Cycling in Style: Best Women’s Cycling Jerseys
Written by Deena GiancottiFrom the early days of the TDF to today’s chic street cycling aesthetic, the relationship between style and cycling has long been undeniable. So why is it that women’s cycling apparel has been so limited? Thankfully, these five companies are changing the game for women by combining high-performance jerseys with great style and design.

ASSOS of Switzerland
The Swiss company ASSOS has long been known for its innovation and high-quality apparel, especially its famous chamois. However, they have long focused on men’s cycling—until now! A big change is in the works as the company is making a commitment to portray women in the same way they portray men—as athletes. They have also deployed the highly talented ASSOS R&D team, together with a subset of strong women riders who work for ASSOS, to design a women’s line that matches the breadth of the men’s line. Check out the women’s new line of jerseys. We look forward to the next generation of ASSOS gear for women!

Velocio
Velocio jerseys have a clean aesthetic, bright colors, subtle detailing, and tasteful design. But more importantly, you’ll love the way they feel on your body. Velocio uses lightweight technical Italian fabrics that are soft, breathable, and comfortable on your skin. The brand launched in 2014 as an exclusively women’s cycling line. While they have since launched a men’s line, women’s cycling remains at the forefront of their identity.

Machines for Freedom
Solely focused on women’s cycling, Machines for Freedom’s founder Jenn Hannon started this company based on the notion that “women deserve clothing that functions the way they need it to and looks damn good.” She is certainly achieving what she set out to do. MFF’s jerseys are high-performance, modern, and sophisticated. You will look great and feel strong and confident in this jersey! Plus, you have to hand it to them—Machines for Freedom is a memorable name!

Ten Speed Hero
Spend some time on their website, and you’ll quickly realize that there’s a fun, smart, and creative crew at Ten Speed Hero. Their design inspiration comes from unusual and whimsical places—sprinkles, kaleidoscopes, architecture, and even an old faucet at a grandmother’s house in Germany. They believe that good design makes life better and that visuals affect your soul. And they deliver. TSH jerseys are colorful and fun, and they are rendered in technical, high-performance fabrics. Check out their cycling socks and caps too!

Café du Cycliste
Café du Cycliste is the essence of classic French style. High quality with subtle patterns and beautiful fabrics, their jerseys have a refined and luxurious look and feel. They are grounded in the tradition of French cycling, but with a modern twist. Located in the Cote d’Azur, they have a new space overlooking the port in the old part of Nice. A mixture of café and clubhouse, you can drop by for a coffee, use their locker rooms, and even have your bike checked over by one of their mechanics!
