-race PRR range, the fit is tailored to be close to the body and streamlined. A silicone band at the waist keeps the fit snug as you get low into the drops. A smooth fabric is used for the sleeves, and with their die-cut finish, they ensure smooth airflow and a comfortable fit. Lastly, bonded technology keeps seams both smooth and aerodynamic.
Worn on their own or paired with knee or leg warmers, the Clima Winter Bibshorts can see you comfortable through a wide range of riding conditions in winter as well as through the seasons of spring and autumn. Thanks to the Windtex Pro membrane, heat-stealing cold winds can't get through to your legs and the external water-repellent treatment increases your comfort when light rain or showers appear. While warmth is kept inside, sweat is able to escape easily, so when you're putting in hard efforts and hitting tough climbs you're not left feeling cold and clammy at the end. Men's 8HF seat pad Inside the shorts you'll find Ale's exemplary “8HF” pad - this utilises an elastic microfibre with memory padding, strategically positioned at the saddle contact points for maximum comfort. In the perineal and ischiatic area, the higher density padding ensures optimal support against bumps and vibrations. Elsewhere, the central relief channel is designed to protect the nerve endings while the lateral-shaped wings are flexible to follow the body for complete support and comfort when pedalling, ideal for even the longest of winter base mile rides.
From high-intensity training sessions in spring through to more steady-paced rides as summer turns to the cool of autumn, the Klimatik K-IDRO CyclingJersey will keep you protected from cold winds, light rain and sudden showers. The combination of Acquazero/Thermoacquazero water-resistant fabrics means you can ride longer in the wet before needing to pull on a hardshell rain jacket. A full-length front zip makes it easy to regulate airflow, and it has an inner windshield to prevent cold air from seeping in when you're zipped up. A tall collar prevents cold winds from getting inside too. And with its racing fit, you'll enjoy smooth and streamlined progress as you put the power down.
Taking three highly functional fabrics, textured Micro Piquet, plus Piuma and Air, Ale creates their lightweight Women's Solid Blend Jersey. Exquisite comfort and exceptional moisture management are key characteristics you'll enjoy as summer heat arrives. As temperatures and the pace starts to rise, any excess sweat is soon dealt with, wicked away where it can evaporate off the jersey surface, leaving you dry and comfortable no matter how hard you're pedalling. The performance fit of the Solid jersey offers a touch more room than their race fit garments, making it perfect for any size and shape of rider and for those of you who value all-day comfort and freedom of movement above pure aerodynamic considerations. Open mesh die-cut sleeves are a nod to smooth airflow but it's the comfort and breathability they give that really counts. A silicone waist gripper provides a flush fit with your shorts and a smooth-running zipper makes it easy to control ventilation when the road climbs and scorching heat arrives.
Autumn and spring training can see you ticking off steady base-building rides mixed in with higher intensity efforts as you build fitness for summer. And when you add varying temperatures to the mix, getting your kit choice just right can be tricky. But with the Solid Thorn Long Sleeved Cycling Jersey, you have a top that deals extremely well with this variety. Thanks to the Thermo Piquet 200 fabric you'll enjoy excellent warmth when it comes to those slower, steadier rides in cooler temperatures. However, if and when you face stiff headwinds, steep climbs and hard intervals, the sweat you inevitably generate is quickly dealt with. Moisture is drawn off the skin so as to prevent discomfort and the fabric is quick-drying too - as the pace settles down again, you won't feel cold and clammy. The performance fit of the jersey keeps wind resistance to a minimum while still offering plenty of flexibility to move about your bike. The slimmer fit also makes it easy to use as a mid-layer under a winter/rain jacket.
The Sombra Wool Cycling Socks mix Wool fibres with Dryarn, creating socks that provide reliable insulation against the cold while also offering excellent breathability.
While the Logo 18cm Cycling Socks keep your feet protected from cold temperatures the benefits also extend to keeping your feet sweat-free thanks to their ability to rapidly draw moisture off the skin before you feel discomfort. The result is warm and fresh feet when you're cycling during the colder months of the year.

