Cycle to work
Founded in Scotland in 1993, Endura are a brand synonymous with developing apparel for the most severe weather conditions. The brand has built a reputation for designing functional cycle clothing across a range of MTB, road and triathlon, a reputation that has seen it go from Scottish local hero to global market leader. Partnering as clothing sponsor with professional teams and athletes across a range of cycling disciplines ensures constant innovation and performance-driven development.

Borne out of a need and want to ride on through the Scottish winter, Endura have developed a clothing collection that is durable and adaptable. We have selected some of their key pieces that will protect against the elements and keep you out on the roads and trails all through this winter.
MOUNTAIN
Anyone who rides in the Lakes, Scotland or Wales knows how integral and necessary a good quality waterproof jacket is. Endura’s MT500 jacket is one of the best around. Holding legendary status among pro and amateur riders alike, it’s packed with features.
The jacket deploys ExoShell60™ 3-Layer waterproof fabric which boasts a monster 60,000 gm/m2/24hr breathability as well as being powerfully waterproof. Not only that, but it is environmentally friendly, containing no PFC’s. Nothing has been left to chance on this product. The jacket incorporates stretch panelling where you need it most for ease of movement, while backpack compatible venting ensures that airflow around the body isn’t compromised by wearing a pack. All zippers are YKK and highly rain-resistant, and the lift pass pocket in the sleeve adds to the jackets versatility.
Offering lightweight insulation on or off the bike, the MTR Primaloft Jacket works as a standalone top layer when it’s chilly or can be layered under something like the MT500 jacket in cold and wet conditions.
Primaloft® SILVER insulation windproof panels on the torso, combined with durable, stretch ripstop windproof sleeves keep the cold away and maintain a warm core temperature. The jacket features front handwarmer pockets and a lightweight, stowaway hood offer additional warmth.
This shirt-come-jacket can be worn on or off the bike, equally at home on the trail or at the post-ride cafe or pub stop. The two-in-one versatility offers a windproof shell or an alternative casual flannel plaid shirt. The jacket is insulated to provide warmth and comes with zipped handwarmer and chest pockets. The Shacket is an adaptable garment that comes at a great price.
ROAD
After introducing the Primaloft® jacket to great acclaim, Endura quickly followed with a sleeveless version. The gilet retains the same integration features as the jacket which allows it to be partnered with the Pro SL Shell Jacket on a cold wet day.
PrimaLoft® is a market leader in synthetic padded insulation. Used regularly on apparel in ski and outdoor products, Endura have introduced it to bike clothing with great results. This gilet boasts great warmth with very low bulk, it comes with a stowaway pouch so it can easily be stored in a jersey pocket.
Available in a men’s and women’s version, the Windchill Biblong offers protection and warmth on cold, wet winter rides. Stretch windproof, waterproof front and seat panels along with Luxurious Thermoroubaix® fabric a DWR treatment provide insulation, comfort and water repellency.
The women’s version features a unique drop-seat (DS) zipped construction which allows easy access for comfort breaks on the move. While the men’s version features a zipped fly for the same purpose.
PRO SL THERMAL WINDPROOF JACKET

A high cut, double layer collar is warm and comfortable and high wicking, stretch thermal rear side panels provide core warmth. A reflective trim provides safety in low light conditions and the jacket is back by Endura’s 90 day satisfaction guarantee.
