Clydewear-suggestions?
I'm looking for a loose fitting jersey(clubfit?) size 5XLT (need T for tall). Anyone make such jerseys? I looked at love2pedals 5xl jersey but they all have annoying "sayings" on them https://www.love2pedal.com/Men%27s%20...Jerseys%205XL/ . I did pick up a a couple of their Falconi baggy shorts though. Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

I have to say I hate cycling cloths...because they look so much like cycling cloths. At my size I really don't want to look like a billboard. You can get exercise cloths from big and tall stores that should work. I did. I started with 5xlt. Now I'm down to 2xl (sometimes with the T and sometimes not).

How about just some good moisture wicking t-shirts from a sports store? Under Armour, Nike, Adidas etc. That is all I wear on my MTB because I am a little old for the Fox gangbanger look. I also wear them on my road bike recovery rides.

A good place for big jerseys in solid colors or simple designs is www.mtborah.com
They have a section called Borah Plus. The jerseys run a lot bigger than the ones I sell.
Their 4XL fits 58" to 60" chest which is way bigger than anything I sell.

+1 for Aerotechdesigns....the shorts we got from them were great....I'd feel confident buying the jerseys and other gear too. They cater to us....ummmm.....full figured brutes.
Good luck.
Good luck.

I received the Falconi baggy shorts today from love2pedal. Tried them on and they seem to fit well. Much more comfy than the Hoss pants I have but I like the pockets on the Hoss better. The ultimate test will be when I take a ride after dinner.
