Let's Go Cycling Jersey Shopping!

[@jordanholicky8616]

I think you would like some of the collection from Ostroy cycling from New York City. They have some cool patterned jerseys, my favorite being called the Punk Flyers jersey with a a pattern of old band posters in black and white in the mid section (similar to news print).

[@TheCountrySteve]

I've bought a jersey from Ostroy before. Absolutely love the design (their LA Monuments pattern) but the quality is questionable. The material isn't the best and the zip feels a bit cheap for the money it cost. That said, when I had a fault with the jersey I initially bought from them, the customer service was as good as I've had from anywhere

[@nguyenho9591]

I think cycling fashion is like wearing overcoats over 3-piece suits these days, the more formal, simpler your kit combination is, the cleaner and sharper you will look, hence people are starting to favour earthy solids that matches with the environmental elements they would be riding in or just black and white. All the adventurous textures, dots and splashes make you look 'loud'.

[@nguyenho9591]

A graphic design analogy would be: Solids are like SF Pro Display, polkadots and splashes are like Comic Sans

[@donwinston]

No way. Bright colors and crazy graphics and all over commercial branding. 80s and 90s forever.

Hi Chris, the gradient to a darker lower midriff might help de-emphasise middle age spread. Light top section and black belly...with super tight lycra...for the old bloke win (I am qualified to make this assessment!). Love your channel and keep the great work up!.

[@MrJwmurph]

Agree, I've got one of those Assos gradient blue jerseys and the darker lower section is definitely more slimming, makes me look less like a tightly stuffed sausage!

[@Silidons91]

Check out The Heavy Pedal. Arizona based, they have some cool kits. I love em, priced decent too for a quality kit.

[@michaelbradbrook9575]

Thanks for the fashionista advice Chris!! Two things - 1. Rapha are the most advertised product in my feed. I get an ad from them almost every video I watch. 2. I'd be keen to see some local brands like NeoPro, Black Sheep, Pedal Mafia and others that are doing some cool stuff

[@evanatkins1888]

About 4 years ago I bought some winter kit - long sleeve jersey and 3/4 Knicks out of Northern Italy - La Passione. Best gear I've had - warm and best fitting and very Euro looking. Since then I have bought their stuff most years - summers jerseys and Knicks, socks are terrific as well. Bought another winter jersey + merino long sleeve base layer and cab't fault it. Strangest thing with these guys is - I had a zipper on my summer jersey blow out - I sent it back to Northern Italy - they replaced it and sent it all the way back to Sydney !! Anyway - happy to see these guys are sponsoring Movistar this coming season which is terrific.

[@JFomo]

Just got in the mail today, the Maap Evade Pro Base jersey in the new Slate colour. Can't wait to rock this tomorrow. Hopefully the weather is nice.

[@grahamfoster9041]

I listen to a podcast in the UK from a very reputable bike store, Criterium Cycles and he mentioned that the top quality lycra is really hard to print patterns onto, which is why the likes of Assos and Rapha etc tend to have main blocks of colour with minimal patterns and, if you do get a highly detailed jersey there has to be a compromise in quality. That said, I do like some of the Cycology designs. Stolen Goat are another brand that seems to get the mix of design and quality spot on 👍

[@procyclingclips]

My fav series on the channel

[@MeMurphy10Feb]

have you checked out La Passione - find them great and a good price/quality mix?

[@jpragmatic7759]

Im a big fan of maap stuff! Fit and quality is just great around.

[@olivercarpenter7563]

Fully agree on quality and fit,not sure I the new super narrow logo they run on a lot of the jerseys. The super understated training jerseys are nice too

[@quentinpollard5173]

Thanks for the upload. I love this segment. Keep it coming!

[@michaelquinlan4817]

Cycology Spin Doctor jersey so does it for me. I have one and you know, sleeves have become baggy, pockets are super saggy but the artwork is the bomb! Who'd a thunk it, Fashion Friday and I'm in!

[@johndegroote6495]

Chris, I need some fashion advice for my friend (Mick Quinlan), he has received his Bowral Classic 2021 jersey a couple of weeks prior to riding the actual event. Is it a fashion faux pas to wear it before you actually rode it?

[@nickobec]

Could of done a lot better with your choices of brands. Pedla would of sent you into a frenzy with their current range of camo Pedal Mafia and Attaquer are doing great collaborations and the Pedal Mafia summer palate is sweet. Plenty more Australia brands to give love to Black Sheep, Babaci, Hunter Bros, Cat1 Not a fan of the big logo on Cycology kit Did write a big list of brands outside of Australia, but youtube ate it ;-)

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Certainly can look at these brands in the future. I wanted to get a good cross section of styles here. The brands you mention are all very similar in their look and while Castelli and ASSOS are not that big here, they are still have a huge market share in the US and UK.

[@olivercarpenter7563]

Would love to see a fashion Friday’s looking at Aussie brands

[@adamgriss2025]

Assos bib shorts are definitely the best. As far as collections go, I love Eliel’s collection as well as Attacus.

[@bremnet1812]

The LeCol pro bibs are the besssst! Even better than Assos.

