A standout grail for vintage sportswear collectors, this authentic Renault-Elf-Gitane cycling jersey is a true piece of racing history. Crafted in France by Le Coq Sportif during the late 70s and 80s, this isn't a modern reproduction—it’s an original archival kit straight from the golden era of professional cycling.

This iconic model was worn by legendary champions like Bernard Hinault and Laurent Fignon during their historic Tour de France victories. The bold diagonal yellow-and-black graphic remains one of the most recognizable and powerful designs in cycling heritage.

Archival Construction & Technical Details Woven from a high-grade wool and acrylic blend, the jersey delivers natural temperature regulation that outperforms modern synthetics. Built to original racing specs, it features a ribbed zip-up collar, elasticated arm cuffs for an aerodynamic fit, and beautifully preserved vintage logos from historic sponsors Renault, Elf, and Cycles Gitane alongside the classic Le Coq Sportif crest. Finding a fully intact original in this condition is exceedingly rare.

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.
