Retro cycling jersey Belgian Champion Molteni - REDTED
€59,50Cycling Jerseys - Men - REDTED
A replica retro cycling jersey from our exclusive RedTed collection. With the look of the past and the comfort of the present.
The RedTed Performance retro cycling jerseys have a silicone grip at the back and an elastic band with a grip at the front. Together with the elastic band at the (somewhat longer) sleeve, this ensures the jersey stays perfectly in place while cycling. The fabric is 100% polyester with a micro-hole ball pattern (breathable and lightweight).
These cycling jerseys are aerodynamic - so 'slim fit'; just a bit more tailored than the standard Retro Cycling jerseys. Because of the flatlock stitching, the jersey is sturdy and the seams do not irritate. The cycling jerseys are finished with a hidden long YKK heavy duty zip and have 3 large back pockets which are closed with an elastic band. The RedTed Performance cycling jerseys are available in 8 sizes, from S till 5XL.
ATTENTION: 'Italian' sizing and 'slim fit' so be sure to choose one size bigger than your usual European dress size. CHECK OUT THE SIZING TABLE.

Belgian Champion cycling jersey Molteni Arcore - 1971-1972
The Belgian champion's jersey in the Molteni version. This comfortable aerodynamic cycling jersey is a replica of the National Champion jersey of Belgium. This shirt has been worn by two riders from the Molteni team. Eddy Merckx wore it in 1971 when he joined Molteni and Herman Springel could take over the jersey from his famous teammate after winning the National title himself. Herman wore the National Tricolore in 1971-1972.
Eddy Merckx in the Belgium Champion Tricolore of Molteni
Eddy Merckx got the black-yellow-red jersey in 1970 when he won the National Championship of Belgium with the FAEMA team. When he switched to Molteni, the jersey moved with him and the name Molteni was put on the jersey. In 1971, his teammate Herman van Springel won the national title, and so he was able to take the jersey over. Herman Van Springel was a great cyclist who became Eddy Merckx's chief helper on the Molteni team in 1971. Van Springel's nickname is "Monsieur Bordeaux-Paris" because he won this race seven times.
The Italian professional cycling team Molteni was active in the cycling world for a long time, from 1958 to 1976. Molteni was a salami producer based in Arcore, in the region of Milan. The team won 663 stages in total.
