How to wash your kit like a pro

Treat your sportswear like it’s your most loyal cycling mate—it deserves a first-class ride even when you’re not riding. Carry your kit carefully and store it properly (no tossing in a random bag like yesterday’s leftovers). Not only will this keep your gear looking fresh and snazzy, but it also extends its lifespan, ensuring you’re always geared up for your next epic adventure. Remember, a well-cared-for kit is a happy kit—and a happy kit means more miles of smiles! Preparing the Garments:Before placing your sportswear in the washing machine, ensure there are no pump, multitool broken spoke, banana, any sharp elements, or other objects that could damage the fabric in the drum.Empty and fasten all pockets. Tie any strings and zip up all zippers. Type of Detergents:If the garment has a membrane, use only detergents designed for technical sportswear.When possible, opt for hand washing, especially for delicate items.For light stains, avoid using detergents or fabric softeners. Washing Settings:Use a gentle cycle to preserve the elasticity of the materials.Maximum washing temperature: 40°C (104°F).Always wash with similar colors and turn garments inside out.If a protective laundry bag is provided, always use it during washing. After Washing:Avoid tumble drying.Do not iron, dry clean, chlorinate, or bleach the sportswear.Occasionally run an empty cycle in the washing machine to remove any detergent residues.

In England alone, approximately 7.4 million people participated in cycling, either for sport, leisure or travel, in 2023 according to Statista.

If so, then you are in the right place. We aim to provide a few reasons why it would be good to consider adding a few cycling jerseys to your wardrobe. Cycling jerseys are more than just a piece of clothing – they represent a passion for cycling and a love of the sport. For many cycling enthusiasts, a jersey is a symbol of their dedication and commitment to the sport. Whether you are a competitive rider or a casual weekend warrior, a cycling jersey is a way to show off your love for cycling and to feel connected to the larger cycling community. Here, we’ll go through a few reasons why it is that you should consider buying a cycling jersey.  1. Temperature & Comfort Beyond their symbolic value, cycling jerseys also serve a practical purpose. Designed specifically for cycling, jerseys which are made from lightweight, breathable materials help to regulate body temperature and keep riders comfortable during long rides. Many jerseys also feature moisture-wicking properties to help keep riders dry and comfortable, even on the hottest days. This is especially important for longer trips and races where that additional comfort will get you the extra mile.  2. Safety The benefits of buying a cycling jersey goes beyond comfort. They are also an important safety feature, helping to make riders more visible on the road. With bright, vibrant colours and reflective accents, cycling jerseys can help to improve visibility and reduce the risk of accidents.  3. Love of Cycling For many cycling enthusiasts, owning a custom cycling jersey or a collection of cycling jerseys is a source of pride and a way to celebrate their love for the sport. Whether you are new to cycling or have been riding for years, a cycling jersey is a must-have for any serious rider. It’s a way to show off your passion for cycling and to feel connected to the larger cycling community.   4. Show some personality Make yourself stand out from the rest with a jersey that reflects you. There are so many different colours, designs and sizes to choose from that it offers you that extra customisation to fit your style. Maybe you prefer sleek solid colours or a majestic blend of colours, there is something out there to work for you.
