Morgan Blue vintage-style cycling jerseys

Dhb

It's almost the new year, which means it's time for a resolution. If yours involves getting on a bike, maybe you should get yourself something from the Morgan Blue vintage-style cycling jersey range. Although to be honest, it'll look just as cool without the cycle.

Hand-made in Belgium, the jerseys come in six different designs, including some iconic team colours – Molteni was the team led by Eddy Merckxx during his most dominant years, Faema was the powerful pro team from 1955 – 1970, while Solo-Superia was legendary Belgian rider Rik van Looy's team during the 1960s.

All jerseys are a 'casual' fit with a quarter length zip, retro steel zip and with Wool-Acryl construction. £89.99 is the price if you want one.

Moxi Lolly Roller Skates

Mlskates 
Roller skates, as opposed to the modern rollerblades, will always have a retro look, but these Moxi Lolly Roller Skates have an especially 1970s look to them.

They are available in a choice of strawberry or teal, both having a tan plastic sole and clear and would be perfect for a night at your local roller disco (should such a thing still exist).

Sadly for us the UK, these roller skates are exclusive to Urban Outfitters and only available for delivery in the USA. If that doesn’t preclude you, then they cost $299.

Puma G Vilas 2 trainers reissued in two new colourways

Vilas2

We saw a pair in all-white earlier this year, but now there's a reissue of the Puma G Vilas 2 trainers with some added colour.

We do like the G Vilas 2, a section shoe designed for Argentinian tennis ace Guillermo Vilas in the early 80s, it was instantly a terrace classic and still catches the eye today.

The latest reissue is in white with either green (above) or navy blue detailing, throwing in some G Vilas 2 and Puma branding, a perforated toe and tongue, as well as a leather upper with nubuck toe and rubber outsole. £55 is the price.
