This month, we take a look at the very latest kit to hit the women’s specific market from brands such as PEdALED, Fox Racing, Rab, and more.

With Japanese origins and a high-end luxurious aesthetic, PEdALED has created a selection of women's specific cycle clothing throughout the years and has recently added some more women's options to its collection.
PEdALED is a go-to brand for many female adventurers who revel in type two fun, chasing miles in the wilderness, and to those who like riding in the world's most remote places. The brand's premium high-performance products are tried and tested for those exact situations and explicitly designed for races like the Transcontinental and the Silk Road Mountain Race.

The PEdALED Women’s Element Bib Shorts are ideal for everyday cycling, too, and feature lightweight, breathable fabrics and an endurance-designed chamois by Elastic Interface - a very renowned chamois manufacturer. They're then available in two colours, either an earthy Orange or a pastel Lilac. Sizes range from XXS to XXL.
Jelenew’s Cut-Out sports bra

A good, functional, supportive sports bra is an essential part of the riding kit for all women. The fit is crucial, but with cycling, there can be a fine line between not having enough support and the bra being too restrictive. Jelenew is a women-specific cycling brand and has used years of experience in designing this sports bra - and it also helps when its co-founder is Marion Clignet - a track cycling World Champion and Olympic medalist.

This Cut-Out Bra from Jelenew is designed to accommodate a heart rate monitor and has a cutout on the front to work with the bulky bit of a heart rate monitor strap. This should help alleviate unwanted pressure against your chest. The bra is available now in black and white and in sizes from XXS to 5XL.
Fox Racing's Tahnée Seagrave Signature TS57 Collection

Fox Racing's latest Tahnée Seagraves signature collection is a nod to the British downhiller's belief that happiness is the main ingredient for her success. Her new TS57 Signature Collection isn't subtle at all, but instead, Tahnée shows you can be a fast, successful, talented sportswoman and show your feminine pink-loving side as well.

The TS57 Signature range includes the Women's Flexair TS57 Long Sleeve Jersey and trousers, the Ranger TS57 6" Socks, an oversized tee, a hoody, and joggers. And if the pink is too much, there is a faded black colourway on offer, too.

Rab MTB Shorts, by Rhian Atherton
Mountaineering brand Rab is known for creating high-quality outdoor alpine adventure sports clothing and equipment, but in the last year, it's expanded more and more into the cycling sector, too. The Rab Cinder collection takes everything the brand knows about proper outdoor kit and applies that to cycling-specific apparel.

The Rab Women’s Cinder Crank Shorts are a perfect summer choice with the breathable, stretchy fabric and thigh ventilation zips. Your bum will be happy thanks to the saddle reinforcements, and the offset inseam reduces the risk of sore spots. There is also an easy on-the-go access to your pockets. Two colours are available: Orion Blue or Anthracite and the price is set at £110. Sizes range from UK 8 to UK 16.
Endura’s Singletrack Leggings

The off-road racing scene fashion has again gone full circle, and skintight, sleek apparel is now back in the top spot. Whether it’s to knock off seconds of a downhill run or for ease of movement and comfort, the bottom line is we now have the chance to own some slim figure-hugging clothing once again. We wear them for yoga and walking, so why not on the trails?

The Endura Women’s Singletrack Leggings are multifunctional legwear with the idea that they're not limited to bike use only. They look good wherever you are, using a rapid-wicking recycled stretch knit fabric and stretch woven panels placed on the knee and seat panel for defense against abrasion. Easy access mesh pockets are placed on the thigh panels and a zipped one for valuables.
Costing £70 and with sizes ranging from XS to 2XL, they come in, yes, you've guessed, two colourways. Black or Dreich Grey.
