    Outlier bike clothing

    I really hope this company succeeds (and restocks the women's daily riding pants):

    I've found that traditional bike/athletic wear (even my beloved Sporthill Versa pants) doesn't do well tromping through bushes.

    Don't bother commenting on the helmetless biker with one hand on the handlebars. That's just the way it is.

    They describe fabrics, but it's hard to find on their site:

    I do think it was a mistake to use a red-colored liquid in the photo.

    I'm not sure that I like the fact that they describe the women's pant as having "all the features of the men's". I don't know why, but I find that offputting. It makes me feel like an afterthought. I think that I'm not their main market either way. They seem to be geared to commuters (who think helmets would mess their hair).

    I'm not commenting on their quality or their fit. Their clothes may be great. I'm just saying they wouldn't get my money with their website.
