About Café du Cycliste

Café du Cycliste designs cycling and outdoor apparel for men and women who ride road, gravel and beyond. The brand's range covers jerseys, bibshorts and tights, jackets and gilets, base layers, socks, gloves, caps and bags, alongside off-bike pieces such as sweaters, t-shirts and shorts. Collections are organised around riding styles including Classic, Race, Audax, Outlands, Active and Explore, reflecting different terrains and levels of intensity.

Based in Nice, the brand sells primarily through its own website and operates a small number of its own boutiques, including locations in Nice, Paris, Majorca, Munich and Ventoux, some of which also offer bike rental. Café du Cycliste is also involved in the broader cycling community through a gravel team and rider ambassadors, and publishes editorial content and local riding guides for destinations such as Nice, Majorca and Ventoux. It positions itself around a lifestyle connected to cycling rather than performance racing alone.
