Arm warmers, leg warmers and shoe covers for bicycles
When you go out cycling, the weather is often uncertain or changeable, especially in mid-season, and you don't know how to dress... So cycling arm warmers and leg warmers can become your best allies for managing changes in temperature quickly and easily. They are in fact tubular-shaped accessories that you can slip over your arms and legs to cover up and thus switch from the short to the long version and the other way round of your cycling look.
They are the ideal complement for your outings when it is still 'chilly' to wear a short cycling outfit but several layers are too much and could make you sweat. Plus they take up little space, so keep them in the back pockets of your jersey!
Shoe covers are an accessory instead designed for winter, they are worn like socks over your shoes to further protect your feet in low temperatures and heavy rain/wind.

Bike arm warmers
Bicycle arm warmers are a technical piece of clothing and part of the equipment that cyclists need to protect/cover their arms, particularly in mid-season or when the weather is variable. In fact, the use of arm warmers is ideal in very cold weather, as an additional layer, or during 'cool' and variable cycling, where it would be inconvenient to continually put on and take off the jacket. In addition, their ergonomic cut allows your arms to have additional muscle support and their fabric is breathable if you choose a good quality garment, thus keeping your skin dry.
It is important to choose the right size: the arm warmers must not move and slide down on the wrist and at the same time must not be too tight and uncomfortable.
Bike leg warmers
Bicycle leg warmers are cycling accessories that, like arm warmers, protect the legs and are suitable in variable weather for quickly changing from long to short trousers and vice versa.
As with the arm warmers, it is important that the leg warmers fit perfectly: in fact, if they are too loose they could pose a danger if they 'fall down' on the foot, and if they are too tight they could bother the cyclist.
We also advise you to choose good quality bicycle leg warmers, made of breathable and technical materials.
Waterproof bicycle shoe covers
The cycling shoe cover is a very useful accessory against the cold and weather. It is worn over the shoe and, if waterproof, protects the foot and prevents it from getting wet while riding in rain or thunderstorms.
In extreme weather situations, it is important that your feet stay dry and at the right temperature: cycling shoe covers do just that!
Two aspects should be considered when choosing the perfect shoe cover:
- breathability: As with other technical clothing, shoe covers should also be as breathable as possible. Materials such as neoprene, polyurethane and nylon are light and help in this respect.
- size: it is advisable, in order to achieve a good fit, to choose a model one size larger than your feet. This way the shoe cover does not tighten and at the same time does not slip off.
