The Giara jersey has been designed for riders who want an elegant style when hitting rough gravel roads and tracks. With its toned-down styling that doesn’t scream “bike racer,” it’s at home on epic all-day rides but also doesn’t look out of place as you pedal out of the city. The Giara gets a casual performance cut and subtle styling that easily adapts to asphalt, gravel or coffee stops and works perfectly with race or baggy shorts - it's style with substance.

Like a favourite pair of jeans, sometimes garments with a 'lived in' look are just better, more distinct and more stylish, and with their Women's Monocrom Jersey Sportful have set out to replicate that unique look you normally only get with some wear. Using a garment dye process over a technical white fabric the Monocrom Jersey gets colour imperfections and flaws unique to each garment that lends the aged look Sportful are after and gives you a jersey that catches the eye. Sportful uses a high stretch fabric and tailors the jersey with their regular fit, a shape designed to give more space and mobility than a full race cut and more forgiving of us cyclists who aren't a World Tour pro and enjoy a healthy portion of carbs before and after our rides. With a silicone waist gripper, the jersey sits snugly in place and won't ride up or sag when you're riding.
It can be hard to choose the right kit when cycling, and that is particularly true during autumn and spring when the weather is fickle, sunshine one minute and a sharp rain shower the next. However thanks to the Fiandre No Rain 2 Bib Shorts you're nicely covered whatever the weather. Made from NoRain Thermal fabric, these shorts are warm and fleecy on the inside while Nanotechnology on the outside will keep the rain out for longer than your standard shorts. Sportful have also minimised the number of seams used so water has an even harder time of getting inside. Mesh bib straps let sweat escape and contribute to a dry and comfortable feel even if you are pushing the pace harder. You'll also benefit from the inclusion of the Total Comfort Pro pad inside. Taking all the innovations from the Total Comfort pad, Sportful reduces the padding depth slightly, making the pad suited to riders who prefer a thinner feel. You still get incredible comfort and support but with a touch less bulk - ideal for experienced riders on a multi-day tour or tackling long-distance training rides. Perfect on their own when riding on mild but damp days or paired with knee or leg warmers as the temperatures cool, the Fiandre No Rain 2 Bib Shorts are a great addition to any keen cyclists' kit bag.
Constructed from a four-way stretch fabric, the Women's Giara Over Shorts have a tailored cut that's not too tight but then again not too baggy so you'll have easy pedalling on the bike and smooth style when you're off it. The Giara shorts also feature a DWR treatment keeping dust, dirt and splashes at bay. Off the bike, style is taken care of with jean style pockets and belt loops so you can wear them around town and not look 'bikey' but on the bike, the excellent breathability keeps you fresh as you head off to enjoy some gravel roads and flowing trails.
Using their vast experience in designing and producing high-end racing products, Sportful have created the Women's Neo Shorts, a short designed for keen amateur riders who want incredible performance but at a great price. The shorts are made with Elast-X fabric, a top-quality material which compresses your muscles to encourage blood flow, working to speed up oxygen to the muscles and flushing out waste as you put in lung-busting efforts. On the inner thighs, a breathable but highly wear resistant fabric boosts both comfort and durability and a deep waistband with high stretch front allows easy breathing and a pinch-free fit. The women's specific Comfort Pro seat pad used for the Women's Neo Shorts is more commonly found in Sportful's higher priced race shorts, but here adds to the incredible value and performance on offer. It's now softer and more elastic than ever, offering a surprising level of comfort with minimal bulk while the infinitely variable thickness of support maximises comfort, placing thicker cushioning where it's needed most. A redesigned shape and seamless construction improve flexibility so the pad moves with the body, working to eliminate chafing and a new microfiber fabric cover is incredibly soft and smooth against the skin, with an antibacterial surface treatment to ensure freshness from first pedal stroke to last.
If you're racing and training in damp conditions, then you definitely want to pull on the Speedskin Silicone Booties, they're designed to keep rain out and ensure slippery aerodynamics is kept to the fore. The silicone lycra fabric and high cut of the booties give them a smooth and slippery passage through the air while reduced seams and a sealed ankle seam lessens the chance of water ingress. A YKK rear zipper makes the booties easier to get on and off at the start and end of your training session or race.
