Check out Vintage Velos. Woolistic jerseys. Some of the nicest merino wool jerseys ever.
But their selection is a bit limited these days.

(Blame the poor search feature of this site if a thread of this type has appeared recently. I don't think it has.)
So six months after finally breaking down and turning to spandex and chamois to pad my rear, I've decided that biking in a tank top just won't cut it.
Keeping style in mind -- because who wants to look like a n00b -- which manufacturers of reproduction team/livery jerseys are worth looking at?
VintageofBikes sells some neat ones at reasonably prices, with free international shipping. Prices are around 25-30 Euros, which isn't terrible.
But who wants something that's going to unravel or otherwise come apart after a few wearings?
Where else have you found reproduction jerseys at a reasonable price that also last a while?
TIA

That Ralph graphic from Rapha is hilarious. I love Ralph.

Does anyone know this „Retro Cycling Jerseys“ webshop? I wonder if one can trust these low prices:
https://www.retro-cycling-jerseys.co...ing-jersey-set
Reminds me a bit of
https://shop.vintageofbikes.com/
(the quality of which I also have strong doubts about).

I have heard good reviews about 2Velo. Their jerseys are wool. And they make a good looking shoe too.
Classic cycling wear, wool jerseys. Retro garments for cycling - 2VELO2VELO ? Vintage cycling Wonderland.

The stuff is so cheap that the investment on a Repro jersey wouldnt be too much, give it a shot an buy one and give us a Review.

I have an old original Raleigh Jersey I bought at about the same time I bought my Raleigh and it is in great shape ( actually bought two!) . It has a tag on it from the Zurich race team under the front on the seam. It is holding up welll after 5 years or so of wearing it. I think I only paid about $25 each for them.

I have a Raleigh (gold, reddish, black and white) and the peugeot jersey linked here from ebay and like them both. My only issue is they are a bit short and thus the top of the pockets are higher up my back. It is a feat of gymnastics to reach into the pockets while riding, especially if it has moved up a bit. I really wrenched my shoulder a few times trying to grab something out of them.

What a great post-I am looking for something to go with my Celeste Bianchi for a couple of historic rides im planning on doing next year. However I think the all wool new one is the route to go. I am middle aged and don't want to look like Bibendum, the Michelin man....

I know it's a tongue-in-cheek take on a vintage jersey but Twin Six released this beauty today and it gave me a good chuckle; https://www.twinsix.com/collections/...oducts/the-612
