Originally designed for the elite cyclist who prefers to wear a tighter fitting shoe for more direct pedalling sensations and thus requires the thinnest sock that technology permits.
This seamless tube sock is knitted using an ultra-fine, incredibly soft, microfilament with high elastane content for a snug fit and zero-crease interface with the shoe. It is designed with strategic mesh panels for breathability and 2 multi-channel ribbed padding zones, one in the metatarsal area, the other to protect the Achilles tendon.
You’ll barely notice you’re wearing it.

UNIQUE ROAD SHOES
"the upper closes around your foot to really make the shoe become one with the foot" Read a review by local rider Michael Huljich, here.
The first body-mapped cycling shoes for road cycling. Who best suits this shoe? A rider who won't risk performance by compromising comfort.
All Q36.5 experience and knowledge obtained from Q36.5 in-depth body mapping studies have been garnered to engineer a shoe that offers a novel fit. The UNIQUE Road Shoes™ offer the perfect balance between support, comfort and breathability.
The first body-mapped cycling shoes for road cycling.
The idea of the UNIQUE Shoes was born in the heart of the Dolomites, developed by a network of specialists in the sports shoe field. Q36.5 is lucky to live in a unique area where sports are extremely popular, thus Q36.5 has a rich source of expertise in both design and production of outdoor, mountaineering, climbing, ski, cross-country and trail running sport shoes and booties. Q36.5 has amalgamated all this expertise to help Q36.5 designs a truly unique cycling shoe that compliments Q36.5’s image and Q36.5 extreme vision of cycling.
Q36.5 goal is to achieve the best comfort possible for you during your ride. Each of Q36.5 Made in Italy products uses exclusive high quality fabrics. Q36.5 UNIQUE Shoes design and production are the outcome of our continuous innovative research, following sustainable best practices.
The outsole is created with a special mix of Full Carbon fiber and a vertebral column geometry (inspired by biomimetic engineering) that optimizes stiffness along the sole thus eliminating any excess material. The upper is a new one-piece construction without the common shoe tongue: it fits you like a sock and is created by using a single piece of microfiber and new proprietary three dimensional fabric.

A real Hybrid Jacket for the middle season and early winter, a more warmer sister of the Hybrid Que long sleeve and made specifically for women, which encloses innovative technologies designed only for the Women Collection, not simply a modified men Equipment with a women vestibility and fit.
Garments constructed with RSR (Regional Sweat Rate) body mapping will be breathable in differing degrees throughout the garment according to scientific research data collected regarding the various regional sweat rates of the athlete’s body. This more strategic use of breathable panels and varying densities allows for the construction of the lowest volume garment as well as the most stable body temperature during activity.
A pre-shape fit garment is cut to have the least resistance to the athlete’s body when in the position it assumes while riding. Riders will notice that pre-shaped garments will, when hung unworn from a hanger, naturally fall towards a riding position. This means that while the wearer may feel a minor degree of strain or notice small creases in the garment when standing upright and not on the bike he or she will be most comfortable and aerodynamic and have greatest ease of motion when riding.
This high level of versatility is achieved by astute combination of two key fabrics: the first is our proprietary UFHybridShell fabric, an insulating ribbed fleece material woven with such an extraordinary density as to give the fabric windblocking values which come close to those of laminated shell windstopper fabrics. In fact the name HybridShell is given by the fabric’s ability to mimic the characteristics of a fabric with a membrane (shell) while still maintaining the advantages of breathability and elasticity (for fit) of woven fabrics.This material has also undergone a treatment before being woven for water resistance and fast drying times. While the UFHybridShell is employed in core heat zones and the areas most affected by wind chill (chest, upper back, upper arms and front of forearms), the fast drying UFL1 fabric is employed in the back and underside of the forearms.

The new lighter and more breathable R.Shell Protection: check it out, it’s completely new!
This rain jacket is a true emergency friend designed to do only one thing: protect you perfectly and accompany you on every single ride thanks to its minimal weight.
This is a rain jacket designed in the spirit of the very first cycling gilets and professional alpine flash rain jackets. Welcome this true emergency friend designed to do only one thing: protect you perfectly and accompany you on every single ride thanks to its minimal weight.
The R. Shell Protection is constructed from a completely new proprietary 3-layer fabric, the UF 75ShellTM. The outer layer is an extremely compact, high density woven polyamide, while the second layer is an avant garde hydrophobic polyamide membrane with very high breathability (RET 4) and a 15.000 mm/l waterproof rating.
Every weak point of the traditional rain jacket’s paneling has been aggressively addressed: the collar area is hermetically sealed, all seams which compromise waterproofing have been moved to the least exposed areas of the jacket and tapered for a sealed protection, wrist cuffs are elasticated for a snug fit and easy access to jersey pockets is guaranteed by two subtle slits in the back. We have meticulously thought of every single detail to prevent any water infiltration; the water repellent zipper is covered by waterproof fabric and a reflective waterproof insert on the back keeps the jacket in place.
The R. Shell Protection jacket is versatile, it is designed to protect the high-intensity rider from sudden flashes of foul weather with the least amount of weight and volume. Weighing in at only a little more than a summer jersey, it’s so light and compact you don’t even notice it in your back pocket.

Jersey short sleeve L1 Pinstripe
The high-performance minimalism of the L1 Jersey with pinstripes in silver thread.
The jersey L1 Pinstripe is constructed from a polyester microfilament (Unique Fabric L1), which now contains a pure silver thread (2% of the fabric composition, equivalent to about 2 g of silver per jersey) which is also subtly visible, in a light ‘pintstriping’ running vertically through the weft of the fabric, which conjugates the need for breathability (given naturally by the fabric’s structure), superfast drying speed, lightest weight and ergogenic fit in order to produce the requisite amount of versatility required for the extremes of intense summer climbing and descending. In fact sensitive riders will immediately notice the extra comfort given the slightly thicker and softer fabric which, while in no way comprising breathability, pulls the moisture away from the body far more efficiently than the paper-thin fabrics used in other true lightweight jerseys. This offers significantly greater protection to the body while riding long descents immediately after arduous climbs.
Why the silver thread?
The introduction of the silver thread may be understood as a further fine-tuning of the fabric’s original raison d’être in wich the extraordinary natural properties of this material are carefully exploited in a performance-wear context.When activity becomes intense and the body emits an excess of heat and moisture with must be dealt with through conduction, evaporation and convection, the fabric instead benefits from silver’s high thermal conductivity (the greatest of any element present on earth: the silver) Thermal conductivity refers to silver’s ability to distribute heat quickly and evenly across its surface (like the silver spoon in a cup of hot tea, accelerating conduction of the body’s heat to the surface from wich it can evaporate. Evaporation itself is then accelerated by silver’s high level of conduction in a humid environment.
The anti-static dissipative effects of silver also improve micro-circulation and its anti-bacterial qualities ensure better hygiene and less perspiration odours. To conclude: the addition of the silver thread is visible, it is precious and it enhances the original performance characteristic of the L1 fabric.
Perhaps only an extremely sensitive rider will be able to “feel the difference” but this subtly visible thread is an authentic symbol of Q36.5’s dedication to present extreme vision of future of cycling clothing.
