High-end mountain bike apparel maker Kitsbow is adding a line of base layers as well as arm and knee warmers to its collection.

The new V-Neck and Henley base layers are made from a blend of naturally anti-microbial Merino wool and nylon yarn to wick moisture from the rider’s skin. Both the V-Neck and Henley are available in sizes XS through XL. Pricing for both base layers is $85.

Like the baselayers, Kitsbow’s arm and knee warmers are constructed from a blend nylon and Merino wool, with the addition of spandex to maintain their shape. Kitsbow adds a layer of Schoeller softshell material to the elbows and knees for increased durability. Pricing for the arm and knee warmers is $80.
