Cycling clothes during Winter

When the lockdown was lifted in India, people went crazy towards fitness
due to the weight gain during the lockdown. We all felt to adopt a new habit by
waking up early in the morning and when we thought of morning fitness, the
vintage cycling habit came across, and surely you have missed that joy of biking at
a young age. It is obvious that cycles are the solution to our fitness and joy after
the lockdown and with the work from home facilities provided by the companies.
You all saved the time of commuting to the office and did spend time cycling in
the summertime and clothes are not the concern during summer while you went for
cycling. But do you know how to layer up yourself with the right clothes during
winter? If not, this article is for you. Read on to know about the best cycling layers
to wear in winter.

Base Layers
The foundation of your protection is your base clothes, you have to be very
attentive when you are going with the base layers. You should take extra care
because the base layers will be touching your skin, and you don’t want to get
infections from artificial fabrics. When it comes to cycling, you should always go
with merino wool that keeps you warm and healthy skin during the winters. It also
helps you to wick sweat and also gives you extra comfort by its flexible nature, as
it doesn’t make you feel you are wearing a skin-tight outfit.

Tights
The tights are very common and flexible for cycling on any occasion. The
simple solution to keep you warm is to go for Lycra fabric material to keep you
comfortable throughout the cycling session. It is not expensive and can be your
cycling companion for a longer time, but wash it with the recommendation of the
manufacturer guidelines.

Waterproof Jacket, Hat, Shoes & Gloves


During winter, it is very dangerous to expose your sensitive parts to weather.
It is mandatory to protect your feet, hands by the cycling gears. Wear suitable
jogger shoes to your feet along with cotton socks that help for easy cycling by
protecting your feet from cold. Choose the woolen or cotton gloves for your cycle
ride, only these two materials will give you comfort and a joyous ride in the winter
morning. It is always said that listening to music while workouts boost your
endurance and wearing a cool earphone while cycling helps you from cold. We all
know winter makes us a little lazy, and music also help you to push for an extra
mile while cycling.
