For cyclists wind is an ever-present force. Whether you’re racing or training riding alone or in a group wind is always a factor. Our Mistral collection was designed to protect you from a cold wind. These jerseys jackets & vests are named after the infamous Mistral winds of France which are most prevalent in winter & spring. The Mistral blows in from the north gains strength & is strongest in the south of France near the Mediterranean coast. It makes for tough riding to say the least. Made with Gore Windstopper Infinium technology our Mistral jerseys jackets & vests each feature a lightweight three-layer laminate that blocks wind & frigid temperatures while still being highly breathable. As a result you can train hard & push the pace on climbs or while riding in the protection of the peloton but still stay warm when you’re exposed to icy wind. You can’t control the wind. But our Mistral collection can help you keep riding comfortably—even in the strongest coldest winds of the season.
