Gift givers searching for ideal items to give their cycling lady loves this Christmas need look no further than Velobici’s first offering for female cyclists.

The Ella-Paris and Ella-Nice collections offer a blend of warmth, softness, and style, according to the Leicester clothing firm of Chris Puttnam and Tara Love.

Ella-Paris includes cable knit arm warmers, a hat and collar, while Ella-Nice has a pointelle twist snood, pointelle hat and gloves.

All items are seamless to avoid irritating seams or labels, say Velobici. Ella-Paris is made entirely from exp organic South African Merino wool, while Ella-Nice is made from 70 per cent South American Merino and 30 per cent Alpaca wool.

Every item is made in and around Leicester as part of Velobici’s strategy to revive the area’s clothing industry.

The Ella-Paris gift set includes all three items and retails at £90. Ella-Nice sells for £80. Items can be bought individually from £25, and come individually wrapped in ‘beautiful packaging’, with free postage in the UK mainland.

The last date for orders to ensure Christmas delivery is Monday, 19 December.
