GripGrab: clothing and accessories for riding all year round
Expertise developed in Scandinavian conditions
Born in Denmark in 2000, GripGrabdevelops its cycling clothing and equipment in an environment where cold, rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations are part of a cyclist’s daily life. This experience has shaped the brand’s "Ride All Year" philosophy: offering gear that allows you to keep riding throughout the year, from lightweight summer jerseys to gloves, jackets, and overshoes designed to face winter conditions.
Why choose GripGrab cycling clothing?
At Routes&Roads, we share this vision of cycling: a ride, a bike trip, or a gravel adventure doesn't end when summer is over. Off-season bikepacking, long days in the rain, or traveling to colder regions simply require the right equipment. GripGrab clothing responds particularly well to this approach with gear designed for comfort and protection in varied conditions. A philosophy that invites you to ride, travel, and explore all year long, rather than waiting for the perfect weather.
Which GripGrab cycling clothing and equipment should you choose?
On a bike, a good outfit must primarily be able to adapt to the conditions. Temperature, wind, rain, intensity of effort, or duration of the ride: GripGrab allows you to build your kit layer by layer. An approach particularly well-suited to road cycling, gravel, and bikepacking, where the weather can easily change over the kilometers.
Cycling gloves: protecting your hands from cold, wind, and rain
It’s hard to enjoy a ride when your fingers start getting cold. GripGrab cycling gloves cover different seasons and levels of protection, with lightweight, thermal, windproof, or waterproof models. For gravel and adventure rides, the GripGrab EXPLR RC Maxoffer comfort and protection on long days spent on the bike.

Choosing your cycling clothing according to the weather
The three-layer principle
To stay comfortable on a bike just as on foot when the weather changes, the three-layer principle remains a safe bet. A breathable base layer wicks away moisture, a second layer provides warmth, and a third protects against wind and rain. This combination especially allows you to easily add or remove a layer during a road bike ride, gravel ride, or a day of bikepacking.

Which GripGrab clothing for winter riding?
In winter, the goal isn't to layer on as many clothes as possible, but to stay warm without accumulating moisture during the effort. A GripGrab winter cycling outfit can combine a breathable thermal base layer, a long-sleeve jersey, a protective jacket, and long bib tights. The extremities deserve special attention: winter gloves, overshoes, warm socks, and a cap under the helmet often make all the difference during cold rides.
Which GripGrab clothing for riding in the rain?
In the rain, opt for waterproof and breathable cycling clothing capable of limiting water ingress without turning your jacket into a sauna as soon as your effort increases. A rain jacket, waterproof trousers, and overshoes form a good base for gravel, commuting, or bike travel. A cap or helmet cover can complete the outfit when several hours in the rain are on the agenda.
How to dress for cycling in mid-season?
Spring and autumn are often the most difficult times to choose your cycling outfit. A cool start can quickly give way to sun, wind, or a shower. It is therefore better to rely on several lightweight layers that are easy to remove: jersey, thin thermal layer, windproof jacket, light gloves, and compact accessories. In gravel or bikepacking, keeping extra protection in a bag prevents many unpleasant surprises.
How to dress for cycling in summer?
In summer, it's all about lightness and breathability. A short-sleeve cycling jersey, bib shorts adapted to long hours in the saddle, and lightweight socks make up the essentials of your outfit. GripGrab also offers caps and accessories that are useful when the sun accompanies your ride. For long distances and bikepacking, a lightweight jacket remains useful for early morning starts, descents, or changing weather.
Useful information about GripGrab clothing
What is the difference between shoe covers and overshoes?
The terms shoe covers and overshoes are often used interchangeably to refer to the same type of equipment: protection worn over cycling shoes. At GripGrab, the models are distinguished primarily by their level of protection. Some are lightweight and aerodynamic, while others prioritize water-repellency or thermal insulation to protect feet from the cold, wind, and rain in winter.
How to wash and maintain your GripGrab clothing?
To preserve the technical properties of your GripGrab cycling clothing, prioritize the instructions on the label of each product. Washing at a low temperature and using a gentle cycle is generally preferable for cycling jerseys, bib shorts, jackets, and accessories. Also, avoid the systematic use of fabric softener on technical fabrics, as it can impair their breathability and certain water-repellent properties.
Are GripGrab products eco-friendly?
GripGrab is working to reduce the environmental impact of its clothing and cycling equipment by incorporating more recycled materials and developing products designed to last. The brand also communicates about reducing packaging and a more responsible production process. The level of commitment varies, however, depending on the product: to choose, check the composition and specific features of each piece of GripGrab clothing.
