What is the font on this Merckx jersey?

Try this? Let me know - should be an orange jersey that says MOLTENI on a black background

Yup

You can see how the O is flattened at the top and bottom - haven't been able to find that yet

Judging by the description at https://www.prendas.co.uk/products/santini-molteni-arcore-retro-summer-cycling-jersey it seems even Prendas had to adjust common fonts to make it work.

Keep those TMNs coming.

Mine is different to yours

Find a close enough font; type your word; turn it into an image; adjust in photoshop or similar as required.

How custom are you wanting it? I ask because that jersey is available off the peg.

No the words on the jersey will be totally different - just would like to have the vintage style

Good idea - thanks

Close enough for freeform jazz

If free jazz is your scale, then this would be counted as close enough.

Interesting note about the font used - they called it the 'Molteni' font. That's a beautiful jersey - I will have to put that on my Xmas wish list.

Right. Can we start guessing what they will be now?

LOL - I can see where this is going to go...
