Friends, I am happy to announce and share with you the SR-19 jersey, the official jersey for the Philippine contingent joining Paris Brest Paris this year. We again got the help of our fellow randonneurs in Off-Kilter to provide this jersey for us. This jersey is open for purchase for ALL 2019 Super Randonneurs in the Philippines. Even if you're not doing Paris Brest Paris this year, the 2019 Super Randonneurs are all qualified for Paris Brest Paris. :)
For the SR-19 Jersey we wanted to design something that local PBP hopefuls can wear in France this coming August. Instead of the endurance cut we used in the Transition kit, we decided to go for a more classic euro cut to reflect the heritage of the ride but incorporated modern touches here and there. We also didn't stray away from the fabrics we used and have been testing the past two years in both hot and cold weather -- some lycra up front to provide some barrier protection from the wind, and a fully vented side and back panel for maximum breathability during hot and humid weather.
Though we've opted to go clean and minimal again, we've peppered the design with the upcoming SR patch design on one end, and a reimagined PBP-19 logo on the other. Since this is a SR jersey during a PBP year, we've substituted the classic 200, 300, 400, and 600 distances for the actual checkpoint distances in the zipper bay. Our inner tag also reflects this information, but this time an out and back view that shows the checkpoint towns as well -- something that may come in handy for those planning their bag drop strategies and whatnot.
All in all, the SR-19 jersey is simply an extension of the Transition Kit but with the granddaddy of all brevets now taking the spotlight -- challenging you to come and conquer it.
