    Primal Wear out-does themselves.
    Saw this on my LBS listserv (no, they don't carry it, thankfully, and hopefully TE won't either [edit: oops..omg, they carry it!).
    Funny, tho', is Bike Snob NYC's report on it.
    Love:
    "..any woman who dons this jersey is at severe risk of sudden and complete loss of dignity.."
    and
    "they’ve also managed to successfully show what the world would be like if terrorists detonated a bomb that somehow destroyed all irony while leaving humor intact."
    and
    "this may be the world’s only jersey with an integrated tramp-stamp"

    I actually kind of like it. I've been married for a bizillion years. But I could see taking it on a honeymoon trip.

    I remember the comments on that when it first came out. "Hooker wedding".

    Yeah, that's awful. Would be cute/funny for a Halloween ride, but not worth spending money on for that (IMO)!

    My now-husband and myself actually thought they were funny and were going to use them (there is also a tuxedo top) for our going-away from the wedding. We couldn't find the right sizes so we ended up getting custom wool jerseys instead.

    A tuxedo is dignified.
    There is a niche for a bridal jersey but this one could use a bit of modification.

    I remember that jersey from a couple years ago. Not my cup of tea but each to her own. Of course, I never did the whole bride/big wedding thing, opting instead for elopement and later, getting married by a priest with just parents present.

    One time I told a chick "nice tramp stamp" during a race. Maybe it was just a jersey?

    I'm normally nice, but she was being a bully and everyone in the pack was getting annoyed with her
    Because not every fast cyclist is a toothpick...

    Talk to Susan and suggest they locate a more flattering design. She's always so helpful when I need assistance.

    We were simply expressing opinions about the bridal jersey, not of one another.

    my DH has the tux jersey and he's had more fun with it.
    I didn't care for the cut of the bridal jersey, however, if they made just the right formal dress looking jersey, i might wear it just for fun (like DH does the tux)
