Prendas t-shirts Feb 2022Check out these cool pro team T-shirts from Prendas
Prendas Ciclismo has collaborated with Pro Cycling Trumps on a collection of T-shirts inspired by the colours of cycling’s biggest professional teams… and we reckon they’re very cool.
Let’s be honest, the stylishness of many cycling T-shirts is, um, questionable. We have to say, though, that these designs are a big hit in the road.cc office.
> 24 of the best cycling t-shirts
They’re all pretty abstract. The Groupama–FDJ T-shirt, for example, features the team’s blue, white and red colours (or blue, blanc, rouge, if you want to be all French about it) in a random criss-cross design.
The Astana T-shirt is a diamond design in team colours.
And the Ineos Grenadiers one will be recognisable to those who follow pro racing.
Each T-shirt features the UCI code for the relevant team: COF for Cofidis, BWB for Bingoal Pauwels Sauces WB (above), LIV for Liv Racing-Xstra, and so on.

There’s no other indication that the T-shirts are cycling related, although those in the know will get the association.
One particular favourite is the JVW design inspired by the Team Jumbo-Visma women's team colours. Very chic.
Oh, and the Lotto-Soudal one is neat too.
Anyway, head over to the Prendas website to see the lot. Men’s and women’s teams are included.
The T-shirts are made for 100% organic cotton (155g/m2) and are “printed in the UK in a renewable energy-powered factory”. They’re available for worldwide shipping at a price of £25 each.

I think that may be the case in France but I'm not sure. That may explain the lorry drivers use of the horn.

"...or blue, blanc, rouge, if you want to be all French about it" - I think you've been two thirds French about that.
Just off to polish my wing mirrors, for which I have no license.
Come ride with us, forever and ever..
The JVW looks a lot like the geometric pattern carpet that Danny rides his tricycle on through the hotel hallways in the Shining.
They're very stylish, and a little cryptic too, so you could wear one without giving anyone any free advertising, which I know is a consideration for some people.
There are 46 of them, which at £25 each works out at £1150 for the set, though I'm sure they'd knock that down to a grand if you asked nicely.
