Being supported by a fantastic cycling clothing brand has always been important to me. I'm quire particular about the styling, aesthetics and quality of the kit that I wear. What started out as an agreement to wear the kit soon evolved into a firm friendship with Jimmi and Emily, founders of Attacus, who have been with me pretty much from the start of my adventures.
Attacus have just recently released their winter collection
The collection consists of 3 major pieces and a redefined Dark Dagger Vest.
The thermal winter tights have:
Windproof, showerproof thermal stretch fabric that’s soft and comfortable. It’ll keep you warm on the coldest of days and dry in light showers
Double-layered knee panels specially designed to move effortlessly with your natural riding motion and keep your joints extra toasty
High-waisted bibs to keep your core warm
High-performance endurance chamois provides lasting comfort over long rides
Reflective 'Attacus' logo and chevron bands for visibility in the road
Silicone leg grippers that’ll slide over even the biggest feet and keep your tights in place without the discomfortable of rigid ankle zips
Tailor-cut for cyclists so you’re comfortable and have full protection against the elements when you’re in a riding position
I remember when Jimmi first showed me the Cold Weather Jacket. I think my first reaction was basically 'YES' I fell in love with the prototype before I had even seen the final design. The blue colour, is pretty much my favourite shade. The inside of the jacket has a bold peacock pattern to it and the jacket features rear pockets, reflective logos and a waterproof front pocket, perfect to keep your cards and cash in.
The jacket has:
Windproof, showerproof, stretch fabric that’ll keep you warm in strong wind and dry in light showers
Insulated materials that can withstand the coldest days
Soft, breathable lining for added warmth and comfort
Waterproof zips
3 back pockets
100% waterproof, zipped chest pocket
Two reflective logos, plus reflective pocket and wrist strips for extra visibility in the road
Tailor-cut for cyclists so you’re comfortable and have full protection against the elements when you’re in a riding position
Silicon gripper waist band - because the only thing riding up should be you
