So, I have a closet with some 2xl and 3xl jerseys, baggy 2xl cycling shorts, and a few other things that can be used for cycling that are just too large now, yet did not see enough use to make them worn and old. Some of this stuff has just a few rides in them. These are "american" sized" garments, not castelli triple x-es that would fit my pre-teen daughter. I am still deep in clyde territory, yet a fraction of my former self. What do you do with your clyde gear as you downsize?

Actually, I would consider giving it away, if the recipient paid the shipping. Most of it is for 50 plus inch chest, and 44 plus inch waist, from Performance, Primal, aerotech, etc. You clydes know the kind of places I had to hunt down stuff to ride in. While I am not buying Castelli yet, I was able to replace much of my riding gear at a Performance grand opening near my house with XL stuff.

eBay!

I have a couple of Fat Cyclists jerseys I'll be listing, for instance.
