The New Road Story See the Product ▻Bikes are bigger than any one style. There are as many kinds of riders as there are styles of riding. In the past, a racing kit defined most cycling apparel options. But modern riders demand clothes that work the way they ride, clothes for the road, trail, path and park—sometimes all in the same day. Clean-lined, multidimensional and ready to ride, new road is designed for the way you ride, however you describe it.

Fit. Fabric. Fabrication. When these things work in harmony, clothing transforms from simple material into a passport to new experiences. The new road collection is inspired by american heritage. Soft, textured fabrics from before the era of uniform finishes. Simple silhouettes that perform across a range of environments while maintaining understated style. New road clothing is designed and made for the ride, whatever its pace, look or final destination.
Sewn In California. Creating cycling clothes in a new way means looking at where they are manufactured. Sewn in our home state, the california collection takes its name from where it’s made. Its domestic production creates jobs, keeps money in the community, reduces the environmental impact of shipping and brings us closer to the process in every way. It’s more than the tangible benefits, though, that make the difference. The “sewn in california” tag tells a story, and it’s one we’re proud of.
Merino wool is not a new performance fabric. It’s the original performance fabric. Merino’s refined look and ability to perform at the highest levels, without compromising its aesthetic appeal or comfort, sets it apart from every synthetic fabric on the market. Merino also lends itself to a tailored approach to fit and fabrication, something that’s at the heart of the new road viewpoint.

Skeletal Pockets
Integrated into the garment’s construction, this reinforcement tape adds structure to support weight from items in rear pockets while minimizing sagging in the fiber, a common problem in wool cycling jerseys.
Tailored Stretch
Gusseted seams expand to allow a more comforatble fit across the back while in the riding position, but contract back to normal while off the bike for a tailored fit.
Shoulder Seam Vents
In our Merino Polo and Merino Jersey, we have placed carefully designed shoulder vents that channel air when in motion but lay flat when off the bike.
Pockets And Fly
Rear stowage pockets keep your cargo close to the body and secure. Front fly access for easier nature breaks.
The Giro System Zip
The System Zip is found on most of our jackets and jerseys. It allows easy access to rear storage pockets built into our Bib UnderShort. This unique approach keeps ride essentials secure and close to the body and delivers a true blend of storage functionality and clean aesthetics.
Good design is invisible until it’s needed, and then it should surprise with its efficiency. The new road collection was created to work together holistically, yet every item performs on its own. Specific features like the system zip keep ride essentials secure, with zippered access ports to inner layers for no-hassle access to your gear. Structured seam tape keeps merino wool in shape when stowing gear in jersey pockets. Shoulder vents take advantage of forward motion to keep you cool. Bib shorts feature a working fly. The details are the design.
The new road collection is part of redefining what it means to make riding the core of one’s experience. From road to restaurant, parkway to pub, course to coffee shop, new road ensures cyclists are as comfortable on the ride as they are at the destination.
But don’t take our word for it. Take a look at the new road in action.

The Ride Jersey offers the soft, supple feel of Merino blended with just enough polyester to improve performance.
Because simple is never easy, we focused on the details in this staple piece: fit and fabric.
