In the Sixties, the King of Carnaby Street, John Stephen was interviewed and asked what the 'Well Dressed Mods' would be wearing that weekend. He replied they would probably be in a pair of hipster slacks, in either white or blue, and a cycling shirt with zip up to 'here' and stripes down 'there'. John Stephen was talking about a weekend in the heyday of the Sixties, but we think he could have easily been talking about this weekend! So pull on your blue or white Hipster Flared Jeans and get your Madcap England Cycling top on to join the well dressed Mods this weekend!

Cycling tops have become a style Madcap England is well know for, from the plain Gear Cycling Tops, to retro styled Hi Wheel editions. Roue fits in at the top of that range for Summer 2013.  Don't forget to check out his brother Roue style in Brown/Ecru and featuring a zig-zag pattern to the front.
