Product News – Get into Wool

Advertorial from Prendas
Once upon a time woolen jerseys were worn year round by racing cyclists and whilst fabrics have changed over the decades since I raced in them, in country’s like Britain where the weather turns cold, then the retro looking woolen jersey not only looks cool but feels great on.

Prendas, clothing specialists focusing on the unique and the stylish, have three jerseys worth a look:

Bianchi/Campagnolo Retro Wool Jersey – Short Sleeve
50% Wool/50% Acrylic – £119.95

BianchiWool

After the success of the 2011 Italian Champion Wool Jersey, Santini have produced this exclusive, limited edition Bianchi/Campagnolo wool jersey to celebrate the 2012 Felice Gimondi Gran Fondo.

The ‘scritta’ on the front and shoulders is embroidered as in the days before sublimation and man made fibres made it possible to print on cycle jerseys. The jersey also features the rainbow bands on the sleeves and collar just like Sgnr Gimondi wore back in the day. The jersey has a 14cm Santini-branded zip and the rear pockets have buttons which are embossed with the Santini name.

ItalianChampWool

New in 2015, this Italian champion retro jersey takes it’s design from the jerseys of the 1960s, with the front zip replaced with the collars and button up front that we are used to seeing in archive black and white photos. Double front pockets complete the authentic retro look, as do the three button-down rear pockets along with retro-looking Santini clothing labels on the front and back of the garment.

This retro wool maglia rosa is made to look like the leaders jersey of the Giro D’Italia of the 1950’s, with the front zip replaced with the collars and button up front that we are used to seeing in archive black and white photos.

With embroidered Giro D’Italia lettering on the chest, the jersey also features double front pockets, the three rear pockets along with mother of pearl buttons as well as Santini clothing labels on the front and back of the garment.
