That is exactly what I meant - I even have a hard time grouping designs and geometrics/color blocks in the same category... Give me a design or solid color any time! Originally Posted by Pedal Wench

Pedal Wench has it. Plain or print is too simplistic. Most of my jerseys are plain but my all-time fave jersey has a bold pattern, white on black. I can't stomach the busy little prints that look like they have bits of carrot in them. No pink here either.

My favorite jerseys have a bold print but not like Sheila Moon. I love primal wears jerseys, I have four and they are all great looking plus bright. Well except the black dragonfly one but that is for mountain biking.
And of course the Amici Veloci is still one of my favorites.

Exactly how I feel also! And perfect examples in those two different jerseys. Originally Posted by oz rider

In the PedalWench survey - Jersey #1 over #2, hands down.
Don't like the fussy prints. I like Hawaiian prints, or poster type prints. In my jersey collection, I don't have any solids, so I had to pick "prints" over "solid". Unfortunately there are so many types of "printed" that it gets confusing.

I voted for solid, but would take something like Pedal Wench's #1 jersey in a heartbeat. I'd describe it as a print that reads as a solid.
The wild, busy patterns are not for me. I'm quite big enough as it is now, darn it, I don't need my clothes making me look even bigger.
ETA: While we're on the subject, I also dislike large company logos all over jerseys. I'm not a racer, I'm not sponsored, and I am most definately NOT a mobile billboard for any company. (humph!)Last edited by MomOnBike; 02-18-2010 at 08:15 AM. Reason: thought of something else
