Essentials TOUR Stripes is built on our new TOUR product, providing a firm but more forgiving fit from top to, well, just above your scuffed knees. Inspired by the simultaneously hazy and vibrant colours of the California sun hitting bustling boardwalks. The blunt midday sun and the cotton candy blues and pinks that bookend each day at sunrise and sunset. Designed to transport you to the vibes of the 70s at its very best. Roller skates, illusive summer sun, and waves of nostalgia all encapsulate the feeling of this collection.

Anywhere can be LA. Or you can go anywhere in TOUR Stripes. Remaining true to our TEAM Jersey, the TOUR Jersey provides a fit that is firm but slightly more forgiving. It’s also a nostalgic nod to early Black Sheep Limited collections. But with everything we know now. Slightly longer in the body and designed with a mouldable raglan sleeve for on-bike comfort. As flattering as a back-lit Venice Beach selfie. And also aerodynamic while providing all day comfort for long summer days.

Our Tour Bibs, too, benefit from a deep 8cm cuff. Designed to flatter like a Hollywood waiter with a script to sell. In fact, the collection represents everything bold and beautiful about Los Angeles. It can be memories that come like waves from a previous life or even, a time and place that has only been visited in your imagination. It’s a cacophony of roller skates, music blaring from speakers and buskers, and street vendors. As decades pass and the details of the memory fade, the colours and outlines of the memories left a permanent striped imprint. The sun-drenched stripes capture the essence of summer. An essential for our Essentials Collection.
