Paul Smith's cycling offshoot, 531, has returned with a new collection of ultra-light, super-breathable clothing that combines performance and style.

The range was launched back in 2014 with the aim of creating comfortable riding gear that remains sharp and pleasing on the eye. For this summer collection, fabric weights have been reduced and a priority was placed on keeping sweat off the skin, ensuring good airflow and allowing your body to breath.

When worn together, the brightly-colored individual pieces are said to combine to create a perfect three-layer performance system: a wicking base layer, a temperature controlling mid-layer, and a protective outer layer.

The new Paul Smith 531 collection is available to shop in full over at the brand's online store.