[@TheMASDrummer]

Cool video idea

[@deepspringboy]

Can we get a Karoo 2 review, Chris? I'm very close to purchasing either an Edge 830 or K2

[@discbrakefan]

Go the 830… I’ve owned both

[@MartinOroszi]

I have a Garmin 1030 and thinking of going Karoo 2....

[@bremnet1812]

They are both junk. Look elsewhere.

[@deepspringboy]

@@bremnet1812 not a whole lot of other options apart from Wahoo, which I personally don’t like the look of aesthetically

[@tomrachellesfirstdance7843]

What's your thoughts on wearing team kit? A lot of people really frown upon it here in the UK.

[@MartinOroszi]

Gotta go MAAP or Pedla if you want to look good ;)

[@johnclement7621]

Universal colours is worth a look Chris

[@zeuszuki6698]

Tinelli does some nice kit, works for me.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

I used to ride down tinelli stuff, quite underrated quality, but terrible designs.

[@zeuszuki6698]

@Chris Miller Cycling yeah the designs can be hit and miss. I just mix and match their bibs to whatever top suits the ride (cold, hot, rain ....NZ weather lol).

[@adamsims6490]

We lost the sound at the 2:30 mark mate... Love a bit of cycling fashion chat... The big question you need to ask the viewers is "black and navy" worn together... its a "no"

[@HarryTzianakisTheGodOfSpeed]

WTF its still Thursday over here!! you scared the poop out of me

[@czeckson74]

always EF: from GIRO20 ducks to pink to GIRO21 black with pastell figures

[@Greso11]

Love ya Blog Chris, but after that posting - I’m definitely not taking “on the bike” fashion tips from you mate. Those graffiti & hand Jerseys were shocking!! 🤣🤣

[@TheCountrySteve]

With regard to Le Col, never pay full price. If you do one of their easily-achievable monthly Strava challenges you will get a £50 off code. I'm assuming there's an equivalent for the rest of the world. Brings the prices down to where they should be

[@blakegillmer]

I’d love to see what you would do with $1000AUD in current market. What would you spend on for a bike upgrades and if you were purchasing new kit, shoes and helmet so on.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Hey Blake, cool concept. Will put that on the list for FF ideas for sure. Thanks mate.

[@seriousbees]

Im a fan of Black Sheep's designs

[@breathestrongcycling3672]

Le col ,Rapha, Pas Normal, Attaquer and many more are all available at knockdown prices on shopee and Lazada here in Asia.....all totally legit of course 😉😉😉😉😉😉✌️...but that's probably a topic for another video...

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

EBay cycling kits … yeh I think there is something there we can look at.

[@chrisvanbuggenum871]

Yeah cycology does cool designs and always have but unfortunately its not a very racy fit, my small was still too big and i couldn't get bibs small enough.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Seriously hit and miss that brand by the looks

[@MazingerZX]

How about some Ostroy jerseys?

[@Tim_McMurray]

Lapassione is great, maybe look at them and Pedal Mafia in another video

[@DanTuber]

flat colours is not his thing

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

I think I’m bias againt that passione one … they spammed me on social media a couple of years back and pretty much blocked them. That said, the look seems similar to Le Col.

[@DanTuber]

@@ChrisMillerCycling LP's quality is very good.

[@markhallowell4059]

Unless wearing my club or bunch kit, then solid colour for me, no patterns. Gone there a couple of times, relegated to solo early morning rides hidden under the gilet.

[@wendysuperfan1014]

Thanks Chris.

[@Dave-sy9wl]

Isadore make great jerseys, not as loud as some others.

[@johnclement7621]

What is the “UK” look Chris … being in the UK interested to know how the world sees us ?

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Haha!!! I think we have a fashion Friday vlog right there “dress like a Uk rider” 😂

[@TurneyUK]

You like the patterns, but you wouldn’t buy it because you are stuck with one brand - Rapha. You have to wear it’s as it is a sponsor. Our club switched to Le Col and I don’t hate it. The quality of their jerseys are good and price wise not as expensive as an Assos or Rapha. The one thing I’ve not been so keen on is the pad in the shorts. They have a way to go to catch up with these other brands. You do get what you pay for in terms of comfort in the saddle.

[@TurneyUK]

PS, did you notice that the Castelli climbers jersey was all sold out.

[@lilth501]

I'm rocking a brand called Wattie ink From the USA

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Will check them out

[@bremnet1812]

Cycolgy, from my experience is garbage. I had quality control issues right from the start. When I contacted the company, they didn't want to provide any sort of customer service. They came off with an all sales are finial, buyer beware attitude.

[@sangchuw]

Fashion Friday not good for my wallet 😂

[@KushPizzaSleep]

Spexcel is better than MAAP, PNS ect at 1/5th the price

[@BrettKelly74]

I’ve got a cycology jersey, it’s good value for money.

[@ChrisMillerCycling]

Some of those designs though 😳

[@BrettKelly74]

@@ChrisMillerCycling no, I got the day of the dead design, I’m not the out there just yet 🤣🤣🤣
