Vintage wool cycling jerseys

[pipvh]

Any interest in three old cycling jerseys in great worn condition? Two Belgians (Ijsbroeke and "Lucky Sprinters") and an Italian national team jersey from late 70s early 80s.

Belgians £25 inc. postage in the UK, Italian £45 inc postage as before. Photos to come.

I might be interested. Looking forward to seeing the photos.

Photos coming up.

I should have mentioned size: the curse of vintage jerseys is that they always seem to be sized extremely small, whereas these are all in Weekend Warrior-friendly large sizes. I'm a broad-shouldered 42 and they fit me fine, particularly if I've actually been out on my bike a few times...

Also interested. Are they 100 % wool or acrylic blend?

 

[pipvh]

Italia. I think - not positive - that this is pure wool. It's really soft and incredibly comfortable.

Ijsboerke. This is 90% wool, 10% acrylic.

Lucky Sprinters: no label, but this feels like the Ijsboerke - I think this has a high wool content.

Excellent. Not quite my thing at those prices. If I bought them I probably couldn't wear them. -I ride Elektra American Beach Cruisers.

I've passed the link to my cycle buddy who rides proper bikes - those ones with razor-blade saddles that go right up your bottom!

Thanks, Papa M.

those ones with razor-blade saddles that go right up your bottom!

Remember that ad? Dad looks ruefully at son finding birthday prezzie racer:
"Ooh... I were right about that saddle, though."
