al giro

It’s always a great pleasure and a great honour to be source of inspiration for famous designers and prestigious brands.The Giro d’Italia is one of the three most important stage races on the world cycling calendar. This year, the 104th edition will start on 8 May and finish on 30 May in Milano. We are really honoured to have been a source of inspiration for the new kit of procycling team EF Education-Nippo.The original kaleidoscopic design was created by Max at typeklang for the Zürich Bike Festival in 2018 and was dedicated to the two new collections équipe and mondiale presented in anteprima at the show. It is still used for all the posters, flyers, stickers and visit cards at superleggero.

The new silk carré aspen’86 is my personal tribute to the Coors Classic, a race held in North America between 1975 and 1988.The race was considered the fourth biggest stage race on the world cycling calendar after the Tour de France, Giro d’Italia and Vuelta.From a 3-day of racing in Colorado in the first years, the race grew to 2 weeks with stages across Nevada, Colorado, California, many of them criterium races or time trials like the time-trial hill climb up to San Francisco’s famous Telegraph Hill.

«Nessuno di loro, o quasi, è iscritto ad una società sportiva, neppure come dilettante. Fanno ore e ore di allenamento ogni giorno, parlano di Coppi, Bobet e degli altri assi solo per imitarne l’andatura e la pedalata. » JACQUELINE VODOZ – I girini al parco, Milano 1955
