  • I was lucky to inherit the Mk1 design, so cant take credit, but was able to work on updates over the years. Exactly as you say, so much refined attention to detail, when the other jerseys on the market were relatively basic polyester.

    And that’s a good point; there were some great products, that owners swore by, but just sank. Softshell Gilet, Fixed Jersey, original Winter Gloves. I dropped out of bidding on a Medium Hooded Tracktop when it got to well over £100 last year!

  • When you say sank, do you mean they weren't popular enough?

    Fixed Jersey

    Still see these out and about (100% merino long sleeved short zip?). Thought they were v popular in terms of sales. I've recently given one away, still kept one but it doesn't get that much use.

    Medium Hooded Tracktop

    One of my most worn items of clothing over the years! That plus the 3/4 shorts. Wore two of the merino track tops til they fell to bits too.

  • Sorry, lazy term ‘sank’. Maybe not the greatest in terms of impact or sales, but good solid products that ran their course and phased out. ....’Wardrobe domestiques’?
