Pas Normal Studios has launched its 2026 Spring/Summer Off-Race collection. Just what is an “off-race” collection, exactly? The clothing is designed to bridge the gap between performance cycling apparel and everyday urban clothes. With this collection, Pas Normal Studios says it focused on “practical adaptability”.
For example, they incorporated cycling-specific features like thoughtful pocket placement, zippered storage, and easy layering options. And, each piece includes some nice weather-protection elements, while still maintaining a clean and understated look that works perfectly beyond the bike.
The collection uses premium materials and construction techniques to create “off-the-bike” apparel that looks good and still performs.
Cycling can influence how people navigate urban environments and move through their daily routines. So, Pas Normal’s Off-Race Collection pieces work as transition wear, suitable for getting to and from rides or simply moving around the city.
Some other key design elements of this new collection include functional storage solutions that are based on real cycling needs. The pieces are lightweight and pack down for easy layering.
The brand selected materials specifically for their durability, breathability, and comfort across different conditions. The waterproofing doesn’t look overly technical, which helps keep the collection’s aesthetic refined and minimalistic. This helps make the pieces versatile enough to integrate naturally into non-cycling activities.
