I don’t use any cycling specific gear I can stand to do without.
I don’t have much in the way of jerseys but I usually wear cycling shorts because they help. I’m going to check out those tourist shorts.
It’s hot these days so I just wear white tees with the sleeves cut out and lots of sunscreen.
In progressively cooler weather, I will wear normal tees, long sleeve tees, Duofold base layers, maybe layer those and below about 50F I’ll add my windbreaker.
I’ve been using platform pedals so I wear Nike knit shoes or Keen sandals.
I always wear cycling gloves, firstly to protect my hands and second for comfort. In the cold I have warmer Trek gloves that get me down to about 30F before I take it inside.
These days of course I wear a helmet. Back in the 70s I would just have a cap to keep the sun out of my eyes. I wear glasses now and almost always wear clip on sunglasses.
