Endura

For road cycling, the main ranges are FS260-Pro (competition), Pro SL (high-end versatile) and Xtract (endurance/cyclosportif). The FS260-Pro range is Endura’s competition line: ultra-light jerseys, Pro bib shorts with high-density chamois. The Pro SL range offers excellent value for money at a more affordable price than the entry-level competition range. Endura offers three pad sizes (narrow, medium, wide) to suit all body types.

Yes, this is one of Endura’s key specialities: clothing for challenging conditions. The Luminite range is specifically designed for visibility and waterproofing in wet weather. Endura’s MTSL (ultra-light, waterproof) and GV500 jackets are among the highest-rated on the market for their weight-to-waterproofing ratio. The brand uses Gore-Tex technology and its own long-lasting DWR treatments to ensure lasting waterproofing.

Yes, Endura has been a supplier to the Movistar Team (Nairo Quintana, Alejandro Valverde) for several seasons. The brand also supplies British cycling teams and downhill mountain bikers. These partnerships allow Endura to test its ranges in race conditions before they go on sale.

Yes, Endura’s FS260-Pro bib shorts are regularly cited as among the best road bib shorts on the market. The 600 Series chamois (high-density, multi-density gel) is designed for long rides of over 5 hours. The Xtract fabric (high-density microfibre) offers optimal compression without restricting circulation. Available in three saddle widths to suit different body types, this is a rare selling point on the market.

Yes, the MT500 (enduro/trail MTB) and Hummvee (all-mountain/casual) ranges are Endura’s MTB staples. For gravel riding, the GV500 range offers waterproof clothing suitable for all-season adventure rides. Hummvee shorts with built-in bibs are very popular for MTB and long-distance gravel riding.

Endura sizes (XS–XXL for tops, 30–40 for bib shorts) follow a slightly snug standard, according to user feedback. It is generally recommended to go one size up if you are between sizes. Endura publishes detailed measurement charts (chest, waist and hip circumferences) on its website to guide your choice. The FS260-Pro and Pro SL jerseys have a very close-fitting, ‘race fit’ cut.

Yes, Endura offers a complete winter range: Roubaix thermal bib shorts, waterproof winter jackets and shoe covers. The Thermolite II bib shorts feature a warm Roubaix fabric on the inside for rides below 10°C. The Endura Hummvee jacket (softshell) is a benchmark for mountain biking in cold and wet weather. For winter road cycling, the waterproof ‘Primaloft’ Pro SL jacket offers warmth and waterproofing.

The Pro SL is more versatile (good ventilation, race fit), whilst the FS260-Pro is more competition-oriented, featuring ultra-lightweight fabrics. The Pro SL is ideal for recreational cyclists looking for a technical jersey suitable for all conditions. The FS260-Pro is recommended for races and rides in hot weather where lightness and breathability are priorities. Both ranges include 3 rear pockets + 1 zipped pocket, standard for road jerseys.

Durability is a key focus for the Endura brand, which guarantees its products against manufacturing defects. Endura’s Hummvee II (MTB) and Strike (road) gloves are renowned for lasting several seasons with intensive use. Endura long gloves (autumn/winter) incorporate Windproof materials tested in Scotland in all weather conditions. Endura’s after-sales policy is renowned for its responsiveness in the event of a manufacturing fault.
