Chapter 8: Pro Team Shadow

Pro Team Shadow is the ultimate winter training system for changeable conditions. Engineered and fine tuned with WorldTour athletes, a new high-stretch fabric offers optimal comfort and freedom of movement, whilst a proprietary microporous membrane keeps you protected from adverse weather.

The Pro Team Shadow range was created to meet the demands of riding and racing through the toughest environments. Developed with insight from World Tour riders and rigorously tested in the climate chambers at Leeds Beckett University, every piece is designed to perform when conditions are at their worst.

Riders asked for a better alternative to traditional rainwear. Garments which are more aerodynamic with greater versatility and built for consistent effort in changeable weather. The result is a close-fitting, weather-resistant system that balances protection, breathability and speed.

Pro Team Shadow uses a proprietary, single layer microporous membrane with PFAS free water resistance. It’s lightweight and breathable for high-tempo efforts, but still keeps out wind and rain. Tested and proven in the WorldTour by EF Pro Cycling athletes, it significantly reduces reliance on heavy layering.

Noah Streif of EF Education-Aevolo asserts that: “The Shadow Winter Jacket was a game changer for winter riding. It effortlessly keeps out wind and cold in temperatures where I would be piling on three or four layers previously.”

Taped critical seams also increase protection from the elements, ensuring you can stay comfortable and protected even when the conditions turn.

Accompanying the Pro Team Shadow range are the new Pro Team Winter Tights III. A must-have for winter riding, evolved and re-engineered to offer ultimate protection and comfort.
