Within Cycling Sport, a lot of bottles, gel packs and other plastic is thrown in the environment. The Rucanor-Line Cycling Team wants to do something about that. In cooperation with Bioracer, the Team will fight against pollution. Together we have conceived the ECO shirt. This is an ecological cycling shirt. The shirt contains extra pockets on the side to put your trash in without liquid leaking out of the pocket. The shirt is made of pollution recycled textile, that reduces the use of raw material. The shirt keeps his breathing and fast drying properties.
