Santini UCI Road World Championships Kigali Cycling Socks-White
The official collection for the 2025 UCI Road World Championships in Kigali marks a historic milestone — the first time cycling’s greatest race takes place on African soil. It’s a celebration of connection: between people, places, and the bicycle — a timeless symbol of freedom, unity, and movement. For Rwandan artist Dolph Banza, who collaborated on the design, everything begins with the two primary roles bicycles play in his country: utility and competition. In Rwanda’s hilly landscape, the bicycle is more than a means of transport — it’s a vital connector in everyday life, bridging communities and possibilities. This sense of connection also lives in the design language of the collection. Banza drew inspiration from traditional Rwandan weaving. Woven patterns and motifs were everywhere — practical, decorative, and full of meaning. Though weaving today has become mostly ornamental, the identity it carries remains strong. In this collection, those woven motifs become visual threads that unify the elements of the design, telling a story of culture, pride, and belonging.
