British Cycling recently celebrated the milestone of 100,000 women taking part in their Breeze programme, meaning more women than ever are taking up cycling in the UK.
As women take to the saddle, whether for fun or at a professional racing level, the demand for cyclewear designed specifically with females in mind has risen. One brand to witness significant growth is Stolen Goat, who have seen sales of women's kit double in the past year after expanding their range of female-oriented kit since launch in 2014.
As the appetite for women's cycling snowballs, boosted in no small part by the high-profile success of Olympic cyclists like Laura Trott, Stolen Goat continues to develop cycle wear for women which the brand say combines everyday practicality and high performance with products cut for a female fit - allowing for a wider hip and narrower side and shoulder area. The new Autumn/Winter range sees the brand's greatest investment in women's apparel to date, with the highly successful Orkaan range continuing into the new season.
Tim Bland, managing director of Stolen Goat, comments: "We've seen phenomenal growth in terms of both interest and sales of our Women's range and as a result women's cycling apparel represents our single biggest investment moving forward.
"At Stolen Goat we believe we are on the right track when it comes to technical specificity, fit and design - we've received many requests from male customers to replicate a women's design for them! Women's cycling has an exciting future and we're privileged to be part of it."
The Stolen Goat range of women's cycling clothing includes the Lycra-blend Bodyline Jersey (£60), a long-sleeve Thermal Jersey (£70) designed to regulate temperature in cooler weather, and the water-repellant and windproof Climb and Conquer Jacket (£139) with soft-brushed roubaix lining.
