This article focuses on general strategies for biking clothing. In addition to cycling specific apparel, cyclists should also consider other factors that might affect their overall comfort, safety and visibility while cycling. In addition to ensuring proper ventilation, bike-specific clothing should be breathable. The following guide describes the various types of biking clothing, including men’s, women’s, and children’s.
For warmth and breathability, a cycling jacket is a must-have. While standard jackets are a good choice in cold weather, a gilet is an excellent choice for spring and autumn. Gilets are a great layer to pair with a long-sleeved jersey. Gillets are also made of breathable, waterproof fabrics. Cycling socks are made from thin materials, with a thick sole for padding. A gilet is also an essential part of any cycling outfit, and many cyclists switch to Merino wool in winter.
A cycling jacket is often shaped like a regular one, but its main purpose is to keep you warm while riding. Gilets are a good option for colder weather, and can be styled to look like a standard jacket. A gilet can also be worn in warmer weather, and can be made of breathable and waterproof fabrics. As for the socks, most cycling apparel is made of thin materials and have a thick sole. For warmth, cycling socks are available in a variety of styles and price ranges.
