I used to tough it out like a fool and I recently got a nice set of thermal base layer. Brave New World!
This is one of the mostly useful winter clothing videos I have seen. Rather than just a list of what to wear and a advert for a high-end clothing company, we had an experienced pro telling us the reasons WHY you may or may not want to wear something. This allows you to make your own choice based on some very clear and useful information.
Would people rather they said ‘’wear this £300 jacket from Le Col. don’t worry about why, just buy it”?
Paid comment go away
Dyski Not that I’m aware of - or you offering?? I can send you my details 🤦♂️
Is this a joke? This is literally an advert for a high-end clothing company, co-presented by the founder of that high-end clothing company.
When it gets cold (like it is doing right now in New York, where I live), I wear a wool buff around my neck and a thin wool skull cap under my helmet. The buff works great - when I'm riding up a hill and the pace is slow and I'm hot, I can lower it below my chin, and then when I go down the other side and it's fast and the air is blowing around my face I can cover my nose and mouth and stay warm. It's easy to adjust without faff, and makes a world of difference. Definitely get one or two. Buff has a whole line of them, Castelli makes a "neck thingy" that does the same deal, I'm sure there are more from Assos and other decent brands.
Great video with some fantastic knowledge shared! Cheers guys!
I used a pair of ski socks last winter. Was very helpful.
Great advice all around. Thanks! And nice kit from LeCol
A little brief on keeping your feet warm and dry. That's worth its own video. After years of various types of shoe covers, chemical foot warmers and socks, I finally purchased winter cycling boots and that has been a game changer. Even then, when we're in really deep winter cold here in the northeast U.S., I may add covers over the boots. Of course when it's truly that cold, today there's Zwift!
I thought this was going to be a La Col advert, but this was a very informative video, thanks guys
Best video on this topic I have seen on youtube.
Very good, thanks a lot!
Very informative
Yanto looks like he's just come back from somewhere where he picked up a sun tan.
I think this was more informative then the GCN video.
For some of us, probably the most critic piece of winter kit is a real good pair of gloves. I can manage 0º C with my legs uncovered (as a mater of fact I did just today) but as the temperature starts to drop, my fingers start to feel burning and extremely painful. I probably own 12 pairs of gloves (I did several try and error attempts) and finally got a reasonably warm pair of Castelli Estremo (with a thin underglove) that are vital to me. And please, jacket and vest makers, try to do zippers that can be used with THICK gloves. Not everyone is able to ride with both hands out of the handlebars tu pull up and down the zipper...
I like the idea of an underglove, but I already have the hardest time finding “outer gloves” for lower temps that fit my hand properly (XL-2XL most brands). I can’t imagine trying to find something bigger. 🤔
Sean Herman - Decathlon currently have lightweight ultra thin gloves that I use as ‘undergloves’. They’re not in the cycling section but amongst the general ‘outdoor / hiking’ stuff. They have them in XL and they’re only about £3.
I got proglem that I use scarf over mu mouth and nose, my glasses are go to steam; how that can avoid?
Very good info overall but I was disappointed that I didn't hear the term moisture-wicking in the discussion of fabric. ( Perhaps I got distracted.) I like to do a 30 mile ride on the cold days ( who knows when I'll get out again?) and staying dry while keeping heat in becomes an even greater challenge at distance.
what were those full finger gloves u had on?
So which bibtights are actually WATERPROOF? Cant find any
Yanto finally someone has managed to identify why I always have cold feet, is there anything you can do to help relieve the circulation
Or lack of, when pedalling hard? Would compression socks/calves help?.....
From motorcycle riding I've "discovered" that the part of my body who triggered cold hand and feet was an exposed chin after I've took care of that all the rest kept it's temperature really well. Hope it helps.
Le Col overload!
Even if my clothing is perfect and don't feel cold, under 14°C my nose starts flowing. Is there anything against this?
Do you have any suggestions for gloves to face a Bostonian winter that usually hovers on average between 20 and 45 degrees F, or, between -6 and 7 degree C. ??
Sealskins ultra grip are good, they are waterproof.
Layers, lots of layers for the winter keep the heat in once it’s gone it’s gone . Also Cover your Ears, sub zero wind is painful. But that looks like Fall, no white on the ground so it’s obviously not Canada. ☃️
Not even fall, leaves are still green.