You don't always want or need to resort to covering the legs when temperatures head down, particularly in the transitional seasons of autumn and spring or when riding at high intensities. The Solid Blend Winter Cycling Bib Shorts offer the freedom of wearing shorts into cooler months of the year where the added warmth is a major plus. The SuperRoubaix fabric used here is not only great at holding on to warmth but it breathes remarkably well too - this gives greater comfort in a wide range of temperatures. Men's 4HF Seat Pad These winter shorts use Ale's renowned 4HF seat pad, designed for rides of up to 4 hours. Constructed with an elastic microfiber and anatomically shaped for the utmost freedom of movement it's ideally suited to medium to long-distance training rides and racing. The support is strategically positioned in the key saddle contact points, 90 kg/cm² density padding in the perineal and ischiatic area, making for an incredibly comfortable feel.
It's Time to Shine on the Bike It's the microspheres of glass that give the Iridescent Reflective Cycling Gilet it's remarkable visibility after dark. Once caught in headlamps or under street lights these beads 'light up' so the jacket has a glow that catches the attention of other road users. It's a unique finish that has a distinctive 'oil slick' look during the day and brilliantly illuminated performance to keep you safe and seen on dark roads. Dazzling Windproof Protection Too It's not just about visibility though, the windproof fabric also ensures cold winds can't penetrate, leaving you nicely insulated against cold winds out on the road. Of course, when you're cycling you'll generate some sweat but thanks to breathable mesh zones you'll find yourself comfortable and dry as sweat has an easy escape route to the outside. The performance fit is close to the body but still allows easy movement and space for you to layer up underneath your jacket. Thanks to Ale's IIridescent Reflective Cycling Gilet you've got stunning style and performance during the day and gleaming reflectivity at night, keeping you safe and seen as you knock out hard training sessions during the darker days of autumn and winter.
With a windproof and waterproof eVent Exagon membrane and insulating inner zipped 'vest' panel, the Women's PRS Bridge Cycling Jacket is adept at dealing with ever-changing winter weather conditions and for the coldest of days on the bike. The jacket has a unique construction. Providing protection against cold and wet conditions is the eVent Exagon membrane. This is paired with an inner insulating Thermo Fleece 'vest' chest panel and areas of highly breathable fabrics where needed most. This combination allows for versatile weather protection and easy control of heat regulation. Unzipping the outer zipper allows you to increase cooling air circulation through the jacket, ideal when you're working hard to crest a hill climb or facing into a headwind. However, with the outer zip open and its separate inner thermal layer zipped up, you'll still keep a chill off your chest while still boosting ventilation. eVent DV Stretch Technology This laminated water-repellent and windproof membrane give the Storm Combi Cycling Jacket its outstanding all-weather performance, blocking wind and keeping you dry during periods of light rain and sudden showers. Its high degree of breathability also prevents water vapour build-up on the inside when you're pedalling hard or conditions improve. The internal 'Wave' structure also draws sweat off the skin and effective air chambers regulate body temperature. Racing Fit The fit of the jacket is tailored to be close to the body and streamlined. This increases your cycling efficiency, saving precious energy for those last few kilometres of winter base rides.
From the speed and excitement of a gravel race to the challenges of a multi-day bikepacking trip to the thrills of mountain bike trails, the Off-Road Rondane Cycling Jersey keeps you cycling comfortably no matter what. Textiles have been chosen to make sure you enjoy excellent moisture control. A quick-wicking front prevents you from getting drenched in sweat. Meanwhile, the ultralight mesh back allows for ventilation and breathability. And if you wear a backpack, it lessens sweat build up too. Across the shoulders, you'll find abrasion-resistant inserts. This is again for backpack wearers, preventing rubbing from straps as you move and manoeuvre across rough terrain. A total of 5 pockets, a combination of open and zipped, make space for plenty of essentials you want to keep close to hand.
