When the conditions turn nasty, wearing a hat under your helmet isn't just a good idea—it's a necessity. But honestly, almost every hat that's designed for more than just soaking up summer sweat is simply too bulky to wear in tandem with a helmet. Well, lucky for you, Specialized's Element Hat checks every box on your protection and comfort wish list. To start, it's made from one of the most venerable materials in the business—Gore WINDSTOPPER Soft Shell. This material is wind- and water-resistant, as well as being highly efficient at wicking moisture away from the skin while remaining extremely breathable. In terms of fit, the hat was designed to be worn under a helmet, so there isn't any cumbersome bulk to compromise the fit or safety features of your helmet. And lastly, it has full-coverage over the ears to further protect against the elements. - Gore WINDSTOPPER Soft Shell provides resistance to both wind and water, without sacrificing anything to breathability, comfort, or layering ability. - Designed to be worn under a helmet, which minimizes bulk and ensures that your helmet's fit and position won't be compromised. - Full coverage over the ears minimizes exposure to keep you warm when the wind is biting. - Reflective elements increase your visibility to motorists in low-light conditions. - Deflect UV 50+ protects your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays.

Mother Nature is always in flux, but mankind is both smart and adaptable. In other words, whenever she changes her mood, we always have the right tool for the job. And when that job is protecting against blustery, cold conditions, the right tool is our Deflect Comp Shoe Covers. Compared to our Element line of shoe covers, Deflect places more of a focus on wind resistance, so you'll find a stretchable construction with lightweight insulating properties. And to make getting in and out of the covers easy, we also included a rear zipper. - Deflect fabrics feature a good amount of stretch and a brushed back interior to ensure a light level of insulation. - Abrasion-resistant bottom and toe panels increase the lifespan. - A universal cleat opening makes these covers compatible with either road or mountain shoes. - Reflective elements. - Rear Velcro closure.

To make the Therminal Engineered Knee Warmers, we used a special cylindrical knitting machine that allows us to engineer areas of stretch, compression, and articulation while creating a seamless design. Lighter weight than our standard Therminal Warmer collection, this seamless version is perfect to stash in a jersey pocket when you need a little extra protection on a fast descent or for a long climb in the shadows. We use a yarn that offers good loft for trapping body heat and adding a good sense of durability, while a knit construction allows for excellent air permeability and breathability. This technique and design also comes with the added benefit of aligning with your knee, so the warmers will stay put with just the right amount of compression at the cuffs. - Therminal fabrics feature a brushed fleece interior that insulates while remaining highly breathable and effective at managing moisture. - Engineered construction minimizes edges and stitching, creating a smooth, compressive feel against your skin. - Knitted articulation and openings keep the warmers in place for the perfect fit. - Deflect UV 50+ protects your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays.
