Velocio welcomes Alex Howes to their ambassador team

  • Ron 
Velocio is proud to announce a new addition to their cycling ambassador team—Alex Howes.
With Grand Tour experience, a national road racing championship, and the palmarès of a world class cyclist, Alex Howes is every bit a bike racer. This year marks a new path for Alex. With support from our friends at Cannondale and a racing schedule that includes all flavors of racing, Alex is rebooting his racing focus and Velocio is excited to be along for the ride.

Alex Howes’ Picks —

Alpha Merino Air Jacket | Men’s and Women’s | $249

Using the latest and most advanced version of Polartec’s renowned Alpha insulation, with the addition of merino wool, the Alpha Merino Air jacket punches way above its weight in terms of warmth, breathability and performance. Alpha Wool is used as interior insulation on the sleeve, front and collar, while Pertex Quantum Air provides an ultralight wind and water resistant barrier to help trap heat and maintain class-leading breathability. The back panel of the jacket is made from fleece-backed italian milled recycled polyester to aid in breathability and mobility.

LUXE Bib Tight | Men’s and Women’s | $299

The LUXE Bib Tight is the full-length version of Velocio’s popular all-day LUXE Bib Short. Designed for cooler days when a little extra coverage is all that’s needed, the LUXE Bib Tight offers an unconstricted feel and smoothly finished coverage. Using the same fabric and patterning as the LUXE Bib short, the result is a tight like no other, bearing exceptional support and all-day comfort.

Alpha Glove | Unisex | $119

A new take on a winter cycling glove, the Alpha borrows know-how from Velocio’s advanced Alpha System and incorporates that concept into an extremely warm, yet lightweight glove. Inspired by high-alpine mountaineering, the concept combines Velocio’s DVStretch Softshell outer layer for wind/water protection with Polartec’s Alpha Direct inside for its high warmth-to-weight insulating qualities, in a newly developed 3D pattern. The result is their warmest glove, capable of temps below freezing while maintaining a light, low-bulk feel with unmatched dexterity.

ZERO Cycling Cap | One Size – Unisex | $89

New England, with its harsh winters, is a proving ground for what performs well and what doesn’t—and an ideal location for testing and designing cycling apparel. The ZERO Cycling Cap has proven itself time and time again when temperatures plunge. The low-profile, fleece-lined design fits perfectly under a helmet, and provides excellent warmth, protection, and breathability for extended winter miles.

Winter Wool Sock | Unisex | $28

Updated for added warmth without bulk, the Winter Wool Sock adds terry loop padding to the footbed and up, over the toes for ultra-fine merino comfort against the elements. The strategically placed padding keeps the socks comfortable in a cycling shoe without feeling bulky. Nylon is incorporated for durability and longevity in high wear areas, with a touch of elastane for a perfect fit.
