Portland, OR-based Retro is excited to announce their partnership with The New Yorker as they release two new cycling jerseys featuring iconic illustrated cover art from The New Yorker’s archive. The new cycling jerseys spotlight illustrations from two acclaimed artists: Theodore G. Haupt and Ana Juan. This year, The New Yorker celebrates 85 years of publishing. Retro is thrilled to offer these singular jerseys to the international cycling community. Jerseys will be available at retail outlets nationwide and online starting June 1, 2010.

The American artist Theodore G. Haupt contributed 44 New Yorker covers between 1927 and 1933, including his art deco cover for the March 9, 1929 issue. On this 1929 cover, Haupt’s style brings to life a rich, action-packed bicycle race, an inspiring image on race day or any day. Haupt’s work is beautifully brought back to life with Retro’s new men’s cycling jersey. The Spanish artist Ana Juan has designed cover art for The New Yorker since 1995. Juan’s “Blossoms,” depicting a femininity that is both delicate and strong, appeared on the cover of the March 10, 2008 issue and is featured on Retro’s women’s jersey.
