Living in the upper midwest can be fun this time of year. Last week we were wearing pants and jackets, today we’re sporting shorts and shirts. This pattern will go on till June. Thankfully companies have rolled out great fall options that will appeal to those shoveling snow, and others sweating it out…

To start, Twin Six is now offering thermal bib tights to both men and women. They get a fleece build up top, and quick-drying 8.8 oz thermal nylon all the way to the ankle. Additionally, it has a ‘form fitting’ chamois and finished with reflective details/zippers, plus silicone grips. For men, sizes run from S – XXXL. For women, sizes run XS – XXL. Price: $125. They’re also available in Bib Knickers that stop mid calf for $115 (men’s) and $105 (women’s).
Their Prime long sleeve jersey has also been updated and comes in solid black or orange. The material is the same Prime T6 mesh as their short sleeve jerseys, providing just enough warmth for those cool autumn days without dipping into full thermal heat retention. They get a full length hidden zipper and three back pockets. Sizing ranges from S – XXXL. Price: $130

From Santini we get their XX Anniversary collection that consists of a jersey, polo, pullover, and T-shirt. Each of which gets that classic Italian design in celebration of the Eroica vintage tour. Three button pockets are sewn into the jersey, polo, and sweater. The jersey gets a soft wool build and a short 1/4 zip collar. The polo is made with cotton and fits well while riding or hanging at the after party. Similar to the polo, the sweater makes use of a few buttons for the added vintage style. The collar has a horizontal button pattern, and the overall build is a woven blend of fabrics. Lastly, the T-shirt gets a cotton build and gets a large Eroica 20th anniversary logo. Sizes range from S-XXL, the T-shirt gets XS. Prices: €130 (Jersey) : €110 (Polo) : €150 (Sweater) : €30 (T-Shirt)

Capo designed their Le Mans kit with speed in mind. The main torso and shoulder panels get a lightweight, breathable fabric with a UV/heat-resistant treatment.

Underneath, the bibs have a mush upper and a Swiss Lycra bottom with grips all around the cuffs. The chamois is mid-sized, and gets an anti-bacterial cover. Prices: $160 (Jersey) : $220 (Bib Shorts)
