Mont Ventoux Shield Sweatshirt
So how high is it? 🤔
In 1823, the French engineer Joseph Delcros was the first to accurately measure the height of Ventoux, arriving at 1911 metres (it was assumed to be much higher).
Over the years we have seen official signs saying 1909m, 1910m and 1912m. Currently all signs at the top seem to say 1912 metres - as does the official Tour de France profile.
On the other hand, when we zoom the latest IGN (official French government) maps they say 1911 metres. But apparently a recent geological survey says it is 1899 metres. 😵
If you have climbed it, I’d go with the higher summit 👍🚵🚵♀️ .
The men’s crew neck raglan sweatshirt is cut in premium 350gsm Terry cotton, 85% organic cotton, 15% recycled polyester, looks great with jeans or shorts, to pull on as the evening gets colder, bold detailed print finishes this sweatshirt perfectly for any occasion.
Our sweatshirts are MEDIUM FIT.
Matt is 6ft with a 38/40" chest and of a slim muscular build and is wearing a Medium.
- Raglan sleeve
- Inside herringbone back neck tape
- Self fabric half moon at back neck
- Sleeve hem and bottom hem with twin needle topstitch
- 350gsm
- Supersoft and comfortable
