I quickly learned that women's gear can be very difficult to navigate but I have found that the Sedici brand is really trying to incorporate more options for women lately. I'm currently wearing the Sedici helmet, gloves, pants, and shoes and think they have been great for starter gear on a budget. The helmet offers a lot of padding and is very comfortable for one in the $300 price range while also being stylish and DOT/Snell certified. I just received the Sedici Solona leggings and think they are a great option if you can't afford the Pando leggings. At around $140 they are AA rated with included breathable hip and knee armor. They are very stretchy and high waisted so are curvy girl friendly. As for the shoes, I'm currently wearing the Sedici Sportiva boots and I can definitely see myself replacing these by next season because they are not the most protective. However for, $99 they still offer ankle armor and a sleek look. Another bonus is RevZilla/cycle gear offer added discounts for purchasing their brand with the riders preferred membership making it a great budget friendly option.
