As title, I have been invited to a last minute stag cycling holiday, from Wednesday next week... The idea was to get a dodgy jersey like this- https://road.cc/content/tech-news/worst-cycling-jersey-ever-274375
However, all of them seem to have 2-4 week postage. Any ideas? Other suggestions welcomed, but nothing to crass or sweary 😀

Saw a Trump one like that, if not Planet X have some truly awful team replicas

I hate to be 'that guy' but how about not buying a cycling jersey for 1 week that you'll almost certainly never wear again?

That specific company are total *s.

I ordered from them around 24th June, items were only sent once I had started a Paypal claim 35 days after order! When arrived the sizing is out (ordered medium and jerseys measure as large in length and even more generous around the body) and the quality is terrible (poor seams, misaligned zips, different design to advertised, not at all a cycling jersey shape).
For reference their commitment is 2 day to dispatch (unless you customise) and 15 day delivery, with an extra week allowed currently for Covid.

Contact them and if you are lucky you might get a standard boilerplate response, look into them and you will find many unhappy customers who have either eventually receive ill fitting kit or nothing at all.

Currently waiting the outcome of a PayPal claim on items not being as described (size and quality) but not overly hopeful.

I've raised it with Road.cc (thanks for the link, I had been trying to find it) as only bought due to their promotion of those sters.

I hear that body-paints have in the past been used to good effect in pursuit of special event funanigans.

Was going to suggest the Top-Bonk one but seems to be unavailable in the UK now.

Top-Bonk Jersey

Too late to order one of these: Butt Crack Jersey
but maybe you could take a pair of scissors to an old jersey and pretend?

Plenty of pre-loved "ironic" ones on Ebay.

So it’s needed in five days time? Something on Amazon and use Prime, only way to get anything that quick.
Just putting funny cycling jerseys into amazon.co.uk brings up loads, there ought to be something worth buying, there’s one which has a skeleton ribcage design, which isn’t so bad you would never want to wear it again.

I’ve raised it with <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">Road.cc</span> (thanks for the link, I had been trying to find it) as only bought due to their promotion of those ***sters

Update 7th August 2020: road.cc have asked Bicycle Booth for a statement after being made aware of negative feedback from customers regarding shipping delays and product descriptions.

Yes, Road.cc were really responsive. They made it clear it was an article not a promotion of the product or company, but said they would put a note on (they have) and contact the firm before determining if further action needs to be taken.

Really responsible publishing and a refreshing attitude, credit to Jack and the guys at road.cc

Shame that Foska no longer do the Duff Beer one. The ones now available are missing “Binge Responsibly” on the rear zipped pocket.
