Anyone got any recommendations for cool bike threads? Looking for something a bit classic but can’t afford Rapha. Went to London bike back in Feb and saw some interesting jerseys, problem is they all look the same……. Same pin stripes and same colours.

Surely someone out there is designing something a bit different.

Howies stuff is nice if you like black

Saw some nice giro ‘new road’ gear on the weekend but it’s not cheap.

Yeah howies is nice but can’t get past the whole timberland thing

Then you’re in luck…

As of January 1st [2012], howies got small again.

When we were sold to Timberland in 2006 we became a tiny part of a $2 billion company and that was not easy.

When VF bought Timberland last September we became a miniscule part of a $10 Billion corporation.

So while everybody was crunching the big numbers, the howies management team quietly bought the business back.

We thank VF for giving us the opportunity to be small again.

It could be big.

A lot of these designs seem on point. I’ve never bought them though so I don’t know what the quality / fit is like.

You realise you’re on STW, we only whinge about 27.5 and ask what tyres for canal paths, and whether or not said canal paths will be wet and have puddles at the weekend.

No cool threads here. 😉
