News: Special Santini Collection for Roubaix

Santini is celebrating the Paris-Roubaix, one of the five Great Classics, with two special collections. One collection contains a jersey and a technical t-shirt, for both men and women, inspired by the colours and patterns used to mark out the cobblestone sectors along the route. The L’Enfer du Nord capsule collection, however, features fiery colours in a nod to the Hell of the North. The jerseys and technical t-shirts of both collections are combined with bibshorts, baselayer, jacket, vest and accessories.

The Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift takes place on Saturday, April 16th this year, with the men’s race, the 119th edition of the Paris-Roubaix, starting the following day. Santini is launching two new ranges inspired by the race: the Paris-Roubaix line and the L’Enfer du Nord capsule collection.
In the Paris-Roubaix range, the graphics in both the men’s and women’s jerseys and technical t-shirts are inspired by the colours and patterns used on the race route to mark out the cobbled sectors and rate their difficulty.

Santini has also created a capsule collection called L’Enfer du Nord (the Hell of the North). Here the colours are inspired by the fires of hell – and the hellishly difficult stretches that the cyclists face into in the very toughest five-start sectors.

The perfect combination with both the Paris-Roubaix and L’Enfer du Nord jerseys and technical t-shirts are bibshorts and baselayers, in a choice of men’s and women’s, a vest, a jacket and various other accessories. The jacket is made with Polartec® NeoShell, the world’s most breathable waterproof fabric technology.

For years the outerwear industry has prioritized excessively high waterproof ratings that sacrifice the breathable performance needed during physical activity. NeoShell® provides the strength and durability of a weather protective fabric, while still allowing dynamic air exchange and comfortable full range of motion.

By engineering optimal pore size and placement, NeoShell® releases heat and perspiration without high pressure build up. Continuous air exchange enhances natural thermoregulation, while still providing the needed protection from all outside elements.

The new Paris-Roubaix collection was created as part of Santini’s agreements with A.S.O., enriching a partnership that also spans supplying the leader jerseys for the Tour de France and capsule collections for all of the races on the A.S.O. circuit.

The collection is available from www.santinicycling.com as well as from select cycling stores worldwide.
