The bespoke British apparel brand, Velobici, and the boutique British bike brand, Factor, have teamed-up on a new collection of apparel aptly dubbed Velobici X Factor Bikes, with a percentage of the proceeds will be donated to mental health charities around the world.
The collection comprises both men’s and women’s short-sleeve jerseys, bibshorts, gilets (vest), base layers, caps and socks that are centered around distinct red and grey colorways, along with an embroidered logo, while the bibshorts stick with traditional black that feature a mild compression fit and a bioceramic chamois pad.
The collaboration also has plans to offer a range of off-the-bike accessories later this summer that include a Polo shirt, T-shirt, socks and a jacket.

Jersey (two colourways)
“The Velobici x Factor jersey utilises an entirely new fabric that introduces a new level of comfort, to deliver unrivaled performance. Available in two colorways and featuring exquisite detailing, from the reflective piping edging the pockets to embroidered logo detailing and die-cast logo zippers.”
“We’ve used a fibre that has hydrophilic properties built into the polymer itself. This means that the incredible moisture-wicking properties are inherent throughout the fabric and will not degrade over multiple washes. The Velobici x Factor jersey is created for a close, race fit whilst allowing for total freedom of movement from the proprietary four-way stretch fabric. Our unique pocket system allows for ease of access to a phone or other valuables via the convenient side pocket.”
Base layer
“The foundation to every outfit, our underlayer uses a lightweight jacquard version of our new VB/Pro Hydroflow fabric.”
“Our baselayer fabric uses a fibre that has hydrophilic properties built into the polymer itself for incredible wicking to help keep you dry and aid temperature regulation. Made with flatlock stitching and four-way stretch for next-to-skin comfort. Available in three versions: sleeveless, short and long-sleeved. The Velobici x Factor baselayer fits neatly under a jersey and allows total range of movement with a four-way stretch fabric.”
