This shirt is a legendary and historically retro cycling jersey from the Belgian professional cycling team Mann-Grundig, dating from the period 1966-1970.
The shirt features a typical high, ribbed collar with a short metal zipper (half-zip) up to the chest, which was characteristic of road jerseys from the 1960s.
The Belgian pro team Dr. Mann was founded in 1960.
Between 1966 and 1970 the team joined forces with the well-known electronics manufacturer Grundig, causing the team to ride under the iconic name Mann-Grundig.
The absolute team leader was Herman Van Springel, who in this shirt in 1968 won, among others, the prestigious Giro di Lombardia and that same year narrowly finished second in the Tour de France. 
Other well-known riders such as Jos Huysmans, Daniel Van Ryckeghem and Jan Boonen (the father of Tom Boonen) also wore this jersey.
