Santini SMS Giro D'Italia Bike Jersey Maglia Nera 2017

To celebrate 100 editions of the Giro D’Italia, Santini have produced a wonderfully fine array of kits. The product and design departments banded together and worked painstakingly to produce garments which reflected not only sentimentality, but prestige, influence and power too. We were so stoked with the range that we’ve acquired a decent amount of it ourselves. Enjoy!

Here we have the incredibly interesting Maglia Nera jersey, which was between 1946-1951, awarded to the last rider in the general classification, leading some riders to hiding or puncturing their tires in attempts to take home the strange prize! The special version put out this year however is special for its build. It has a long, covered zipper, comfortable triple back pocket made from Cyber Rider fabric, and a front made from Think Opaco fabric. This guarantees the perfect breathability, and, combine this with raw cut sleeves, you’ve got a practical and stylish jersey ready for racing.
