Alé Nordik Thermowind Dwr Bibtights Review

• The coldest of winter days needn’t resign you to the indoor trainer, with the Nordik Thermowind DWR Bibtights you’ll be able to venture out even in sub-zero temperatures and still remain comfortable. The key to the warmth of the tights is their Windtex softshell construction, this sees a 3-layer design with a durable outer and soft cosy inner sandwiching a completely windproof membrane. Added to this is a water-resistant treatment, shrugging off rain, while the hydrophilic inner retains heat and wicks sweat away remarkably quickly for perfect comfort and temperature regulation.  Close attention to detail is vital for winter comfort and here Ale doesn’t let you down. Flatlock stitching creates a smooth finish and minimises chafing when pedalling, while waterproof and thermotaped cuffs to the lower leg prevent road spray from seeping in. Then, for those shorter and darker days of winter, Ale also adds reflective details, keeping you seen when getting in your training sessions after the sun has set. At the heart of the tights is Ale’s highly regarded Double Ergo HF chamois. This seat insert has a Bi-component surface in the front and lateral parts in the groin. The high-density 120 kg foam covers the contact point on the saddle (perinea and ischiatic) but it’s reduced in the remaining parts to guarantee minimal bulk and to ensure breathability is optimised. Lateral shaped wings follow the body, adapting to body movement to give a chafe-free pedal stroke, in or out of the saddle.

There are obviously a massive amount of options to choose from so we’d always suggest doing your research at the start to help you to really understand what sort of product you need.

This list will really come in useful when you come to narrowing down your search. Don’t be tempted to stray away from the list though or you can quickly end up spending much more than you had planned because you’re suckered into some sales copy which makes you feel like you need a feature of a more expensive product, when in reality you don’t.
