Cycling industry insider Andy Clark takes an in depth look at the 11 unique fabrics that make up the 2014 Giordana EXO collection.
The EXO line includes a Bib Short and Summer Knicker, Short and Long Sleeve Summer Jersey, a tall compression sock, mid-cuff sock, gloves, and shoe covers are also available.
The unique construction of the EXO collection centers around the strategic placement of panels and 11 fabrics to enhance muscle performance, reduce drag, and keep the garments as light as possible. Compression is the key to extending performance on the bike and the Giordana EXO System was developed exclusively for this. These compressive materials help bring blood and oxygen from the areas that stay motionless while riding back to the body and heart to circulate and help recovery and performance on the ride.
EXO is an abbreviation for EXternal Optimization and this collection embodies that name by providing the recovery benefits of compression to your bib knickers and bib shorts while combining compression, aerodynamics, and super-lightweight fabrics to the long sleeve and short sleeve jerseys. Compression benefits can only be utilized on the forearms of the long sleeve jersey as restrictions around the stomach and chest suppress breathing and would allow less oxygen to enter the body.
