Online retailer Backcountry just announced a complete mountain bike apparel line for men and women. Find some of our favorites below.

In this installment of The Dust-Up, Hailey Moore writes about the clichés of cycling fashion, the paradox of self-expression, why riding in cut-offs and flannel has perhaps jumped the shark, and the liberation found in embracing performance apparel. Read on for a thorough reflection on why we wear what we wear when we ride…

Cosmic Dirt is a new apparel company that just launched a Kickstarter Campaign to raise liquidity to fund its ambitious apparel project: design and manufacture MTB and outdoor clothing in sizes from XS – 4x. If you have friends who are bigger-bodied, then you know their struggle to find apparel that fits them properly. Grading in clothing can be expensive and time-consuming, so your support can help Cosmic Dirt do it right! See more at the Kickstarter…

Bicycle Nightmares is a streetwear brand inspired by mountain biking and they just launched their first collection, entitled the Unrelated. See the full drop at Bicycle Nightmares.

We’ve heard of substances being banned by the UCI but apparel? Endura’s Surface Silicone Topography technology got the kibosh by the UCI at the Vuelta a España in 2015. Who better to explain how all this happens than Graeme Obree, a man who was practically banned by the UCI himself!

Meant for commuters on the go, Taylor Stitch’s Civic line is sparked by the busy life of city living and uses fabrics that are naturally wicking and maintain their form. Made in San Francisco from merino and other active fabrics, for men and women, the Civic line is currently in a crowd-sourcing stage, where you can save lots of money by funding each of these garments. Check out the full lineup at Taylor Stitch.

Swrve has teased a few images of this so far and while I didn’t get to see it at Interbike, I will say this looks like it’s going to be a great piece of apparel. Expect more information in the coming weeks… For now, direct all questions at SWRVE on Instagram!

Com’on, admit it. You’ve got a few pieces of Patagonia in your wardrobe. My favorite is their down sweater. I never leave for a trip without it. That thing has saved me on more than one occasion over the years. Chances are, your clothing has hit a few snags after heavy use. Rather than tossing it in the trash, you choose to send it in for repair.

Patagonia’s repair facilities are in Reno, NV but now, there’s a new mobile repair truck. The Worn Wear truck is currently crossing the US to make on the spot repairs, sell used clothes and even teach you how to repair your own apparel.

Check out the full schedule below…

After years of demand, Levi’s has finally listened and delivered a women’s line. Here’s a short video showcasing some of the product features. Personally, I think it looks great and from what I’ve been told, many more pieces are on the way. Check out the full line at Levi’s.

… also, that’s a nice All-City Space Horse at the end!

I wonder, does Santa ride bikes? Because if he does… These new Rouleur x Vélobici Combativity Merino sweaters look to be doing it right. Made in the UK, limited edition (but still in stock) and a great, classic color – sorry, colour – palette. The USD conversion gets a bit steep but if you’re in the UK and are looking for a new pullover, head over to Rouleur to see more.

Cafe du Cycliste‘s tailored approach to city riding is at home in the French Riviera as much as it is in your streets.

Here’s the latest from reflective clothing company, ICNY.

Here’s a new company trying to bust into the made in the USA merino apparel scene. It’s a Kickstarter but if this brand makes it, I’ll be buying some gear. Now just make a crew neck!

Check out the newest offerings from Rapha’s SS13 line. I’m pumped to see some more women’s offerings and as always, the full line looks great. See more from the Spring Summer 2013 Lookbook for Training & Racing here and the women’s bib shorts here.

Hey Cindy and Mal!

It’s funny how a ten-degree drop in temperature here in Austin has me scrambling to find my winter caps again. Little reminders, brought on my cold fronts, always alert me to the fact that the rest of the US is still very much in winter. While I’d only be able to wear the SWRVE Gore-Tex Belgian Cap once and a while here in Texas, I’m sure the rest of you would love to have one of these around your ears in the morning. Made in the USA and in an array of colors, pick one up here at SWRVE.
