Look for merino wool for the cool days. My synthetic jerseys stink as soon as I put them on (I commute daily). With merino, the smell fine after a month. I think I’m going to take some of the light weight ones and convert them to short sleeves. $5 fine wool jersey vs $70 cycling specific jersey with back pockets.
I’ve found some nice merino that is cotton soft. I wear a medium, but often by extra large because people wash a new wool sweater on warm, it shrinks, and they throw it out (they can be stretched back to size if nesc.)
I’m sure they would be hipster approved if that matters.
Good post!
I would rather have wool too, where the heck are you finding them for $5????
