When it comes to Cycle Riding Clothes, there's always something new. From lighter fabrics to better fit, every season brings an upgrade. But one feature that’s making a serious comeback is cargo pockets. You might be wondering are they just a cool add-on, or do riders really need them.

Let’s talk about why cargo pockets in cycling jerseys are more than a trend and why the Squadron SS Cargo Jersey by Spatzwear proves they are a must-have for every rider.

Why Riders Need More Storage

Whether you're heading out for a quick ride or planning a long weekend loop, you need a few essentials. For example, snack, a multi-tool, maybe your phone and some cash or Sometimes a rain shell or even an extra tube.

Sure, you could toss all of that into a saddlebag. But what if your jersey could carry it for you—without the bulk?

That’s where cargo pockets come in. They give you space to carry more, without ruining the fit or slowing you down. They're especially helpful if you're doing longer rides, gravel routes, or bikepacking.
