Basically I would like a jersey that doesn’t look a lot like a jersey that I can ride in now that warmer weather is coming. Bit sick of wearing cotton t-shirts.
I’m not really looking for a whole cycling kit (plus I don’t think I’d get that much use out of it just now as much as i like the Cadence kit), so I’m looking along the lines of Rapha etc that can be worn with cough cut off jeans or shorts and not look totally stupid. Maybe a just little bit stupid.
So yeah, breathable, jersey fit, pockets on the back, reasonably plain, not splashed with logos (unless they’re cool vintage ones).
Don’t worry I’ve been preeeeetty close hitting buy it now on the Cadence or MASH kits, but as I said, I don’t think I’d get heaps of use out of them just now (plus I have no money).
For cycling gear that doesn’t look like lycra, get some Ground Effect kit. Something like the Median Strip or Road Rage.
Only problem is that the colours are more often than not quite naff. I have a SS tee and a LS, long zip hooded top, both are now 3 years old and still trucking just fine.
I got a light-weight merino jersey from Lab Gear a couple of years back.
It’s ok - the elastic is a bit too tight for my liking. But the fact it’s merino means it doesn’t stink the place up in summer, plus you can customise the colours to get exactly what you want.
Alexb618, i feel sorry for you. Sorry because you have not experienced the joy of riding a track bicyle with no brakes very fast through your closest central business district while wearing jeans that you cut just above the knees last summer.
