Cycling vests (or cycling gilets) are one of the most versatile items in your riding wardrobe. This humble piece of cycling kit carries you through the seasons. A cycling vest takes that early morning chill out of spring or autumn rides. Equally, it can be rolled into the back of your Cycling Jerseys pocket and pulled out during a freak summer storm. Finally, it's a great addition over a winter cycling jacket when you're toughing it out during the harshest, most hard-core days. Indeed, it's weather like that when you need a hi vis cycling vest, so you're easy to be seen. We have a great selection of men's and women's cycling vests.

Common Questions

What is the purpose of a cycling vest?

Cycling vests are designed to regulate the core temperature while allowing more exposure to the arms. This makes it ideal as a trans-seasonal piece of kit when it’s not cold enough to rug up completely, or not warm enough to remove all the layers.
