Santini Maillot Jaune Col De La Madeleine Unisex Jersey-Print
Tackling the Col de la Madeleine means confronting one of the toughest and most legendary climbs in the history of the Tour de France. With its nearly 2,000 meters of altitude and relentless gradients that offer no respite, this ascent is so brutal it defies any classification—it is simply a giant of the race.
First introduced in 1969, it was Spanish rider Andrés Gandarias who conquered its summit, battling through a snowstorm during that year’s tenth stage. Our Col de la Madeleine jersey, part of the Maillot Jaune collection, pays tribute to this historic moment with a blue design crossed by a horizontal yellow stripe on the chest, inspired by Gandarias' team colors.
Made from high-performance Polartec® Power Stretch™ fabric, the jersey offers a slim fit that perfectly contours the body, ensuring optimal breathability and freedom of movement. The raw-cut, extended sleeves enhance aerodynamics, while the fabric guarantees immediate shape recovery. The triple rear pocket and an additional zippered pocket provide ample space for your essentials. Comfort is ensured by the internal elastic at the waist, the low-cut collar with soft internal trim, and the covered full-length zipper. Reflective details on the back improve road visibility, while UPF30+ certification protects against UV rays during long alpine stages.
This jersey is a tribute to the epic history of the Tour de France and the determination of cyclists who dare to challenge the most imposing mountains. Wearing it means carrying the spirit of the Alps and the essence of great cycling feats.
