From Jouy-en-Josas to the Baie des Anges. It's a design technique as French as France and as iconic as Eiffel. Now re-imagined, reconstructed and used across a range of performance road apparel for riding high climbs in high style.

 

Inspired by those icons of French cycling history that roused young cyclists on to their saddles and out on to the road, the narrative unfolds on the fabric. The riders: Robic the Goat, Hinault the Badger, Fignon the Professor. The places: - the Giant of Provence, and a nod to the cobbles of the Grammont across the border. The roadside icon: El Diablo. And finally, maybe the greatest scene of them all: Anquetil and Poulidor going shoulder to shoulder on the Puy de Dôme.
