Q36.5 Launches Dolomites Extreme, the New Spring/Summer 2025 Collection

Inspired by the extreme conditions often encountered in the Dolomites, the new spring/summer collection from the Italian brand is designed for performance.

Source: Press Release

Every garment in the Q36.5 collection has been designed and tested in the Dolomites and entirely manufactured within a 350 km radius of the company’s headquarters in Bolzano, Italy.

The pieces in the new collection are designed to excel in the unique extreme and volatile conditions found during summer rides with multiple high passes in the Dolomites, where epic climbs in the sun are followed by endless, winding, high-speed descents into valleys with totally different climatic conditions.

The flagship piece of the collection is the new Dolomites Extreme jersey, a tribute to extreme adventures in the Dolomites, made possible by choosing the ideal equipment, designed to make the athlete feel like a Scientiæ Officialis Investigator.

The term Research Scientist pays homage to the riders of the Q36.5 Pro Cycling team and all brand ambassadors, who play a crucial role in testing the unique features of Q36.5 equipment, pushing them to their limits every day and constantly providing the R&D department with valuable insights into the future of high-performance cycling apparel.

The new collection is divided into two product lines:

DOTTORE: The Dottore collection represents the pinnacle of Q36.5’s research. All garments are designed using 100% exclusive components to offer the cyclist the most advanced high-performance riding experience.

GREGARIUS: The Gregarius collection integrates the performance of the brand’s Dottore line into garments with a more familiar fit and feel to create a new gold standard for the modern cycling wardrobe.

The collection also includes the GRAPHIC JERSEY, inspired by the tradition of Italian craftsmanship and the great cycling achievements of Q36.5 ambassadors, including Vincenzo Nibali.

The products, for men and women, will be available online at q36-5.com and in the best cycling stores.

New Products

Gregarius Clima Dolomites Extreme Jersey

With a body-mapped fit, the Q36.5 Gregarius Clima Dolomites Extreme jersey perfectly hugs the torso, providing aerodynamic benefits.

The arm and shoulder areas are cut to prevent the fabric from bunching behind the neck and from flapping in the wind. The longer arm length also helps maintain an aerodynamic advantage.

The Dolomites Extreme jersey is inspired by and dedicated to the extreme adventures in the Dolomites that are made possible by choosing the right apparel.

Weight: 112 g

Dottore Pro Jersey

The Q36.5 Dottore Pro jersey is designed to offer superior aerodynamic performance thanks to its innovative material and reduced use of seams, helping the athlete excel during the most intense rides.

The jersey features Q36.5’s quick-drying three-dimensional fabric, to keep the cyclist cool even during the most strenuous efforts.

The special construction uses the brand’s exclusive fabric, enriched with silver threads, which gives the garment anti-static and anti-electrosmog properties.

The result is good thermoregulation and faster drying.

The aerodynamic cut uses a minimum of seams to prevent chafing, but thanks to the use of Q36.5 body-mapping technology, the cut follows the contours of the torso. Thanks to the body-mapped cut and the absence of seams on the front, the jersey glides against the wind, thus offering maximum advantage when the cyclist reaches speeds between 40 and 59 km/h.

Pre-shaped for the on-bike position, the Q36.5 Dottore Pro jersey features an invisible pocket system, laser-cut sleeves, and a smooth front zipper.

The unique material and ergogenic cut make this jersey versatile and comfortable in a wide range of temperatures, from the first days of spring to the hottest periods of summer.

Weight: 115 g
Sizes: XS to XXXL
Temperature: +18°C
New colors for 2025: Grisaille Blue, Brown, Optic White, Rust Red and Forest Green.

Dottore Pro Bib Short

The Q36.5 Dottore PRO bib short is ideal for demanding endurance training.

The ergogenic progressive compression fit has been developed to offer even greater muscle support, with an advanced chamois insert for improved comfort and performance.

