retro Peugeot jersey
I'm looking for a retro-style (retro style, modern fabric) Peugeot jersey as worn by Tom Simpson in 1967. This the classic Michelin Peugeot b&w check jersey with 'BP' on the sleeve and the British flag on the shoulders.
I've spent some time on-line and can find several Michelin Peugeot jerseys available (shops and private ebay sales) with a design that comes close to the one worn by Simpson in all the well-known images (inc the fatal day on Ventoux), but most seem to have Shell or Esso on the sleeve, and none I can see have the flag on the shoulders.
If anyone can point me towards an exact replica, I'd be grateful.
Thanks
David

Unlikely. Not once he hears that it'll 'help Gore'.

I can't vouch for the quality but the eBay seller world-of-jersey does one for less than £25. BP only though, no flags.
My local cycle cafe do a great line in retro jerseys, including somthing like you describe: http://www.pedallingsquares.cc/store/p16/PEUGEOT_CYCLING_TOP_SHORT_SLEEV...
This is the closest you will get, I know of none with the flags on the shoulders as I believe these were sown on by himself and not part of the original design
