Team Formagio jerseys
OK, time to fess up, how many of you have bought and / or actually wear the retro-spoof Formaggio jerseys?
I have two that I have been using for a while, the 1977 Raleigh one and an undated dark blue & white one. I just bought the 1972 blue one and an undated Milremo one. I'm thinking of getting the 1964 Molteni one and the 1965 white WC one.
I feel that they are well made nice replicas of the color schemes of the 60s & 70s and it lets me keep my actual real originals from the time period safe in the closet.
Here are the ones I have / just bought:

My wife bought me one when I first started riding. It was the same as the one on the top left.
I used it for a couple of years, but then I lost weight it was way too big.

Wearing fake team kit is cheesy.

I've got one in the Italian flag colors, marked Parmegiano, but I seldom wear it. A little Parmesan goes long way.

That's the team Italy one. If I had an italian frame, I'd get that one. I still might. Actually If I had the money to waste, I'd get them all, because they are so cheesy.
I showed them to my sister when she was visiting from SF and she noticed all the italian cheeses and pastas but didn't get the joke until I told her. She has an old Motebecane mixte frame from the early 80s, but it needs all new rubber and cabling, and probably a new chain and freewheel.

Performance bike sells a bunch of these. The brand is World Jerseys.. they seem to offer a number of goofy designs.

Amazon sells some styles, world jerseys has their own site, ebay is goodfor used ones, especially the out of print ones. E-cycling sells them. That's where i got my 1972 blue one.
Lots of different beer ones, etc. World Jerseys even has a giant nuke-em design with a huge mushroom cloud if that's your fancy.
They had a Cadillac jersey a few years ago, I'm trying to find that one.

Yeah I read that post as well. Only a select few outside of the long time cycling peeps will ever get it. That's what makes them fun to wear.
I looked at the link. The red-green-white team italy one is only $35. It's not at the top of my buy next list but maybe...
