Carretto Jersey Upcycle

Our UpCycle Program is a way to give our apparel a second chance and helps to reduce waste by keeping our kit out of landfills. By up-cycling, we’re giving our kit a second life, reducing the demand for new resources, and reducing our environmental impact.

• Products that have slightly damaged in transit from our factory or gently tried on items are identified by our team.

• We thoroughly clean and refresh each piece, restoring to factory conditions.

• Every item is expertly ironed, prepped and finished, ready to begin its new life in style.  

• Upcycle products are final sale. Sorry no returns or exchanges.

• Some products may have minor imperfections.

Carretto Siciliano, a folk art tradition in southern Italy for about 300 years, is named after the horse-drawn push carts that are painted with colorful geometric imagery. There were similar artistic traditions throughout western Europe, and as the style migrated internationally it became even richer by blending with local artistic traditions, notably in the Americas. That's why Mexican Talavera Pottery and Huichol yarn painting resemble Carretto. We can still see the DNA in the graphics of modern-day race cars and lowriders, with their exuberant cacophony of logos, pinstripes, and flames.

Cycling jerseys may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you see a pushcart, but we couldn't help ourselves.