Good one chaps! There are a few good base layers out there - I look at 7 of them in my Bad Ass &-Layer Baselayer Breakdown here: @Odog - Pez
Great review!
Somehow I want to buy lecol now...
The bro in the orange is wearing a base layer and an orange jersey? As it gets colder, he'd add a jab jacket or "jelle't"...?
Pro tip: When you need a winter jacket, don't do 300 watts!
Hi All, I'm Jim Williams and I teach free cycling classes for the City of Fort Collins. I am curious if I could have permission to use short clips from your shows. They will be inserted into our powerpoint presentation. Is this possible?Thank you for your consideration,Jim Williams
I think I would rather be slightly under dressed than over dressed. If you get too cold cut the ride short. If you over heat then sweat too much then catch a flat or get caught in dropping temps, you could be in big trouble. Make sure your hands and feet are warm. Wear a skullcap under your helmet and remove it if you start to over heat. I don't know if a fancy pair of $300 tights are that much better than a more reasonably priced pair. Don't believe the hype be sensible.
haveallbeentaken or you can take packable/removable layers that enable you to change as needed?
Well guys, so you call THIS winter? I live in Austria and my daily commute is 31 km one way - in darkness.
What to wear in the winter? Hmm ... maybe some gloves!?
Holy crap this video is not what I thought. How about which garments to wear at different temperature ranges. Give us specific examples...
hard to do because everyone is different, some run cold, soe run hot, and some can tolerate a lot more cold than others. I thought it was a good video where he's concentrating on telling you that it's a balancing act between finding the clothing and the layers that keep you warm, while also not overheating and sweating too much. Once you start getting drenched in sweat, you're gonna get cold, no matter what you're wearing. I'm finally figuring this out, and I just bought a new jacket where I'm trying to figure out just what I need to be wearing underneath it at what temperatures, and what effort to ride at, to not start overheating halfway through.
I liked the fact that even though this was a sponsored video shilling for Le Col, the owner of the company wasn't just telling us, "for 0 degrees, the Le Col deep winter jacket is the only solution you'll need", or "our thermal jerseys will keep you warm when its below 0". He didn't just push his own products. Instead, he laid out useful information on what you need to do to stay warm, and you have to figure out what clothing works for you(and you alone) to achieve that.
no gloves? must still be 60 degrees where you guys live.
Sounds expensive to ride in the winter.
Nothing new here....maybe for newbies, other than that this is just an advert for his brand. However I do like that orange jacket but the cost is ridiculous even compared to castelli!
Plus, its fugly, with those shoulder reflective circles.
Please we ask you to create an account on TikTok because it is very fast and post videos in Full HD 60fps quality clarity or more , soon please
6 minutes in and you haven't mentioned what to wear?
.please note to avoid critical injury and
death NEVER wear dark clothing or have a dark coloured frame. Life is
valuable never squander it away by taking high risk situations. Deaths
from bike accidents are on the increase because motorist dont see you.
Always wear bright light clothing and light coloured bikes. Never wear
black....
I think I'd rather wear mountain biking clothes in Seattle.
A helmet cover guys! We don't want that ventilation in cold weather. By far the most useful item to have, but too inexpensive to mention in these "helpful" (er, sales promotional videos.
Reflectivity in most cycling gear is a joke.
Considering this was a collaborative video with Le Col I would have like to have seen some of the clothing mentioned rather than just talking for 13 minutes about it.
Heidi Jarvis I liked the fact that it wasn't one long advert.
Guess what guys, even if they decided to mention clothes, people like you will have a problem with it and say, "why don't they just tell us what the clothes do" like they did in this video. Most folks were grateful it wasn't actually a long-wounded Le Col ad. Seek help you social Justice warrior girl..
It wasn't?
If you're riding without gloves, its not winter.
1. Anyone who doesn't wear gloves at the temperature in this video doesn't really suffer from the cold.
2. Unzipping your jersey or coat when at the front producing 350 watts makes no sense since it slows you down aerodynamically.
Bull s t these guys are just sales people with a lot of cash for fancy cycles and clothing.
Promotional video 👎🏼
