Finally, here is the rollout of our kit to help celebrate the 2023 Scottish Rite event. The kit is made by Safetti, of very good quality and we think you'll agree the new design, while retaining the Scottish Rite look and feel, is very sharp indeed. Its something all of us will be proud to wear all across the year.
The jerseys come in two styles, the Lombardia 2.0 (race cut) and a true club fit. The club fit hasn't been available to our members in quite some time, and I know the portion of the club looking for that should be pleased.
Lombardia 2.o Short Sleeve Jersey, race cut (sizes 2XS-5XL). The Lombardia 2.0 (race cut) is a very unforgiving sizing very similar to the Cuore of just a few years ago. According to Safetti, "Extra slim race cut for the most demanding cyclists. You might want to go one or two sizes up your regular size". A combination of extra light fabrics with elastane, moisture control, fast drying, odor control and UPF 30-50. Ultra light mesh on side panels for better ventilation and breathability. Clean cut seamless sleeves for a perfect comfortable fit.
- Front nickel-free zipper with semi-automatic glider.
- Three back pockets + a 4th one, water repellent.
- Reflective piping on lower back below the pockets.
- Silicone band on inner waist hem. Protective tab on zipper to avoid tearing of the bib shorts due to constant contact.
- Pocket with opening for headphones.
- Italian inks free of azoic harmful to skin components (Azo Free).
Club Fit Short Sleeve (sizes 2XS-5XL). on the other hand is closer to what we were used to, a loose fit with a much more forgiving style than the majority of the club prefers. Both styles have additional reflective safety features. Club Fit Cycling Jersey, a garment created with ultra lightweight fabrics and a relax fit that offers comfort for the cyclist. It has clean cut sleeve ending, sun protection, fast dry, and reflective details for better visibility in the route.

Price
One thing we think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the price. Yes, everything has gone up, but our club fit jersey comes in at $84 and the top of the line race fit is $100, much lower than most in the market today. Read the return/exchange policy carefully.
