Alé Defence

There’s a lot to be said about breathability during the shoulder seasons and discerning cyclists understand the need for kit that knows exactly how to perform in unpredictable conditions. The key is eliminating the build-up of sweat to ensure you won’t feel the cold. This is where DEFENCE comes in: super versatile whatever the weather, it’s a lightweight, high-stretch, breathable riding top that offers mobility, a stable core body temperature and dries as quickly as you’ll be turning the pedals. It relies on the formidable Polartec® Wind Block – extremely durable and engineered to keep you dry with a dialled-in level of air permeability and resistance. Pair it with a technical baselayer on milder days, add an additional layer for warmth on cold rides, or pull on the K-ATMO sleeves for full upper body coverage to cover all conditions.
