As part of the celebrations for the International Tourism Fair in Madrid, Santini and La Vuelta will present six new jerseys dedicated to the various stages of the event.
The jerseys were made by historic Italian brand Santini Cycling wear, which will join the Spanish tour as official partner for 2017.
“Partnering La Vuelta is a huge source of pride for us,” said Santini Cycling Wear CEO Monica Santini. “The Spanish tour is becoming an increasingly high-profile part of World Tour calendar. We intend to be part of that growth through this collaboration and will pour all our know-how into the products in the range dedicated to the event.”
“These jerseys consolidate the La Vuelta brand as a unique entity in the worldwide sporting landscape. We want people to feel pride when wearing our jerseys and for them to display La Vuelta wherever they go,” added Javier Guillén, the general director of Unipublic.
In addition to the four official jerseys for the tour classifications, Santini is also unveiling six full kits, comprising of jerseys, bibs, shorts, socks, caps and gloves.
