Cycling Apparel:
The advancements in textile technology for the cycling apparel industry have changed the way cyclists dress for all weather conditions. On hot summer days the choice for cycling apparel is either a pair of cycling shorts or bib shorts and a short sleeve jersey. On a fall or early spring day, the choice of cycling apparel might be cycling knickers, shorts or bib shorts with knee warmers, a long sleeve jersey or short sleeve jersey with arm warmers, and possible a base layer underneath your cycling jersey. In the winter cycling apparel takes the shape of shoe covers, cycling tights or bib tights, long sleeve jerseys, base layer, jackets, and headwear underneath your helmet. Every article of clothing made for cycling, all seasons included, is made to do something; wick moisture away from your skin on a hot summer day, keep the wind from penetrating through the clothing, shield the rain, reduce muscle fatigue, and many other functions that sound like they would benefit an astronaut more than a cyclist. All of the described functions do exist is current cycling apparel items, and they perform as well as they should.

Finding the correct cycling apparel items for your needs can be cumbersome. A good place to start is evaluating the overall purpose of the item; keep you dry during a downpour, warm on a winter ride, or cool on a hot day. Knowing whether to purchase a cycling jersey compared to a cycling jacket is one thing, but understanding the features and benefits between two similar short sleeve jerseys is completely different. Questions to address for purchasing a short sleeve jersey scenario would be the range of temperatures you’re going to be exposed to, the amount of sunlight, the typical length of ride you’ll be doing, and the aesthetic properties of the cycling jersey. Typically, it is most common to choose a pair of bib shorts or jersey based on its appearance when you should really be looking at the properties and features of it. This is true for all cycling apparel items, not solely jerseys. It will surprise you how many variations of each apparel line is available and how they can make your cycling experience more enjoyable.
