Layer up!
Tough cookies keep on cycling in winter, also when temperatures drop to as low as below zero degrees. What to wear to keep you warm enough? Let's cut straight through to the answer: it's all about layering. With your core kept warm, you unlock the secret to riding comfortably in the harshest of weather. At Maats, we advise to adhere to ''The Three Layer Principle'', consisting of:
#1: The baselayer
This is the first and arguably most key component to keeping you warm. Various options of thermal fabrics allow you to make the right choice for the temperature you're defying that day. For instance, pick merino wool for its perfect temperature regulation capacities, or choose Polartec for state-of-the-art heat technology. Wear a snug fit to make sure the top layers won't look wrinkly.
#2: The longsleeve jersey
This middle piece may seem excessive, but let us tell you: it isn't. The longsleeve jersey is the ideal inbetween layer to add a level of temperature regulation, combined with the practical function of its pockets (as both layer #1 and #3 typically don't have these). Longsleeve jerseys come in variations from thin textiles to thermal fleece-lined fabrics. Choose what you feel aligns best with the outside temperature.
#3: The gilet or jacket
Lastly, wear a gilet or jacket over all of the above. A gilet keeps your core warm yet ventilates through your armpits, whereas a jacket's sleeves not only keep your body warmth, but also cover your arms to cold riding wind. The great thing about this third layer is that you can wear it (partly) unzipped to cool down, or get rid of it altogether during your ride. Lightweight gilets/jackets typically can be stowed easily into a back pocket of your jersey.
Now don't think this is it: treat yourself to a thermal long bib, and take care of your extremities by adding a beanie, a neck tube, gloves, thermal socks, overshoes and what not. At Maats, we have it all! ;)

Danish Pas Normal Studios have designed this fantastic Mechanism Women's long sleeve cycling jersey to be the ideal garment for any cyclist in a diverse range of temperatures. The stretchy material of which the cycling jersey is made is dyed, which gives it a super soft feeling on the skin. The minimalistic look has a very elegant feel and because the shirt is antibacterial treated, the shirt stays nice and fresh in the long term. We think this is a true classic that deserves a place in your cycling wardrobe. Without a doubt one of the most beautiful cycling jerseys we have ever held in our hands!
We tested this product ourselves on a bicycle trip from Barcelona to Girona and back. Both days it was 8 degrees in the morning and 17 degrees in the afternoon and we have never been too cold or too hot. Totally recommended in combination with a nice gilet that you can take off when it rises above 13 degrees. You can also roll up the flexible sleeves up to your elbow if it gets too hot.
- Pas Normal Studios logo on chest and back
