Regular readers will know that we test clothing as a collection.

We believe that clothing that has been designed to work together is best worn together, much like a groupset of components. It looks better that way, too.

Conquest clearly shares our view, and classifies its garments in three categories: Core, Performance, and Essentials.

Additionally, they adhere to the bluesign® standard, one intended to remove substances harmful to man and the environment from the fabric production process.

We’ve been sent a comprehensive selection of clothing, some of which we’ll test later in the season. Today, however, well take a ‘first look’ at an outfit which believe we’ll see you through all but the coldest winter months: bib-short, base layer, short-sleeved jersey, gilet, and warmers.
