Cycling accessories: Socks, Hats, Protectors, Warmers, Buff and Towel
A cyclist's body cools from the periphery: the toes, hands, neck, and ears. Even the best jacket won't help if your feet are frozen. Discover the complete guide to accessories that ensure comfort every kilometer.

Why are accessories not an addition, but a necessity?
During exercise, the body diverts blood to the working quadriceps and glutes, drastically reducing blood flow to the distal parts of the body: toes, hands, and ears. This is compounded by the rush of air and water thrown from under the front wheel onto the shoes. The right accessories provide a protective shield for these most vulnerable areas.
Feet & Ventilation
1. LC series cycling socks – zoned construction
Never wear regular cotton socks on your bike – cotton absorbs sweat like a sponge, which in stiff cycling shoes can lead to painful blisters, chafing, and a burning sensation. INONI LC series socks feature a zoned design with ventilation channels under the foot, a compression midfoot cuff, and an elastic aero cuff that stays in place during long hours of riding.
Breathable, quick-drying polyamide fibers. A special mesh zone over the toes promotes air circulation, while an elastic midfoot band stabilizes the sock inside road and mountain bike shoes.
Designed for intense uphill training and hot days, the cuff height is optimally compliant with cycling standards, and the seamless finger joint eliminates any chafing.
2. Helmet caps – summer ones with a visor and insulated ones
A classic cycling cap serves three key functions: its cotton-polyester sweatband keeps sweat from dripping into your eyes, the visor shields you from harsh sun or rain, and the fabric protects your scalp from sunburn through the helmet's vents. In temperatures below 12°C, a microfleece cap covering your ears and sinuses is essential.
An iconic piece of cycling style, it absorbs sweat from your forehead, preventing eyes from stinging on long climbs. The stiff, flip-up visor protects against blinding sun or pouring rain.
Front sweatband UV protection under the helmet Flexible visor
A must-have from late fall to early spring. The ultra-thin microfleece construction fits under a helmet without compressing the head. The deep profile fully protects the ears and back of the head from the cold.

Cycling shoes have ventilation holes in the sole and toe. These holes keep your feet cool in the summer, but in the fall and winter, they become an entry point for icy air and water. Shoe covers close this thermal gap:
A shield protects your feet from icy wind, rain, and slush. A waterproof neoprene coating, a sealed zipper with a locking system, and a reinforced sole resist abrasion while walking.
Flexible, aerodynamic covers for cycling shoe buckles and BOA dials. They reduce air resistance, protect your expensive shoes from dirt and grit on the trail, and ensure your Fluo is visible from hundreds of meters away.
A favorite among the pro peloton for chilly mornings, these sleeves transform a short-sleeved summer jersey into a long-sleeved version in just 10 seconds. A silicone gripper prevents slippage, and they can be rolled up and stored in a small pocket.
A seamless neck warmer that protects your throat, neck, and mouth from cold air. It can be used as a headband, a helmet balaclava, or a dust mask on dry gravel roads.

Indispensable for marathons, bikepacking trips, and post-workout. Folded, it's the size of a palm, absorbs four times its weight in water, and dries in minutes when hung on a pannier or backpack.
