Approaching from the north from La Chambre via Col du Glandon, the location of the Croix De Fer is marked by a gruelling ascent and a 22.7km ride that averages 7.0%. When the rider summits the stage they are presented with a spectacular view of the famous iron cross. New for 2017 is a race-inspired Jersey with more than a little doff of the cap to the Tour De France. The Croix De Fer Jersey is a short sleeve silhouette finished with an iron cross reflective graphic in our luxurious MERINO+CARBON blend.

The Jersey is available late summer to coincide with the worlds most famous Grand Tours. The Croix De Fer itself is an icon of the Tour, having featured 16 times since 1947. Graphically represented at the front of the Jersey, a repeat series of Croix de Fer icons form the front chest stripe, while the co-ordinates are also marked subtly on the rear pocket as part of the signature ashmei rear stripe.

Fit for any pro rider, the high-performance fabric is second to none in terms of regulating body temperature. On a practical front, three rear stowage pockets plus a zipped security pocket provide ample storage needs. The Jersey boasts superfine Merino wool as it is peerless in performance terms. The addition of carbon to the blend allows the fabric to wick moisture 10x faster than regular Merino and helps it dry twice as fast.

ashmei founder Stuart says: I wanted to honour a legend of the Tour and the Croix de Fer remains on my personal bucket list of epic rides. Hopefully our customers will appreciate the little touches such as the Croix De Fer map co-ordinates, which are marked subtly on the rear pocket.

  1. Joshua Wong –

    My first wool jersey and not my last. I just love the way the jersey doesn’t stink after a ride. Also, I didn’t feel overheated in the Southern California sun. As for sizing, I ordered a large, I’m 5’8″ 160lbs, and it was slightly loose and a little long. Will try the medium. Overall very satisfied. Waiting for them to make a mountain bike specific jersey!

  2. Richard Martin –

    Excellent Jersey, feels wonderful, fits true to size, and looks great. I am six feet, two hundred pounds and the XL fits perfect. I ride in So Cal, and this fabric performs well in the high 90s F. I highly recommend it.

  3. Andy Carr –

    Love this shirt, have been wearing it this current warm spell and it functions fantastically and is so comfortable. Totall recommended!

  4. Rickard Berg –

    A beautiful jersey.
    I’ve been a Rapha fan for a while but wanted something different and Ashmei has superseded my expectations. The jersey and the gilet that I now own are simply fantastic.
    My size is always between large or medium depending on manufacturer, the Ashmei pieces I found too voluminous around the waist in large so have opted for the medium.

  5. Tom Styles –

    Quality of the product is great. Love the feel of the merino – soft and luxurious, but feels very advanced.

  6. Stefano –

    Fantastic Jersey, very comfortable in all situations

  7. Nanna –

    Excellent service regarding delivery last minute. The jersey is amazing even on a sunny July day. Feels like the wind doesn’t even notice it:)

    Another beautiful piece to add to my ashmei collection. Lovely detailing and fit and although I’ve yet to have the chance to wear in the sun, I know it will perform. It’s my 1st ashmei cycling piece, it won’t be the last!

  10. Ben –

    The jersey is so comfortable and the fit is perfect. The jersey came beautifully packaged by Hester in very quick time. I’m very impressed with the quality and service of Ashmei. Thanks for a great jersey, now to look for my next purchase 🙂

  11. NGB –

    Really stylish jersey and quite unique looking, small details such as the GPS coordinates for the Croix De Fer in small print on the back are nice touches. The material is smooth to the touch, quite thin and being merino regulates the temperature very well. Great product.

  12. Jean-Pierre –

    Beautiful detailing amazing quality and incredible feel to the fabric. Makes other jerseys feel cheap by comparison. First time I’ve bought from Ashmei and I’m super Impressed by the quality.

  13. andy apin –

    As the product description mentions, the fabric with this top feels great to wear. The fit is perfect for me and looking forward to a long summer in Australia and staying comfortable and cool (as much as you can in mid-30c temps) in this top
