Regarding the question of whether it is necessary to buy cycling clothes, the editor believes that it depends on the specific situation. If you are competing in competitions or riding for a long time/long distance, cycling clothes are quite necessary! Because cycling clothes have too many advantages over ordinary clothing. They are designed specifically for cycling and are more scientific. They can not only effectively reduce wind resistance, perspiration and breathability, but also better protect the body, improve the safety of cycling, make people ride more comfortable and smooth, and even increase your enthusiasm for cycling. If you just ride for leisure or occasionally, or if you think cycling clothes are eye-catching, it is not necessary to buy cycling clothes.
But then again, if you have bought such an expensive bicycle, it would be a pity if you don’t buy a set of professional cycling clothes to experience it! However, there are not only many products but also uneven quality of cycling clothes on the market. How should we choose them?
1. Classification of Cycling Clothes
Cycling clothing can be categorized based on style, fit, and season.
1.1 Classification by style
According to the style, cycling jerseys can be divided into two types: one-piece and two-piece. One-piece cycling jerseys usually have lower wind resistance and are suitable for professional competitions, but they are not easy to put on and take off; two-piece cycling jerseys are more common, easy to put on and take off, and suitable for daily riding.
1.2 Classification by season
According to the season, cycling jerseys can be divided into summer, spring and autumn, and winter cycling jerseys. In summer, thin and breathable fabrics are usually used, such as short-sleeved cycling jerseys; in spring and autumn, moderately thick fabrics may be chosen, such as long-sleeved cycling jerseys; while in winter, thicker materials, such as long-sleeved fleece cycling jerseys, are chosen to provide better warmth.
1.3 Classification by version
Cycling jerseys can also be divided into competition version, professional version and leisure version according to the version. The competition version usually adopts a tight design to reduce wind resistance, the professional version is a more fitted cut, and the leisure version is a loose cut, providing higher comfort, suitable for novices or daily riding.

3. How to choose the size of cycling jersey
Since cycling clothes are to be worn close to the body, they must fit well. Do not buy them too big. If they do not fit well, they will be messy in the wind when riding, affecting the speed and experience of riding. When choosing the size of cycling clothes, you should first measure your body size, and then choose the size according to your body size and shape. The size standards of different brands of cycling clothes will be slightly different. It is recommended to choose according to the size chart provided by the brand.
In fact, the most reliable way to confirm the size is to try it on in a physical store. Friends who are struggling to figure out which size is right for them may want to consider this method.

4. Things to note when buying cycling clothes
First of all, the cycling jersey you buy should not be too dark in color as it easily absorbs heat; secondly, it is best to choose a full-zipper style as it is more breathable and more conducive to cycling; finally, the size should not be too large; choosing a cycling jersey that is one or half a size smaller may give you a better experience!

5. Look at the budget
The price of cycling clothes ranges from tens of yuan to tens of thousands of yuan. Although high-priced cycling clothes are more exquisite in terms of materials and design, you should also choose according to your own pocket. For spring and summer cycling clothes, choosing between 100-300 yuan is not bad, especially for beginners. The price of autumn and winter clothes is much more expensive than spring and summer clothes, so the budget is naturally higher.

6. Conclusion
When buying cycling clothes, in addition to understanding the classification of cycling clothes, looking at the brand, size, and budget, you should also keep in mind some precautions such as the color should not be too dark, it is best to choose a full zipper style, and the size should not be too large!
