Tightening Type

A product’s ability to protect against the cold depends on its thermal resistance and breathability. The higher the thermal resistance, the more body heat it retains while you ride.
During intense rides, perspiration on your hands can make them feel cold. We therefore recommend exercising at a moderate intensity in cold weather.

Product warmth

Waterproofness is a fabric’s ability to prevent rainwater from soaking through. 
Water repellency refers to a fabric’s ability to make water bead off its surface without being absorbed. The fabric soaks up little or no moisture, dries more quickly, and remains light. Water repellency also helps keep the outer surface cleaner.
Water repellency is obtained by applying a treatment to the fabric's external surface.
This product is not waterproof!

Water repellent component

Machine wash at 30°C. Synthetic cycle. Use minimal laundry detergent. Do not add fabric softener. Hang to dry in a warm, well-ventilated area. Do not tumble dry. Do not dry clean. Do not bleach. Do not place on a heater to dry.

Our team of product designers based at the B'Twin Village in Lille is continuously working to make cycling more comfortable for our users. Our obsession is to create products that meet the specific cycling needs of our users and eliminate hindrances to a good cycling experience.
We then test our products in the field, as we are convinced that only by subjecting them to real world conditions, like the ones you experience on your bike, can we continuously improve our products.

Top Shape

To determine a fabric’s breathability, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower its resistance, the more perspiration escapes and the more breathable it is. •	RET < 6: extremely breathable, suitable for intense workouts
•	RET 6 to 12: very breathable, designed for moderate exercise
•	RET 12 to 20: average breathability, not comfortable for intense exercise
• RET >20: little breathability, inappropriate for exercise

Hood

Sometimes being bold means being different. At Van Rysel, we are driven by performance. That means keeping you warm without compromising performance.
No compromises on warmth with Kima Toplight, a thin, light, windproof material. No compromises on breathability with Matrix, a highly breathable material used on the upper back and underarms. No compromises on aerodynamics with this thin, close-fitting jacket with a long-tail design.

Bold design choices

Pro Fit is a cycling garment design from Van Rysel. It’s made for high-performance cyclists who want cycling clothes that are close-fitting but not constricting.
This jacket is designed to be worn over a technical base layer. If you plan on wearing it over two layers, we recommend buying one size larger than usual.

Our Pro Fit design is for those who cycle regularly. If you think you might need a jacket with a bit more volume, buy one size larger than usual.

What is the Pro Fit design?

This jacket stands out.

- A flap for the lower zipper so that it doesn’t damage your cycling tights. 
- A flap for the top zipper so that it doesn’t irritate your neck. 
- Soft sleeves with elastic cuffs
- Small cords on the zippers to make it easier to grab them when wearing gloves

Details that make the difference

This jacket is made with 7 pockets. 
Two small side pockets that can also serve to store trash.
A set of 5 back pockets that include:
- 2 pockets for snacks or small items 
- 1 zippered pocket for phone/key/card 
- 1 net pocket for gloves, hat, or other accessories

100% Polyester 
RET < 12, and an air permeability rating of 4/5.
Main component: 185 g/m²

Technical specifications

These two jackets are very different. The Racer weighs 340 g (12 oz), whereas the Racer Xtrem weighs 680 g (24 oz). 
The Racer is a close-fitting jacket that is very effective for riding in spring, autumn, or mild winter weather. But in temperatures below 7°C, it reaches its limits, and that is when we turn to the Racer Xtrem.

These jackets are water-repellent, not waterproof, so we recommend taking an ultralight rain jacket if there is a chance of rain.

Which jacket should you choose, Racer or Racer Xtrem? 

In order to keep your jacket looking impeccable year after year, we recommend you machine wash it in a 30°C synthetic cycle. Close the zippers before washing your jacket.
Don't tumble dry, and don't use fabric softener! Don't dry clean it either.
Hang dry in a well ventilated area.

These cool weather leg warmers are made using a seamless knitting technique, making them thinner and lighter. They let much more air through than a cold weather pair of leg warmers. We recommend wearing cool weather leg warmers in temperatures ranging from 10°C to 16°C. 
Our cold weather arm warmers are made from "Super Roubaix" fabric, which we use for our winter shorts. This fabric is very warm. For temperatures between 7°C and 14°C

These products are complementary.
Toe covers give you more freedom and are much easier to put on and remove, but only work down to temperatures of 8–9°C.
Being both easy to use and compact makes them a popular choice with cyclists.

Overshoes or toe covers?

The easiest way is to slide your fingers over the instep of your shoe to separate the two. Then slide your fingers around under your shoe to pull the cover off over the cleat. And you’re done!

Taking your toe covers off

Main fabric: Rubber
Inner fabric: Polyamide.
Outer fabric: PU (polyurethane).

What we call neoprene is in fact a foam sandwiched between two layers. The outer layer is what makes the toe covers windproof and waterproof. The thickness of the foam (2–5 mm) helps keep you warm.

To stop your feet from getting cold, you need good blood flow.
If you tighten your shoes too much, you will restrict blood flow to your feet, making them feel cold. Very thick winter shoes can also squeeze your feet inside your shoes.

It’s often the wind that makes you feel cold, so it’s a good idea to use a windproof toe cover.

Tips to stop your feet from getting cold

Cycling Shoes

Increases thermal comfort at the beginning of a ride in cool weather.

Anatomic design

Developed and tested by our engineers for cold temperatures, these leg warmers are ideal when cycling shorts aren't quite enough.

A product's ability to offer protection from the cold. It depends on the material's thermal resistance and how much air can pass through it. The higher its thermal resistance, the more the product retains the heat produced by the body while cycling.

To determine whether a fabric is breathable, we measure its evaporative resistance (test based on standard ISO 11092). 
The lower its resistance, the more the fabric will let water vapour produced by the body escape, and therefore the more breathable it is. 
For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric

Machine wash at 30°C. Synthetic cycle. Turn the garment inside out. Use minimal laundry detergent. Do not add softener. Line dry in a warm, ventilated area. Do not tumble dry. Do not dry clean. Do not bleach. Do not place on a heater to dry.

Compact design

These arm warmers can be worn with a short-sleeved jersey to protect your arms during rides in cool weather. They’re compact and easy to store in your jersey pocket.

These cool weather arm warmers are made with a seamless knit process, so they are thinner and lighter. They have a much greater air permeability than cold weather arm warmers. For temperatures from 10°C to 16°C, we recommend cool weather arm warmers. 
Cold weather arm warmers are made with Super Roubaix, a fabric also used for our winter cycling shorts. It is a warm fabric. For temperatures from 7°C to 14°C, we recommend cold weather arm warmers.
