New British-based clothing company Colomba has launched a range of Sportwool jerseys which take their inspiration from what it describes as the ‘golden era of cycling, when cycling jerseys were wool and designs were simple but stylish.’
Based in the Yorkshire Dales, a seemingly ideal place to test cycling jerseys to their limits, Colomba have chosen Sportwool for its high performance mix of Merino wool and polyester, with designs that provide comfort and performance benefits, while not looking out of place sitting outside a café drinking an espresso.
Colomba currently offers four stylish designs, but work is afoot to expand the range with a lighter weight jersey, ‘sportive’ shorts and jackets. In development too is a bamboo base layer and mohair socks.
