The Hincapie family’s dedication to premium apparel reaches back to its roots in Colombia, South America. Ricardo Hincapie developed a passion for cycling when he started racing bicycles in his native Colombia. He introduced his sons, George and Rich, to the sport he loved as soon as they were old enough to turn the pedals. All three Hincapie men have been sharing your passion ever since. Hincapie Sportswear was created to meet the need for quality custom cycling clothing for teams and clubs, and it remains a core part of what we do every day. Our company owned factory in Medellin, Colombia is run by George and Rich’s aunt and uncle, Marie and Jorge Hincapie. Together they have over 30 years of apparel manufacturing experience. We produce custom garments for large and small teams and clubs, races and rides, corporations and charitable organizations.Oh, and the "George" they keep talking about? He's none other than George Hincapie, one of the most decorated professional cyclists in the world. U.S. national team, Olympics,Paris-Roubaix, Ghent-Wevelgem—this guy gets around. He's ridden the Tour de France. Fifteen times! And of course, he's worn the yellow jersey (look it up, kids).
