It’s flannel season! Time to slip on that comfy plaid shirt and get out for a ride… but you’ve put on some weight over the winter, eh? Not to fear, Kitsbow Cycling Apparel now offers more sizes than ever of their Icon Flannel.
With the introduction of the new Ample Athletic fit for women, Kitsbow now offers 59 different fit and size options of their Icon Shirts in a curated collection of plaid wools, heathered wools, and denim.
The Icon is offered in two cuts for men in the Signature Fit and Relaxed Athletic Fit. The women’s Icon shirt has two cuts as well, the Icon Shirt for Women and the Ample Athletic Fit.
Signature Fit
This fit has fitted shoulders and a fitted torso. It’s slimmer and more form-fitting. Kitsbow says it’s a “more traditional true-to-size garment”.
Icon Shirt for Women
This fit is designed with a women’s frame in mind, enhancing the body shape while leaving room in the chest and hips.
Relaxed Athletic Fit
This version of the Icon is cut with more room in the shoulders and chest allowing for what Kitsbow says is a wide range of motion and a moderately tailored look. This cut looks like it might lend itself to easier layering.
Ample Athletic Fit for Women
This cut was designed quite simply to accommodate more bodies by adding necessary shaping in the chest and hips.
“One of the hallmarks of the Kitsbow Apparel experience is the tailored fit,” says David Billsrom, one of the leaders at employee-owned Kitsbow. “The product team constantly strives to increase the number of fits and sizes, so that the customers have a true choice in selecting a garment that really fits their body. We all know that this is a deep challenge, inherent in the apparel business, and I’m proud that Kitsbow currently offers 4,600 different size/fit/color combinations in our product catalog ”
Kitsbow says their Icon performance flannel is built to last a lifetime. The Pendleton wool is said to breathe, allowing it to stay “fresh”. Kitsbow declares that the Icon flannel is designed to be the “best fitting, best-looking wool shirt you will ever own.”
And now with more sizes and fits, there seems to be an Icon for just about anyone.
