Hi,
Does anyone know of any MTB style tops, that have a rear pocket to either carry a phone or some gels if you didnt want your camelbak on or for easy access to gels when in a event? So you didnt have to remove your camelbak and stop!
Have a Planet-X clubman style top wihich is ideal for road, but would prefer something a bit looser for the MTB?
Cheers
Gore do a nice one with two zipped pockets at the back.
I would stick to tight traditional 3 pocket jerseys. You want the contents of the pockets to be held firmly against your back, not swaying around in a loose fitting jersey.
morvelo Do one with a zipped pocket http://a-pic-a-ride.blogspot.co.uk/p/morvelo-mtb-jersey-review.html?m=1
That Morvelo would be great with short sleeves!
Endura Humvee (pockets are sturdy enough not to swing about with phone/gels)

I've just picked up a roval one from CRC in the sale with zipped pocket for a tenner. Also got a couple of decathlon ones with zipped pockets on the sides which I prefer, would rather a multitool through the kidney than through my spine.... Definitely only go for zips with relaxed cut tops though, stuff won't stay in otherwise.
Both nice fit for mtb, relaxed but not full on eminiem cut.
from NZ - ship to UK but i guess need to add handling and vat - no idea duty on clothes
- I bought one of their long sleeve UV blocking road tops for summer riding in Oz - noticed this - with pocket away from camelbak - not sure how big the pocket is though
I'm normally a bargain bucket sort of guy but the road shirt was well worth the money

Take a look at the ion stuff. It's really well made, v comfortable and the trail jerseys have 3 pockets at the rear, one of which is zipped, and quite roomy.
Shop around an u may find them pretty cheap (20-30 quid).
