Q36.5. Performance, technology and innovation in cycling

Q36.5 develops Made in Italy technical cycling apparel with a focus on thermoregulation, aerodynamics and ergonomic fit. Jerseys, bib shorts, jackets and accessories for men and women combine textile research with performance to tackle different conditions and levels of intensity.


Q36.5: cycling apparel designed for temperature management and high-intensity riding

Q36.5 cycling apparel is built around a clear principle: helping riders maintain more stable body conditions as pace, temperature and external conditions change. Garments combine different materials and strategically positioned panels according to body-mapping principles, with constructions developed to support thermoregulation, moisture management and freedom of movement in the riding position. The range spans from short sleeve cycling jerseys and bib shorts for summer rides to Hybrid garments, jackets and tights for colder seasons, together with dedicated women’s products, accessories and Adventure apparel.

Dottore, Gregarius, Clima and Hybrid: which Q36.5 line should you choose?

The right choice depends mainly on the type of ride and the conditions you expect to face. The Dottore Pro family is among the brand’s most technical expressions, with an ergonomic fit and constructions focused on support, stability and thermal management. Gregarius Pro combines a performance-oriented approach with a versatile construction suited to intense training and summer riding; its jerseys use differentiated zones to support ventilation and breathability. For demanding hot-weather conditions, the Clima line prioritises lightweight materials and airflow. When temperature, wind and intensity vary during the same ride, Hybrid garments combine protection and breathability through strategically positioned fabrics. The kit can be completed with cycling bib shorts or, in colder conditions, with cycling jackets.

Q36.5 fit, layering and complementary accessories

Many Q36.5 garments feature a close and pre-shaped fit designed to perform correctly when the body is in the riding position. Before purchasing, it is therefore important to compare your measurements with the size chart of the specific product, especially when moving from a Gregarius model to a more performance-focused Dottore construction. During transitional seasons, layering becomes particularly important: a Hybrid jersey can be paired with suitable cycling base layers according to the temperature instead of automatically choosing a heavier garment. The system can be completed with cycling gloves, cycling socks and, for riders looking for a more complete Q36.5 setup, road cycling shoes.

Frequently asked questions about Q36.5

What is the difference between Q36.5 Dottore Pro and Gregarius Pro?

Dottore Pro is focused on a particularly technical construction and a precise ergonomic fit, while Gregarius Pro offers a versatile performance-oriented approach for training and high-intensity rides. The choice should mainly depend on the desired fit, season and intended use.

When should I choose a Q36.5 Hybrid garment?

Hybrid models are particularly suitable when cold, wind, riding intensity or temperature can change significantly during the same ride. Different materials are strategically positioned across specific body zones to balance insulation, protection and heat dissipation.

Is the Q36.5 Clima line suitable for very hot weather?

Yes. The Q36.5 Clima line is specifically developed for hot conditions and intense efforts, with particular attention to low weight, ventilation, breathability and moisture management.

How does Q36.5 cycling apparel fit?

Fit varies between different product families, but many Q36.5 garments have a technical, close-fitting and pre-shaped construction designed for the riding position. It is therefore advisable to consult the size chart for each individual product rather than choosing solely according to the size worn in other brands.

How should Q36.5 technical cycling apparel be washed?

To help preserve elasticity, membranes and the properties of technical fabrics, follow the care instructions on the individual garment label, use mild detergents and avoid aggressive treatments. More technical garments require particular care to maintain the functionality of their materials over time.
