Storm Jacket 2.0 is developed for cross-country enthusiasts who keep on skiing even when the wind blows fiercely across the tracks. This warm and smooth jacket comes with windproof front panel and brushed, elastic fabric at the back to ensure excellent body-temperature management during low-intensity skiing in stormy weather.

When you're on the trail, you have enough to worry about without stressing on your sock situation. That's why we created our durable, no-fuss Techno Mountain Tall Socks. They feature a lightweight blend of our VaporRize™ yarns, which work in tandem to naturally control temperatures and manage sweat buildup. In other words, they're comfortable, and to further ensure this, we've included mid-foot arch support and a light underfoot cushion to help absorb vibration and chatter from the trail.

Product Notes:

• Techno PE VaporRize™ yarns are durable and highly effective at moisture management.

When you need more insulation for a long, cold ride, our Therminal™ Liner gloves are up to the task. They're designed to give you an added level of warmth by wearing them inside either our Deflect™ or Element gloves. We made them plenty thin to avoid adding any bulk or to affect your finger dexterity or bar feel. And on a brisk spring or fall day, they're more than capable of staving off chills when worn alone, which is no problem at all given the durable reinforced palm.

• Therminal™ fleece provides loft to to trap heat and move moisture away from the skin, preventing cold hands.
• Ax Suede palm material is tough, hydrophobic, conforming, and touchscreen-compatible.
• Rib-knit cuff with pull-on tab interfaces well with long sleeves and makes getting the gloves on and off an easy process.

Depending on where you live and ride, full shoe covers might be a little too aggressive for the conditions at hand. This isn't to say that it isn't cold, though—you just might be better suited with something like our Element WINDSTOPPER® Toe Covers, instead.

These toe covers feature a Gore® WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shell construction that ensures superior levels of breathable insulation, plus reliable resistance to both wind and water. The result? Warmth and protection right where you need it, without running the risk of overheating.

Mother Nature is always in flux, but mankind is both smart and adaptable. In other words, whenever she changes her mood, we always have the right tool for the job. And when that job is protecting against blustery, cold conditions, the right tool is our Deflect™ Comp Shoe Covers.

Compared to our Element line of shoe covers, Deflect™ places more of a focus on wind resistance, so you'll find a stretchable construction with lightweight insulating properties. And to make getting in and out of the covers easy, we also included a rear zipper.

Packable brim protects eyes from snow and is stowable.

Wintertime is the perfect time of year for cross training. After all, you rode your heart out over the course of the summer, so why not get a pair of tights that can easily double for other sports? Answering this question are our Women's Therminal™ Tights. They're built without a chamois, so you can pair them with your favorite shorts for riding, or use them independently for other winter activities.

For the construction, these tights feature our Therminal™ fabric, which is designed to both insulate and manage moisture buildup. To do so, it has a brushed fleece interior with a light loft that pulls moisture away from skin to evaporate it at the material's surface. This loft also has the added benefit of insulation, which occurs by trapping tiny pockets of warmth between the skin and the fabric. The result? Consistent warmth that doesn't come with the risk of overheating. And to take this principle a step further, we've also included ankle gaiters that create a sealed interface with covers or socks to keep the cold from infiltrating the legs.

As for the fit, they have an articulated cycling design that conforms specifically to a woman's body within the cycling position. This means that throughout your movements, the fabrics will follow the body, not work against them. And as a result, these tights won't cause any chafing, unwanted rubbing, or abrasion.

These tights were purposefully constructed without a chamois, and the reason is pretty simple. For those who prefer to keep riding in their favorite bib shorts year-round, you're able to simply layer these tights over your shorts for predictable comfort and added warmth. And for anyone seeking out versatility, these tights will be perfect for use in other disciplines like Nordic skiing, running, or snowshoeing.

Product Notes:

• Therminal™ fabrics feature remarkable insulating properties, astounding levels of breathability and moisture management, and a lightweight, brushed back fleece that's soft against the skin.
• Articulated cycling fit is designed to complement the body throughout the positions and movements of cycling, which eliminates any unwanted pinching, rubbing, or chafing.
• Ankle gaiters interface perfectly with shoes and covers to prevent water and cold air from creeping up the legs.
• Eight-inch ankle zippers make getting your legs in and out of the tights a simplified affair.
• Reflective elements increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions.
• DeflectUV 50+ protects against harmful UV rays.

This water bottle enclosure is designed to insulate and prevent water from freezing when riding in cold conditions.

Cold hands are never fun, and when the temperatures dip below freezing, they're downright dangerous. That's why we created our all-new Fat Mitts to combat the nastiest of Mother Nature's temper tantrums. Their durable construction features a Primaloft® insulation to help with warmth, while they also has a bombproof ripstop woven fabric selection that will cut back on the risk of catching nicks, tears, and snags from rogue branches. We've also included reinforced CORDURA® at strategic locations in order to prevent damage from crashes or everyday wear. These mitts are designed to work with mountain bike bars, more specifically for use with fat bikes, and they easily secure via a simple-to-use attachment at the bar ends. The closures, meanwhile, are fully adjustable, so you'll be able to lock-in the warmth once you get the blood moving on your ride. And as a result, these mitts create an extremely warm and comfortable microclimate that's all but entirely shielded from the cold.

