Rapha Campionissimo vintage-style cycling shirt

Posted on | Leave a comment

Campan

To celebrate 60 years since Fausto Coppi won both the Giro d’Italia and Tour de France, Rapha has produced a shirt that replicates the one worn by the legendary cyclist – the Rapha Campionissimo cycling shirt.

Ideally for cyclists, it's also a super-cool casual top, made from extra fine worsted merino yarn that's anti-bacterial, itch-free and odour-resistant – perfect for a summer's day. And with an angled collar and wooden buttons, it's also packing an authentic late 40s look.

And of course, if you're a cyclist you'll probably find use for those double pockets on the front as well as those hot weather features. And if you want to show off your cycling knowledge, a unique Il Campionissimo label is sown into the back. Not cheap as you might expect, with the top retailing for £160.

Given the price and rarity, this is not probably not a scooter to give your kids to play with in the park nor to weave your way through city traffic on, but rather one for the collectors.

An original atomic vintage kick-a-long scooter, it dates back to 1950. It is a rare and collectible item and Elemental currently have one available to buy from their website, priced £450.

Visit the Elemental website for further details.
