Julbo X Matchy: A colorful collaboration on the Tour stage!
On July 9th between Annemasse and Morzine (Haute-Savoie), the team's athletes Julbo wore a jersey Matchy Custom on the roads of The Tour de France stage. A 100% French collaboration for a day rich in emotion, which highlights our desire to bring personalized ideas and projects to life.
From the austerity of snow-capped peaks to the warmth of Alpine passes, there is only one step. Dedicated practitioners in their spare time, in order to clear your mind, chain together endurance sessions or enjoy recovery outings, Antonin Guigonnat, Leo Slemett, Enak Gavaggio And Vivian Bruchez are used to spending time on two wheels. A few months before winter, where everyone will go about his business again - biathlon, freeride skiing, steep slope skiing -, the fine team took up the challenge of thestage of the Tour between Annemasse and Morzine, displaying a jersey Matchy Custom specially designed for the occasion.
Comfort and lightness
"As fast as possible, as slow as necessary", Leo slipped to Vivian on the starting line. 157 kilometers And 4100m of positive elevation gain with the Col de Saxel, the sequence of the Col de Cou and the Col du Feu before reaching the Col de la Ramaz and to finish speak Joux-Plane pass: to say that The route that the Grande Boucle will take during the 14th stage is selective is an understatement.
In view of the demands of the stage and the summer heat, the intention seemed clear to us: to focus on the lightness of the materials to bring a maximum comfort and flexibility. This is why we have opted for an assembly of ultra-light mesh on a variation of several pastel colors.
Inspiration and technicality
The idea behind this project was to bring Julbo's ideas to life, a taught renowned based in Longchaumois in the Jura and with which we share many values. We had already collaborated with the brand's athletes last May, in particular Martin Fourcade And Emilien Jacquelin, duringa gravel trip on the trails of the Croatian islands.
