Albion, nice and a reasonable amount of pocket locations

Yes, it's a really nice solid, dark olive tone. Goes great with loads of colours. ...but had to look up what rosin is; a solid pine resin, used in varnishes and coatings.

Good to see @hippy hope there's plenty more miles in them!

Would love to see merino ts cut for riding in with a higher front and slightly dropped tail. Wouldn’t work off bike but would be great for riding in with cargo bibs. Slightly longer sleeve, too. Just 2p.

The new bibs look great, especially in the new green

These launched yesterday? Not a massive front/back drop (which you can't see in the front-on product shot), but still enough for riding ....might be able to do something with the sleeve length, let down the cuff, and finish with an interior lycra-facing instead to eeek out another 2cm?

Yeah I like that tee - bibs combo too

I like these.

What I’ve always wanted tho and I’ve asked before if anyone has seen in other threads, is a t-shirt with rear pockets like a jersey. They’d need to be smaller and tighter i guess to avoid the dreaded back pocket sag. I like the idea of riding in a t-shirt, without the need to carry something else to put my phone and keys in.

Massive thumbs up for the marino tshirts that Chopsicle posted super comfortable for a days riding. I ride mountain bikes / gravel so really appreciate the non roadie fit. Bascially now want one in every colour. top work Albion!

You need cargo bibs. They have pockets on the back as well as the sides.

Yeah, nice, but I mean even more front/back cut. I like riding in a merino t but I don’t like the look of “T-shirt ride YOLO ETC”

The hem should sit just above the crotch and not drop below your arse when standing. IMO …but not look like a crop top.

just get a stem bag IMO. Or wear shorts that you can put your phone in.

Or go phoneless and dangle your keys off your saddle.

Or go shortsless and carry your phone in your arsecrack

natures cargo pocket

There was the H&M x BLB collabo from 10 years ago that had this t shirt with pockets idea (which kinda explain a lot)

any chance of a cargo bib - merino tee bundle?

Burner was on point today!

Massive thumbs up for the marino tshirts that Chopsicle posted

How is the sizing? Want to get one of the limestone ones, but sit bang on the line of medium/large. (large zoa fits me nicely).

They're quite long in the body. I'm somewhere between a small and the medium is a good fit, if slightly long.

After finding the ultralight weight jacket didn't quite fit, picked up a Zoa lightweight, banging. Only think was needing to size down.

Has anyone else noticed the logo on the more recent version of the bib shorts tends to degrade more quickly?

Sportful giara tees have three pockets on the back. I got one recently from Sport Pursuit but not put it to the test yet. I'm not sure how well the pockets will hold up with a phone in.

I've found it pot luck, old models do it too.

Talk to me about the Zoa rain pants.

Had to panic buy a 17EU pair from Decathlon before S7 and they lasted a whole 1.5 days of pissing rain off-road before the arse fell out of them (riding a prong-nose Adamo probably didn't help, the saddle cover was also shredded). But they did keep my legs mostly clean and warm. Buy cheap buy twice...

Anyway, I now want some proper ones that aren't super flappy and maybe aren't boil-in-a-bag.

My biggest concern really is pack space - how small do these squash down to? I'll obviously be in the bigger sizes XL or XXL so don't want my saddle bag entirely filled with rain pants.

You need some assless chaps