The silver thread helps improve performance and recovery through its conductivity. It reduces the negative impact of natural electrical charges produced by the body during exercise, stimulates blood flow, and increases oxygen supply to cells. It also protects against ambient electromagnetic smog, thereby reducing muscle fatigue.

The cut of the Dottore Pro bib shorts has also been refined to increase overall comfort, reducing pressure on the abdominal and genital areas. The back panel has been carefully designed to ensure an optimal level of lumbar support that will improve rider comfort during long hours in the saddle and help improve performance.

Support and compression combine with natural freedom of movement to give the bib shorts a second-skin feel.

C-Interface technology and Q LAB Air Chamois represent a major advance for the Dottore Pro bib short. As an essential contact point, the chamois insert determines the level of comfort in the saddle that the cyclist will experience. This evolution of the chamois insert uses different seams that allow it to integrate into the bib short pattern. This effectively reduces friction and material overlap.

The design is the result of ten years of experimentation and testing. The development of new materials and the continuous improvement of the Q36.5 C-Interface ensure maximum freedom of movement, breathability, and comfort.

The ergonomic shape of the chamois guarantees an ideal interface between the saddle and the cyclist with very high-density open-cell sculpted foam ensuring cushioned protection against road vibrations.

Weight: 150 g
Sizes: XS to XXXL
Temperature: +18°C
New color for 2025: Blue Navy.
Also available in Black.

Gregarius Pro Bib Short

The Q36.5 Gregarius Pro bib short has been designed to be super effective as an endurance-focused long-distance bib short. It not only features high-performance materials with an advanced patented chamois insert, but it also offers a Q36.5 Democratic ergogenic fit to introduce that extra level of freedom of movement, which can become so important on rides extending beyond 4 or 5 hours.

Made from 100% recycled yarns, the six Italian materials used for the bib short have been strategically placed to offer muscle support where it is most needed, while a minimum of seams are used to ensure total comfort without friction or pressure points. The compression feel is supportive without being restrictive.

As an integral part of the Q36.5 “3 Points of Contact” system, the Gregarius Pro bib short uses the chamois insert specially developed in-house by the brand to ensure total comfort in the saddle, regardless of the cyclist’s style or position.

The adaptive insert is unique because it is not sewn to the back of the chamois, but rather integrated into the pattern to reduce friction and improve the stability of the chamois insert on the saddle.

The extremely soft lining material and the ever-refined Q36.5 C-Interface shape guarantee maximum freedom of movement, breathability, and comfort. The ergonomic shape ensures an ideal interface between the saddle and the cyclist with very high-density open-cell sculpted foam ensuring cushioned protection against road vibrations.

Weight: 175 g
Sizes: XS to XXXL

Gregarius Pro Damask Jersey

Designed for ambitious cyclists who demand the best from their equipment, the Q36.5 Gregarius Pro Damask jersey uses exclusive materials and an aerodynamic body-mapped cut to offer a professional-level fit for high-intensity rides.

Q36.5 conducted performance studies to determine the best materials and the most effective placement for panels and seams. The result is a jersey that has no fabric bunching at the back of the neck, which causes irritation and drag.

The sleeves are made with a slightly ribbed fabric that does not quite meet the back of the neck. The honeycomb mesh back panel starts at the nape, extends over the shoulders, and goes down to the top of the pockets. This design works with the material characteristics to ensure a tight and effective fit.

The front panel is made from an ultra-breathable micro-perforated material, resulting in an extremely lightweight jersey weighing only 112 grams, perfect for hot summer rides.

The 3-pocket system in lightweight mesh offers exceptional storage space without adding bulk or increasing aerodynamic drag.

Designed to store a wide range of small essentials such as wind vests, gels, phones, and tool kits, the mesh expands when needed and then reforms to hug the lower back when not in use.

Weight: 112 g
Sizes: XS to XXXL
Temperature: +18°C
Available in Black, Purple, Blue, and in limited editions with the signatures of the brand’s Ambassadors.
