Properly fitted cycling clothing will help you go faster by ensuring you are not wasting energy as you ride. The most important factor is that cycling clothing is more aerodynamic than regular clothing, as it has a tight fit there is no extra fabric creating resistance against the breeze.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the summer season is upon us and local restrictions have lifted, you will want to ride for longer now, or, for that road racer in you, want to start riding faster. Picking the right cycling clothes is vital to keep as comfortable as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong> What are things to consider in a cycling clothing? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are 6 key areas for this to keep you comfortable for longer!<\/p>\n<h3>Bike Helmets<\/h3>\n<p>A good cycling helmet will be light, well ventilated and aerodynamic. Generally, the more you pay for a helmet, the more of each of these characteristics you will get. Cycling on a warm summers day, having a well ventilated helmet makes all the difference and will be cool and comfortable. We have a range of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/collection\/mips-helmets\"> MIPS helmets <\/a> in both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/rider-protection\/helmets\"> adults cycle helmets <\/a> and\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/rider-protection\/helmets\/kids\"> childrens helmets <\/a> also.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clearfix\" style=\"text-align: center;padding: 5px 0 10px\"><span style=\"margin: 10px 5px\"> \u00a0 <a class=\"button lane-btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/rider-protection\/helmets\/onsale\"> Helmets Clearance Sale <\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<h3>BIKE SHORTS<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 600px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2025\/04\/6116_2325_0988_lady-on-bike.jpg\" alt=\"lady-on-bike.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/> Shorts made specifically for cycling will give you the most comfort while riding, especially if you are going to spend a significantly proportion of your day off or weekend on a tiny saddle! All the brands we supply are designed to be stretchy to give you that freedom of movement and most come with a built-in padded liner providing extra cushion. This helps eliminates friction and help reduce moisture.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Top tip: <\/strong><br \/>\nBib shorts do not come up as high, making them ideal on hot days to stay cooler.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 600px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2025\/04\/1816_2325_0992_men-in-jersey.jpg\" alt=\"men-in-jersey.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"450\" \/> BIKE JERSEYS<\/h3>\n<p>A short-sleeve, moisture-wicking bike jersey is a great choice on a warm day. For easy access to snacks, money, or your phone to change playlists, it\u2019s worth considering a jersey that has pockets in the back. For when you work up a sweat, select a with a front zipper to help cool you down. A collar can also be a small but effective piece of clothing! By turning it up, you get instant shade for your neck.<\/p>\n<p>As we are never far away from a downpour in the UK, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/clothing\/jackets-and-gilets\"> cycling jackets UK <\/a><\/p>\n<h3>BIKE SOCKS<\/h3>\n<p>Possibly one of the most overlooked pieces of kit! Socks help prevent blisters when spending long periods in the saddle. They also add some element of road safety with most brands utilising bold reflective fibres to provide you with an extra level of visibility out on the roads.<\/p>\n<h3>BIKE GLOVES<\/h3>\n<p>In warm weather, gloves with cut out fingers are great for moisture absorption \u2013 this helps your hands to not slip from excess sweat on your handlebars. Gloves are a great way to ward off wind chill in the extremities that are exposed to the elements as well as improving grip, absorbing road shock, and helping cushion the ulnar nerves so your hands do not go numb.<\/p>\n<h3>CYCLING EYEWEAR<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 600px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2025\/04\/1916_2325_0995_s-works-helmet.jpg\" alt=\"s-works-helmet.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/> Choosing the right sunglasses play a pivotal part when it comes to keeping your vision clear and your eyes free of grit, debris, and the UK rain. Cycling sunglasses from Tifosi, Endura and Smith have become just as much of a fashion statement as functional items, but their primary role is protection. We would recommend that you test fit a pair to ensure a snug and comfortable fit at the shops (Covid permitting).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong> HOW TO CHOOSE CLOTHES FOR CYCLING? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We have a great clothing\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/clothing-sizing-guide\"> sizing guide section <\/a> , including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edinburghbicycle.com\/info\/clothing-sizing-guide\/altura\"> Altura size guide <\/a> that will help you get the right fit for your body.
