Which cycling clothing in winter?
The right cycling clothing in winter is essential to stay warm and dry even in cold temperatures. It is particularly important to use several layers. Driving heats up your body, but as soon as you stop, it can quickly get cold. The first layer should be tight-fitting and wick sweat away from the body to prevent you from cooling down. A good choice here are breathable and quick-drying materials such as merino wool or synthetic fibers. Our Ritual Series Performance Baselayer is ideal for this. A warming insulation layer such as a long-sleeve jersey or a fleece sweater is suitable for the second layer. These keep the heat close to the body and are still breathable to prevent sweating. As a third layer, we recommend a windproof and waterproof jacket, such as the Signature Series Thermal Bike Jacket , to protect against wind and rain.
When choosing trousers, you should also pay attention to windproof and waterproof materials in order to be protected from cold and wet conditions. In addition, warming underpants or long functional underwear can be worn.
In addition to the layers, you should also pay attention to the choice of gloves, hat/beanie and shoes as well as overshoes. Windproof and waterproof clothing is also recommended here to protect yourself from wet and cold.
Overall, it's better to be dressed a little too warm than too cold. With the right cycling clothing, nothing stands in the way of a bike tour even in winter.
