Sugoi
Sugoi RS Zero glove
Let's get this clear right off the bat, despite their Arctic good looks, toasty appearance and draught-excluding cuff the Sugoi RS Zero is not really a Winter glove, in fact the closer it gets to the eponymous Zero the more they become thermally transparent, which is awkward. And they aren't much use if it's raining or there's a lazy wind either as they seem to be entirely bereft of waterproofness and extra wind-stopping abilities. Not really a glove for the usual British Winter then, maybe it's warmer in Sugoivia that time of year.
Sugoi HOV womens jacket
I absolutely love this Sugoi HOV jacket. It looks and feels great, and performs really well on the bike too! HOV stands for Human Operated Vehicle and the line is aimed at the commuter market. It’s designed ‘to look as good in the office as it does on the bike’ and it really does: I confess I’ve worn this jacket more off the bike than on it, but I've had a load of compliments about my new gear!
Sugoi RS Zero bib tight
These are good mid-weight longs. The main fabric offers much more warmth than standard Lycra and, although it isn’t as insulating as a deep Thermo-roubaix, windproof knee panels keep the cold air out a treat without noticeably affecting breathability. There’s more windproofing – provided by a polyurethane laminate – at the front of the torso although, under a jersey or jacket, it’s less useful there. You might want more warmth for the really bitter days, but for most off-season conditions these will do the job.
