Looking for a bike jersey
OK, I was wondering if anyone knows of a company that makes decent bike jerseys. I have been looking for a while but all the new jersey are way to flashy. To state it simply, I would be embrassed to wear in public. The old school jerseys are pretty sweet, but would like to be informed of something new.
Now, I would ask this on the roadie forum, but they would tell me to get a bib or something I would never be able to live down. Have you seen those primal wear jersey, damn they're ugly.
Thanks illin

I go for the atheletic sweat wicking shirts. The flashiest one I have is an orange nike running shirt. The others are gray, blue, and white.

Anyway, I also rock the sweat-wicky running shirts. Nike ones are nice, and I got a grey one, black one and white one on sale at Dick's for $10 each or something.
I do want a wool jersey for winter, though, but I don't poop hundred dollar bills.
I think Endura makes one called the Halcyon or something for around $85.

I picked up some $30ish dollar blank ones from velowear dot com (voler). I'm not into looking like a Nascar, but still needed some jersey pockets.

This plain colored Swobo jersey is high on my list. They told me it has elastic at the arms and waist.

Yeah, I wear a nike one. It's a decent long sleeve jersey and awesome at keeping me cool in coolish weather, but not freezing. I don't have a jacket though. I should get one.

Here's my fav, it's local though. https://www.sellwoodcycle.com/merchandise.htm I like the new style.
Also wouldn't a more pertinent message for the back of that messenger hoodie be "know my rights." With the implied 'you should.'
