The 1982 Ireland jersey is inspired by that worn by Stephen Roche back in the day, by the time De Marchi was a supplier and sponsor of Irish Cycling. Made from the best non-itchy Merino wool blend from New Zealand on traditional knitting machines in Italy, it features classic details such as three cargo pockets with real mother of pearl, hand-sewn buttons, chainstitch logos and a 1/4 nylon front zipper, plus doubled collar and cuffs.

Perfect paired to an heritage wool jersey, the Classico Merino Tight has an unrestricted fit and features Endurance retro Chamois by Elastic Interface for De Marchi, a state-of-the-art pad with built-in channel to reduce genital pressure plus high density, ventilated foam and bacteria-static, textured surface for improved hygiene and riding comfort.
