About us
Jelenew is a high-performance women's cycling and sports apparel brand cofounded by World Champion and Olympic Medalist Marion Clignet. Built on structural innovation and female-specific designs, Jelenew seamlessly integrates functionalities with aesthetics.
Founded in 2021, inspired by cycling, Jelenew provides sportswear that perfectly blends performance and aesthetics for women and the extended lifestyle collection based on speed and power sports meets more diversified needs of women on the move. Jelenew, joined by world women's cycling champion Marion Clignet for technical guidance, founded "Sprinters Jersey Lab" based on Jelenew's patented technology Curvetec® and 30 years of cycling experience to lead industry innovation.With a DNA of French haute couture design, Jelenew uses three-dimensional draping technique to fit and support key muscle groups, especially during the active movement of pedaling. Providing crucial support for core muscles, back, shoulders, hips, and thighs to enhance women's cycling experience. Technological fabrics are tailored for different body zones to provide maximum mobility for the female body. Highly versatile in various sports scenarios, Jelenew's proprietary Curvetec® technology is a guarantee of performance and aesthetics.Jelenew also actively collaborates with non-profit organizations such as Amfar, the World Women's Organization in Salt Lake City, and Dream Big! in Boston. Jelenew has long supported the French "La Marion Clignet" charity cycling to encourage women of all countries, skin colors, and ages to gain physical and mental strength from sports. Jelenew also champions the cause of women's rights and equality as its core mission.
Throughout Jelenew Technological Co-founder Marion Clignet's 30-year cycling career, she overcame the hardships of training and the unfair treatment of women in the competition but never found cycling apparel truly designed for women, fitting their anatomical structure, physiological needs, and aesthetic demands. After joining Jelenew, Clignet co-founded "Sprinters Jersey Lab" with the Jelenew design team—a lab that could lead a revolution in sports apparel. Together we work with female athletes, sports enthusiasts, and leading experts in sports science, apparel engineering, and other industries to create top-notch products with a globalized vision, just for women.
Inspired by the curves of the female body, utilizing drape tailoring and dynamic customization, combining multiple curvilinear designs together, we have created smart cycling apparel that adapts to your shape and movement, supports and protects your key muscle groups such as your core, lower back, shoulders, hips and thighs and effectively improves performance. We call it Curvetec®. It is more than just apparel; It is a protective curved design system, providing complete body support that adapts to the female silhouette as you go through the pedaling motion. The curved lines that wrap your body with firmness and comfort, enhance your ergonomics and performance, just like A Perfect Hug, Move with confidence and freedom. Discover a new level of cycling experience.
