We know the cycling clothing brand Rapha in the professional peloton as the clothing sponsor of EF Education-EasyPost.
But Rapha also sponsors a team from the United States called L39ion de Los Angeles (pronounced: Legion). For this team, they have created a unique jersey, meaning one that you can wear in two ways. There is the green-blue side, but also a white interior that you can wear.
It’s a beautiful jersey designed for the race, although it was initially made for a team (even though their riders still use one-piece suits during races). The green-blue side also features the words “Veni, Vidi, Vici” on the back.
Disadvantage: if you wear the jersey inside out, with the white side facing outward, you won’t have access to the rear pockets. So it’s best for shorter rides.
Another drawback: you’re essentially paying for two jerseys because the price on the Rapha website is 227 euros. Nevertheless, the jersey is already sold out.
