2025 UCI Road World Championships Kigali

The official collection for the 2025 UCI Road World Championships in Kigali marks a historic milestone — the first time cycling’s greatest race takes place on African soil. It’s a celebration of connection: between people, places, and the bicycle — a timeless symbol of freedom, unity, and movement. For Rwandan artist Dolph Banza, who collaborated on the design, everything begins with the two primary roles bicycles play in his country: utility and competition. In Rwanda’s hilly landscape, the bicycle is more than a means of transport — it’s a vital connector in everyday life, bridging communities and possibilities. This sense of connection also lives in the design language of the collection. Banza drew inspiration from traditional Rwandan weaving. Woven patterns and motifs were everywhere — practical, decorative, and full of meaning. Though weaving today has become mostly ornamental, the identity it carries remains strong. In this collection, those woven motifs become visual threads that unify the elements of the design, telling a story of culture, pride, and belonging.

UCI ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS - JERSEY KIGALI

The official symbol of the most prestigious road cycling competition, the Kigali short-sleeve cycling jersey combines exclusive design and top-level performance to celebrate the UCI Road World Championships in Kigali.

Crafted from high-quality materials and advanced technology, this jersey is designed to deliver optimal comfort and performance on every ride. The lightweight front panel ensures a fresh feel and freedom of movement, while the breathable rear panel and collar help keep your skin dry even during intense efforts. The smooth microfiber side panels and sleeves provide an aerodynamic, snug fit without restriction. The raw-cut, seamless sleeves reduce friction, enhancing aerodynamics for superior performance.

An internal elastic hem ensures a perfect fit during the ride, while the fully covered front zipper allows for an even closure, preventing skin irritation. Completing the design is a triple rear pocket, ideal for storing essentials, and reflective details on the back, enhancing visibility on the road.

Jersey Fit Guide
When we develop our collections, we do it working on three specific types of fit that define every jersey and top within the range; SLEEK PRO, SLIM and CLASSIC Have a look at our jersey fit guide below to understand how the different fits work! Remember to check on the product page the FIT icon and to choose your size according to how you want it to fit on your body!

Sleek PRO Fit
Featuring a skintight fit, this design is shorter in the front and extends longer at the back. It has been meticulously developed with a focus on the riding position, ensuring optimal aerodynamic performance. This is the very same fit our professional athletes rely on for their high-speed races. If you prefer a slightly more relaxed fit, we recommend selecting one size up for a comfortable and versatile wear.

Slim Fit
Form fitting jersey. Remains close to the body minimizing wind resistance in the saddle. This is the fit that defines Santini. Incredibly versatile as it gives you a sleek profile while maintaining incredible comfort throughout your ride.

Classic Fit
Regular fitting jersey. Soft on the body for those who look for a more classic fit. If you like a jersey with classic fit but you prefer a tighter fit, we suggest choosing one size smaller.
