The nipple problem
Alright, so this is a bit of a strange question, but I find that the cycling/activewear shirts/jerseys that I buy tend to show my nipples pretty clearly, even if it's not that cold out. Sometimes I layer up my long-sleeve jersey with a sleeveless base layer underneath, but then it sometimes gets too warm (although I'm sure in the coming months I won't be saying this).
Any tips/tricks on how to avoid the nipple problem? |
Consider them an asset rather than an embarrassment.
|
A bra?
|
Tape.
|
A tape bra, mine works perfectly.
|
|
Problem? Nipples are good.
|
Pasties. Tassles are optional.
|
who cares? if anyone stares just start rubbing them.
|
Assuming your a guy, really just don't ever think about it again. If you're a girl, well, still no big deal really, but if it really bothers you, tape or a bra. We all have nipples though, and it's not a secret.
|
Imagine my surprise this was not about wheel building.
BTW, why do men have nipples? |
Obviously aerodynamically this poses a big problem, the irregular flow around the nipples increases the drag dramatically and I too recommend tape to smooth things out. Otherwise don't buy these jerseys, you don't HAVE TO ride in the most skin tight gear.

Smear 'em with a little vasoline. If that doesn't work then tape 'em.
BTW if you are a female between the ages of 18-35, I could offer even more help if you would send a few pics of the offending region. |

Seems that putting tape on top of vaseline would just cause the tape to fall off.

Cold nipples a problem ?
Find a company that makes a jersey with little airplane propellers... |

I'm a guy, and i know it's not really a big deal... I guess I'm being a bit self-conscious. Gah now I'm embarrassed for even posting this.

I think I saw this or something similar on a Seinfeld episode.

I like it when my nipples stick out! (sorry, I didn't have anything important to add to this thread, but I didn't want to miss out!)
|
totally thought this was going to be about spoke nipples.
|
I cover mine with tire patches.
Not really. Just wear your nipple-enhancing jerseys with pride. |

The one where Elaine is wearing a white shirt at her Xmas party, and they take a picture and then everyone is talking about how they could see her nipple? |