• Primaloft® insulation is ultra-lightweight, highly breathable, and quite efficient at trapping air to keep you warm and insulated from the elements.
• Hi-Viz Reflect details increase your visibility to motorists and other riders in low-light conditions on the road or trail.
• Ripstop woven fabrics greatly increase the durability of the construction, limiting the possibility of tears without forgoing breathability.
• Internal storage creates a handy space for storing your phone, hand warmers, or nutrition.
• Reinforced CORDURA® is strategically placed in order to protect the mitts from damage in the case of a spill or long-term use.
• The Bar end attachments are easily removable, making installation and removal of the mitts a breeze—especially with cold hands.
• Adjustable closures are included in order to lock in warmth once you get the blood moving.

If your rides are cold, but never quite near freezing, our Element 1.5 gloves are the perfect choice for your ride. They feature a Gore® WINDSTOPPER® upper and low-weight Thinsulate™ insulation, so they're guaranteed to stave off windy chills and inclement weather—all without compromising bar feel or dexterity.

When it's chilly and windy, it's hard to do much better than our Deflect™ gloves. They include a wind-resistant soft shell upper that's paired with a suede palm in order to provide protection from the elements and a firm, comfortable feel at the bars.

Product Notes:

• Wind-resistant softshell upper staves off wind and chilly weather.
• Hydrophobic Ax Suede fit palm ensures a confident grip with the bars.

Don't get us wrong—we love bib tights. But when the temperatures reach a point where total coverage is required, we understand that your cold weather protection becomes a matter of preference. Our Therminal™ Leg Warmers exceed the demands of those who embrace leg warmers, with a warm, articulated construction that interfaces gracefully with your favorite pair of bib shorts.

Product Notes:

• Therminal™ fabrics feature a brushed fleece interior that insulates, while remaining highly breathable and effective at managing moisture.

There are days in the saddle where a jacket would count as overkill, yet it's still too cold to dress like it's full-on summertime. And for the colder version of these kind of days, Specialized created the Therminal™ Arm Warmers.

They have a construction that's comprised of Specialized's Therminal™ fabric, which is designed to both insulate and manage moisture buildup. To do so, it has a brushed fleece interior with a light loft that pulls moisture away from skin to evaporate it at the material's surface. This loft also has the added benefit of insulation, which occurs by trapping tiny pockets of warmth between the skin and the fabric. At the exterior, you'll find light levels of wind and water protection that'll have you riding comfortably through mixed conditions.

As for fit, the warmers have an articulated design that conforms to the arm and its various positions and movements while cycling. And to ensure that they stay set where you want them, there are fold-over cuffs with a light silicone print to gently hold them in place.

Ultra-warm jackets are well and good, but more often than not, you'll be reaching for a long sleeve jersey come wintertime. Simple and versatile, a piece like our RBX Sport Long Sleeve Jersey will serve you well when the mercury begins to drop.

Constructed from our VaporRize™ knit fabrics, the RBX Sport features a light level of insulation that makes it perfect as a standalone jersey in fair conditions, or as a layering piece when conditions get at or near freezing. And to make sure of it, this material also wicks moisture away from the skin incredibly well, while also maintaining high levels of breathability. Altogether, this means that you'll be riding in a sustainable microclimate that's free from large spikes in either direction of the thermometer.

Product Notes:

• VaporRize™ is a lightweight, breathable, and warming stretch knit that accelerates moisture transfer, while remaining soft, light, and comfortable against the skin.
• Three back expansion pockets provide ample room to store all of your ride essentials.
• Full-length front zipper allows you to control the fit and dump head on-the-fly.
• Deflect® UV 50+ protects your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays.
• Standard Fit is generous, so it fits close to the body without being constricting.

Sure, for some people, performance is all that matters—we'll leave the skinsuits for them. For the rest of us, however, there's value in matching performance with comfort, and this is where our RBX Classic Long Sleeve Jersey thrives.

It's made from our VaporRize™ knit fabrics that place a focus on balancing durability and moisture management, which means that you get a jersey that'll be long lasting and quite comfortable over the long haul. The long sleeves, on the other hand, add an extra layer for shoulder-season riding, all while providing plenty of protection from the sun.

Adding to the comfort, you'll find that we included a full-length front zipper for on-the-fly venting, as well as our Regular Fit. This cut hits the sweet spot between race and classic, so it's perfect for long, all-out rides, yet it's roomy enough to avoid any pinching or the feeling of being constricted in your movements.

Product Notes:

• Lightweight RBX Classic fabric feels incredible against the skin and performs even better.
• Three standard pockets are featured on the back, while a full front zipper makes heat dumps fast and easy.
• Reflective logo details slightly increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions.
