Santini Cycling has unveiled its new Santini x Eroica collection for 2025, celebrating ten years as the official partner of L’Eroica, the retro cycling event founded in 1997.
The Italian company, which has a long history in high-performance cycling apparel production dating back to 1965, has created a collection that blends the vintage aesthetic of the event with modern fabric innovation.
This year’s edition of L’Eroica will be held on October 4–5, 2025. The event takes place along the white gravel roads of Tuscany, Italy, and is described as a journey back in time, requiring participants to use vintage bikes and clothing. Santini Cycling has been the official partner since 2015.
The new Santini collection is split into three lines: a wool line, a technical garments line, and a casual line.
The wool line features garments made entirely of wool for retro cycling enthusiasts. New jerseys in the collection include the Colnago and 28° Gaiole, which join the Vino jersey from the 2024 collection. These items include vintage details such as mother-of-pearl buttons on the back pockets and metal zippers.
According to Santini Cycling, these wool jerseys are ‘Eroica Approved’ and can be worn during L’Eroica events to ensure an authentic historical experience. The line also includes ‘modern wool’ garments, which are a mix of merino wool and polyester to blend vintage charm with contemporary performance.
The technical garments line includes lightweight, high-performance microfibre jerseys, two of which are in a unisex fit. These are paired with two bib shorts featuring the Santini GITevo chamois that is designed to ensure comfort over long distances.
The casual line offers a way to ‘live L’Eroica every day’ and includes hoodies (with and without zippers), crewnecks in a variety of colours, and t-shirts in viscose or cotton blends.
The collection is available online and at all L’Eroica series events, as well as in selected stores.
