What are the key features of each item?
Short sleeve jersey
An ultralightweight, breathable cycling jersey designed for warm weather conditions, with microperforated panels on the sides and back for enhanced moisture-wicking. It also features three rear pockets with reflective detailing, invisible seams and an elastic bottom hem with an anti-slip silicone inner band for a perfect fit. Additionally, this jersey protects from the sun, wicks away sweat and provides total ease of movement.
Sleeveless base layer
Made of ultralightweight mesh fabric, with a second skin feel that regulates body temperature and provides comfort. Ideal for wearing under the jersey to stay dry and comfortable on the bike.
Bib shorts
These bib shorts include a chamois designed specifically for kids’ anatomy to provide extra comfort on their first outings. They feature elastic suspenders, mesh-like fabric on the back for enhanced breathability, invisible seams, and non-slip silicone inner bands on the legs for optimal support.
Padded cycling shorts
Similar to the bib shorts minus the suspenders, these padded shorts feature a wide, elastic waistband with anti-slip inner fabric for a perfect fit. These are perfect for kids who’d like more ease of movement or dislike the feel of the suspenders on their shoulders.
Gloves
They protect the hands from blisters and chafing, improve the grip on the handlebar, and prevent road burns or injuries on the palm of the hand when falling off the bike. The fabric on the back of the palm is elastic and microperforated to guarantee optimal breathability, while the palm is cushioned and features laser-cut perforation for enhanced moisture-wicking. Additionally, they include microfiber fabric on the thumb area to wipe away sweat.
Socks
Breathable and comfortable crew socks specifically designed for kids. Made of compressive fabric with an elastic cuff to keep them in place without being too tight. The elastic arch band, Y-shaped heel and seamless toe guarantee an excellent fit and optimal comfort.
Why invest in essential apparel and accessories?
Higher comfort equals higher motivation
A breathable garment that fits perfectly and snugly, that doesn’t feel heavy on the body or creases uncomfortably when moving, is crucial for kids to enjoy the sport. And to enjoy cycling is wanting to go on more and more rides.
Guaranteed durability
We use fabrics that hold up to anything: their first falls, mud, loaded washing machines… We’re not aiming for overly technical, sophisticated gear, but items made to last that serve their purpose.
Just what they need, and no more
All the items included in our Core Kids collection have been designed only with the most essential features needed for beginners in mind. Just enough for kids to start learning, exploring and falling in love with cycling. There will always be a chance to upgrade to more technical gear as they gradually grow more and more into the sport.
Tips for proper wear and usage
Make sure to check the size chart for each garment to ensure that they fit the kids snugly but comfortably, neither too loose nor too tight. Children never stop growing, but these garments are easily adaptable to their bodies and made to last for long periods of time thanks to their elastic composition.
However, make sure the bib shorts fit them properly for the chamois to serve its purpose and not cause them any discomfort.
When it comes to washing the gear, if it’s not too dirty you can go with a short cycle with cold water and soft, neutral detergent. If possible, avoid using high temperature settings when tumble drying the clothes to preserve the properties of the fabric.
With our Siroko Core Kids collection, you’re not just investing in essential cycling gear, but also promoting a healthy and fun lifestyle for the kids. Help them feel comfortable, safe and protected from any harm, and they will have space to fully enjoy cycling. The smile on their face will be worth it.
