Belgium? Easy…. Eddy.
France? Got to be The Badger.
Great Britain? Getting trickier…

The national champion’s jersey is one of cycling’s purest designs, all colour blocks and bold stripes. A symbol of supremacy that’s looked good for over a hundred years – and still does now.

With our new Legends Socks, we’ve taken that timeless look and matched it to the name that defines each nation. The rider you think of first. The icon. The benchmark.

Stylish, super-comfy, and built to last – these socks are our tribute to the best to ever do it.

Great Britain - Tommy

Tom Simpson. The first Brit to wear yellow. The first to win a Monument. A rider of immense style and impossible drive – and still the standard-bearer for British cycling ambition.

France - Bernard

The Badger. Bernard Hinault. Five Tours, two fists, no mercy. France’s last Tour winner – and surely in the top 5 riders of all time, anywhere.

Belgium - Eddy

Eddy Merckx. The Cannibal. The most dominant cyclist in history. Five Tours. Seven Milan-San Remos. Three Worlds. The name that still makes every Belgian proud.

Spain - Big Mig

Miguel Indurain. Five straight Tours. Quiet power, pure class. Spain’s gentle giant, who turned time trials into coronations.

Ireland - Kelly

Sean Kelly. The King. The boss of the bunch. Rugged, relentless, and one of the hardest men the sport has ever known. If the road was long, and the weather foul, Kelly was in his element.

Italy - Fausto

Fausto Coppi. Grace on two wheels. Il Campionissimo. Twice a Giro–Tour double winner, the classiest rider of all time.
