The design of the Stelvio Giro d'Italia 2024 jersey is inspired by the legendary climb of the Stelvio Pass, one of the most iconic in the Giro d'Italia, symbolizing the challenge and determination required to conquer the toughest peaks. The jersey is designed to perfectly fit cyclists of all shapes, ensuring exceptional comfort and a neutral fit, a crucial element for those facing long days in the saddle.
The Stelvio Pass and the Giro d'Italia share a history rich in iconic moments, including the epic battles featuring legendary cyclists like Fausto Coppi. A symbol of challenges and triumphs, the Stelvio Pass was the scene of the legendary duel between Coppi and Koblet in 1953, a story that embodies the essence of cycling sport: strategy, courage, and unpredictability. This climb, reaching 2757 meters, not only marked the peak of Coppi's career but has become over time a pillar of cycling competitions, witnessing memorable feats and becoming a reference point for athletes and enthusiasts.
Over the years, the Stelvio has continued to be the protagonist of unforgettable days in the Giro d'Italia, as demonstrated by the victories of athletes like Rohan Dennis in 2020 and Mikel Landa Meana in 2017, the latter in a stage marked by an inexplicable emergency that saw Tom Dumoulin defend himself honorably. Every ascent and descent on the Stelvio has contributed to forging the legend of this mountain, making it not only one of the most feared and respected challenges of the Giro, but also a symbol of how passion and determination can overcome every obstacle, combining the history of sport with contemporary challenges.
