KALAS Alpecin-Deceuninck Merci Poupou Short Sleeve Jersey
Celebrate a true cycling legend and ride with the performance of the pros in the official KALAS Alpecin-Deceuninck Merci Poupou Short Sleeve Jersey. This exceptional piece of team equipment is more than just apparel; it´s a moving tribute to the eternal legacy of Raymond Poulidor, “Poupou,” the grandfather of team star Mathieu van der Poel. Worn by the team during the Tour de France, this jersey combines heartfelt history with the cutting-edge technology that today´s professional peloton demands.
Experience Unmatched Pro-Level Performance
Engineered for the dedicated cyclist, this jersey allows you to experience the same advantages as the Alpecin-Deceuninck riders. The primary benefit is its outstanding aerodynamic efficiency, achieved through a form-fitting race cut that minimizes drag and helps you slice through the wind. On grueling climbs and intense efforts, the jersey’s superior breathability and moisture management system works tirelessly to pull sweat away from your skin, keeping you cool, dry, and comfortable when the pressure is on. This thermal regulation is key to maintaining peak performance over long distances, ensuring you feel as strong on the last kilometer as you did on the first. The lightweight construction means you´ll barely notice it´s there, allowing you to focus completely on your ride and the road ahead.
Advanced Features for the Discerning Rider
Every detail of the Merci Poupou jersey is meticulously crafted for function and comfort. The main body panels are constructed from a highly breathable and fast-drying fabric, optimized for warm-weather riding. The sleeves feature a highly elastic and aerodynamic material, finished with a seamless bonded edge that sits flat against the skin for a sleek profile and unparalleled comfort without a restrictive gripper.
A full-length hidden zipper provides seamless aesthetics and allows for maximum ventilation control during hot days or intense efforts. At the back, a classic three-compartment pocket offers ample and secure storage for your ride essentials, such as nutrition, a phone, or a lightweight gilet. To ensure the jersey stays perfectly in place and never rides up, the bottom hem is fitted with a wide elastic silicone gripper, providing a stable and secure fit whether you´re in the drops or climbing out of the saddle. The low-profile, round collar is designed to reduce irritation and enhance comfort for all-day wear.
The iconic retro-inspired design, reminiscent of Poulidor´s Mercier team kit, is rendered in stunning, vibrant colors that will not fade, ensuring you own a piece of cycling history that is as durable as it is beautiful.
