Giro New Road Wind Shirt - $49.99

While there are a lot of long-sleeve, wind-resistant shirts out there, few match [+more] the refined fit and attention to detail found in Giro's new Wind Shirt. Cut and sewn in California, heavily tested by a variety of cyclists for fit and function, it stands as a versatile top that's sure to become a new favorite in your riding arsenal.

Giro's long-sleeve Wind Shirt is a modern take on the waxed-canvas clothing long used for fending off the elements. For the construction, a durable cotton and Lycra blend was employed, which was given a NexTec treatment for shielding your core from wind and light rain. In addition to being an exceptionally tough protective layer, this fabric breathes to ensure you remain fresh and dry while piloting your steed throughout the city.

This top was designed with a slim fit that's been cut to follow your movements while in the riding position. Giro's Ride Position Flex Pleats along the rear panel enhance this fit; the pleats lie flat when you're off the bike, but in the riding position they open up to allow for added stretch. Finishing off the shirt is a two-way front zipper that's concealed by a smooth button placket.
