riding apparel



always had issues with it. tights aren't really my style - but i did/have worn then. as for jersey's - there's another story all together. why do they have to look like you need 4 x AA's inserted in them. seriously.
there is a lot of typography involved, i guess thats the reason i have issues. whats funny though is pretty much all the stuff i like is olde world cycling jerseys

visability NOT - when in a proper riding position it would be pretty rare that any driver/person would really see the jersey that well, so visibility is out of the equation to me
sponsor NOT - if your not sponsored why would you give them free advertising? bizarre really

so i have been on a little bit of a push to find some nice cycling gear that doesn't look like a kids toy packaging.
results:
NZ : SO1O - localish bro [don't tell tarini] would someone please redo the shoot though with a guy that doesn't look like he's auditioning for madame tussauds.
look out tiger - the cyclist is coming!!! [having said that at least he does look as though he rides a bike regularly]

USA : twin six
- pretty impressive stuff. not 100% about the type down the size of all the jerseys but never the less pretty nice.

twin six have also been involved in creating a wool trainer designed by house industries. it's happy days when two worlds colide
