Desire: True Romance with Gore and Fabian Cancellara

Desire: True Romance with Gore and Fabian Cancellara

Best known for keeping us warm and dry, enter Gore-Wear, Fabian Cancellara’s premium race range and Romance’s jazzy collaboration Shakedry.


While Gore have been quietly producing the vast majority of the market’s weatherproof fabrics for cycling applications, it’s easy to forget their extensive range of technical kit under their own name; Gore-Wear. Largely designed alongside four-time World Time Trial Champion, Fabian Cancellara, the range is shooting for the stars and oozing with technical prowess.


We had a selection in to shoot for Issue 19.8 of Rouleur, including their jazzy collaboration with British kit brand, Romance. A tie-dye Shakedry jacket – finally some colour for arguably the most water-proof jacket available.


For more from this shoot, check out our bike-breakdown or to see it in pristine print, buy a copy of the issue at shop.rouleur.cc

The pro look, just a smidge of ankle. Socks by Adam Blythe
Sleeves are laser finished, seams taped – seriously technical
Cut as you would expect – racy. Thanks Cancellara
