    You can buy them in kids clothes shops in France :lol:
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I had a Z winter training top until recently when it went in the charity clothing bag. Gutted to hear it may have been an Ebay collectors special. :oops:

    Not quite sure how I used to wear it, but at least people could see me :lol:
  • this was know as the farting z to anyone who wore one when i was a teenager i used to have a skil miko jersey still do but doesn't fit (sean kelly was my hero)

    Ugly...the Z jersey...never!

    I've still got mine (albeit with a broken zip) and wish I could still fit in it!

    Pity I never got Robert to autograph it : (

  • Lovin' it. I might be relying on Prendas to bring it back though.

    I say that had my fave the MG/Technogym on there but I missed out on my size :(

    I'd take a Fagor or Raleigh/Banana one if those good people at Prendas want to make it up to me by rekindling a old favourite 8) 8) 8)
  • Still got the summer and winter Z jerseys in my cycling wardrobe.
    I even used to have a flourescent fade bike a la Z team! Must have been one of those original fans. A bit like the couple I once saw kitted out in full USPS kit and Trek bikes!!!
    I still love this and wear it every now and again. Would love to know how much these might eventually fetch on ebay. One of the best and my first jersey I bought with my own money!

    Indeed!
  • My all time fav jersey was the Chateau Dax as worn by Gianni Bugno. I sold mine a few years ago 'cos I couldn't fit in it any more!. Hope Prendas get around to it soon!
    Here's a box,a musical box. Wound up and ready to play.

    Found one in a shop in Sudbury, MA, USA in 1999 - snapped it up. Still have it and it still fits - sadly it went in a wash with some crayons so is a little spoiled but nevertheless it comes out for rides on me.

    To poster above, prendas have emailed recently noting that they are expecting stock of repro shirts and caps soon. Am waiting on the announcement they are in. :D

    IMO, the Z jersey and the Polti 'fart' have seriously dated - there's nothng 'classic' about them at all. If you want 'classic' jerseys you have to go back to the 70s and 80s where the design wasn't ruined by the desire to include as many logos as possible.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    As said, Prendas will have them in soon.
    I am soooooo tempted, it was the first shirt I can really remember, as worn by Robert Miller.

    I have the Peugeot from Prendas and will definitely get the Z when they get it in.

    Where? I've been all round the Prendas site and I can't find them.

    Well - I followed your link. Screen clearly says "coming soon" and "not yet in stock". So, I'm afraid we have to wait. :(
