About the Collaboration
LeBraquet.cc is extremely proud to be teaming up with Pony, a local artist with an internationally renowned reputation, for a colourful and eclectic artistic collaboration symbolizing the artist’s fertile universe.
Let yourself be seduced by the artwork and show off Pony’s colours in your peloton with our PODIUM Jersey, or in training, running or any other sporting activity with our EXPLORE Tech Shirt.
