Funny thread.

My loose fitting fleece pullover says "Old Navy" on it. My form fitting tights have no visible logo at all.

Like clothing for many other sports and activities cycling specific clothing is a combination of form and function. Sometimes one is emphasized more than the other.

It's quite possible to wear lycra and not be splattered with colorful logos. I'm not interested in "looking the part". I do like to be comfortable and I do like to go fast (when safe to do so). I also don't want to worry about stuff getting caught in my chain and getting messed up, or worse, - causing me to crash.

Further, when possible I want avoid both looking like a slob and avoid calling a great deal of attention to myself. This is pretty far down the list and I'm not always successful.
