Pedersen Line
Santini and Mads Pedersen to Launch the Pedersen Line.
Santini is set to release a new clothing line developed with former world champion Mads Pedersen. This is expanding on a relationship that began when the then Trek–Segafredo switched to the Santini back in 2018. The range will sit alongside Santini’s MADSS (Mega Aerodynamic Speed Shell) project, the company’s aero-focused line introduced last year.
While the MADSS collection represents Santini’s latest aerodynamic R&D, the Pedersen line is his interpretation of the same performance goals. For this collection, Pedersen was able to move beyond team colours and work with Santini’s designers on fit and features.
Pedersen says the collaboration goes beyond a simple endorsement, emphasising his involvement in shaping the kit’s look and feel. Santini, meanwhile, highlights his “authenticity” and alignment with the brand’s performance ethos.
“Collaborating with Santini on a collection that carries my name is an incredible opportunity. I wear their garments every day in training and racing, and I know how much dedication goes into every detail. But I didn’t just want my logo on a jersey, I wanted the collection to reflect my philosophy as a rider and my personal style. It’s inspiring to work with a team that truly understands what a cyclist needs to feel at their best on the bike.”
The Pedersen Line will be unveiled at the end of April and will be available through Santini’s website and selected retailers. Hopefully we’ll get more details before then as to what the kit will actually look like. Until then, we just have these two teaser images.
Pedersen continues to be one of the most versatile riders in the peloton with stage wins across all three Grand Tours. Then there’s his multiple Classics victories, overall wins at Étoile de Bessèges, Tour de la Provence and the Deutschland Tour.
