Life-long cycling enthusiast Andy Storey explores the gradual evolution of the jersey, from the retro designs of the 1950s up to today’s high-tech, lightweight gear. With more than 200 examples each accompanied by photography and analysis, The Art of the Jersey is the perfect book for the road-racing enthusiast and the modern style-conscious cyclist.

Andy explaining how the book came about says “Joe (from the publishing house) found my jersey website ( http://cycling-jersey-collection.com ), contacted me and proposed that I turn it into a book. I figured it would be fun which it was as well as a bit of hard graft which I don’t mind.”
