Sleeveless Jersies-yay or nay?
 

I know it's awfully cold for most of us, me included. I just noticed that they are on sale bigtime at performance and thought about getting a couple. Any of you guys ride in them in the summer?

I'm a tri guy, all I wear LOL Load up on em.

yes.

YAY!

I wear them from May-October. Now is a great time to stock-up .

I like to keep the sun from beating down on my shoulders, plus it just does not look good.

I think sleeveless is noticeably cooler on really hot days, but you do need lots of sunscreen to avoid burning.

i wear 'em....with sunscreen, which you should wear anyway:)

I value the skin on my shoulders.

nay, they look kinda fruity

:roflmao: coming from a guy that wears colorful lycra, that really means something!

Do you wear lycra shorts? I rest my case.

It's funny that some of the really "bad ass looking" pro riders in the European peloton wore sleeveless jerseys or tucked their sleeves in during Le TdF.

There must be a reason they are against the rules? Besides they are not very attractive on most skkiny armed road racers. Tri's are all swimmers so they are more well equipped for the sleavless look.

I used them a bit this summer on commute and was really surprised at how badly at times they must have been cutting into my pits. I kept finding these stone bruise looking lines under my arms from time to time before I finally figured out what they were coming from.

just not my bag, baby

skip

When it's hot, you bet I wear 'em.

I did have one jersey that yielded those bruises that Rule mentioned, but that was the only problem. I've got 2 or 3 Performance sleeveless jerseys that were only $19 in July, they must be giving them away free in specially marked boxes of Count Chocula now.

sleeveless jersies are great when it's hot. ive never had sunburn problems or any other problems mentioned with them. what kind of sleeveless jersies are you guys wearing???

I am too white. I burn WAY too easily.

I am not saying they look silly or anything.

+1 I wear them sometimes when it's really hot, plus evens out the farmer tan. I have 2 and that is enough.

Really??
