In the world of vintage sportswear, Descente represents high-performance textile engineering.

This rare 1980s archival jersey is a technical masterpiece defined by its premium Swiss-made manufacturing. Combining cutting-edge Japanese design with legendary Swiss craftsmanship, this piece delivers an exceptional standard of quality—the very same technical excellence that outfitted iconic teams like 7-Eleven when they challenged the European cycling establishment.

Archival Quality & Collector Appeal In excellent vintage condition, this jersey is crafted from a high-grade 100% technical synthetic fabric that retains its original luster and elasticity. The clean, minimalist aesthetic reflects Descente's signature heritage style, making it as striking for high-end streetwear outfit pairings as it is for historic cycle rides (L'Eroica). Swiss production acts as the ultimate mark of authenticity, offering superior durability and thermal comfort compared to mass-market releases of the era.

How to measure clothes

To measure a vintage garment correctly, lay it flat on a even surface and use a measuring tape (ideally a tailor's tape) to measure the shoulders, chest, length, and sleeves. This allows you to compare them with your own body measurements or with clothes you already own to find the perfect fit.

Washing instructions

Vintage garments require a little extra care: we recommend a gentle wash at low temperatures or washing by hand using mild detergents. Avoid the tumble dryer and bleaching products to preserve the original colors and fabrics.
