Whether you’re sprinting, climbing and descending on the road, commuting home in the dark or smashing through some technical singletrack in the rain, Giant apparel is purpose-built for all riders in all conditions. Boosting performance by helping to regulate body temperature and keep the elements out, Giant Textura™ fabric technology helps you stay warm or cool, as well as dry and comfortable in even the most changeable conditions.

Giant apparel is designed around the three critical factors of rider comfort management: heat, moisture and airflow. From full waterproof capability to maximum breathability to optimal heat dissipation, all of our technical fabrics bring the highest performance level possible, allowing more riders everywhere to unleash their full performance.
ULTIMATE COOL FOR THE HOTTEST DAYS
Super lightweight, fast-drying and ultra-ventilated UV resistant fabric keeps you dry and comfortable in the heat.
Rapid Moisture Wicking
TransTextura fabric is engineered with permanent denier gradient transfer technology using capillary action to pull moisture away from the skin to the fabric surface for rapid evaporation and quick drying.
Optimal Air Permeability
TransTextura’s knitted fabric featuring micro vents to increase breathability offers ultimate air permeability, keeping you cool and comfortable as the mercury rises.
4-Way Stretch Knit
Strong elastic fibers are knitted to create a 4-way stretch to meet the dynamic needs of performance cycling.
ABRASION RESISTANCE
ShieldTextura fabric is specially engineered with high density fish-scale pattern knitting for an authentic look and soft feel combined with enhanced abrasion resistance and toughness. Tested and proven by the Martindale fabric abrasion test (7,000 rubs) and the fabric snagging spiked ball test (2,000 times) without fuzzing, pilling and snagging.
RAPID MOISTURE WICKING
ShieldTextura fabric is engineered with permanent denier gradient transfer technology using capillary action to pull moisture away from the skin to the fabric surface for rapid evaporation and quick drying.
OPTIMAL AIR PERMEABILITY
ShieldTextura knitted fabric featuring micro vents to increase breathability offers ultimate air permeability, keeping you cool and comfortable as the mercury rises.
BREATHABLE PROTECTION FOR THE MOST VARIABLE DAYS
Durable water-repellent and wind resistant laminate fabric engineered to fend off the windiest and rainiest conditions, while still maintaining outstanding breathability, helps your body regulate temperature in variable weather.
Water Protection
ProTextura Fabric is tested to withstand 10,000mm of water pressure, which means it will keep you dry and protected in even the heaviest of downpours.
Wind Protection
ProTextura Fabric is densely woven and highly wind resistant, offering air permeability but still protecting your body temperature from the sudden drop caused by wind chill.
Moisture & Warmth Control
No matter the ambient temperature, your body still sweats when you’re moving. Giant ProTextura Fabric boasts 10,000g/m2 of breathability, allowing water vapor to escape so you can stay comfortable.
INSULATED WARMTH FOR THE COLDEST DAYS
Exclusive synthetic fleece creates thermal pockets to help maintain comfortable body temperature.
Moisture Vapor Dispersion
Even on cold days, your body does not stop sweating, which can be uncomfortable if moisture stays trapped. ThermTextura fabric is highly breathable and allows moisture vapor to escape, allowing you maintain a comfortable temperature as you ride.
Heat Retention
ThermTextura's exclusive lofted fleece creates thermal pockets that retain body warmth but allow excess heat to escape before it can cause moisture saturation and discomfort.
