LFGSS CC - LFGSS Cycle Club

Anyone want to see a draft? Acknowledging that your opinion really isn't going to sway me.

Go on then.

Tempt me...

If you must

"Stop messing about..."

This is the draft.

It's an early working draft, and there are a few changes being considered.

Gist is:
1) Mostly black, but not plain.
2) Small details for the LFGSS banding of blue-white-blue, not even forming full cuffs or hem (which I think it unique for cycle jerseys).
3) The LFGSS logo will be fractionally smaller, but is still clear enough.
4) Where it says KITCHEN on the back, is a space for you to put your forum username, it will be case sensitive so Velocio would be mine.

The jersey remains a full-zip Milltag and has all the benefits of quality you would expect from that.

Note: There will be changes. This is a draft only.

What's the character limit?

Oh, the back.

Which hasn't yet been darkened one more shade (it will be as grey looks foul when too sweaty), and it still has the banding on the collar (but that has been removed as it looks like a vicar's clerical collar from the front).

Very nice...

Would definitely buy.

Do want.

:(

Freaking large, and freaking small.

How large are the freaking large ones? The reason I'm asking is because I really want sharkpits and I am willing to get my sewing kit out to smallify a giant one if necessary. Stop being coy >:(

Edit: OBVIOUSLY I'm also going to buy one of the other ones but I still want sharkpits in the meantime

In that case, I'll have "Sky" on the back of mine!

Is the honeycomb design linked to Microcosm or Brentford Bees?

When can we order :)

Looks awesome - great work and done in no time at all, there are benefits to being a dictator and I'll have one for sure.
As a thought - I'd be using it for commuting as well as the occasions I make it to HHV, could the white bits be made in reflective material without a significant cost increase?

reflective?

Fine - point made, I'll go and buy some triple As for my lights

But i was thinking more like Rapha

The honeycomb pattern is up for debate (me against myself).

I want the jersey to look plain from a distance, but interesting and reeking in quality up close.

The honeycomb works as an example of how a pattern may help that, but I think the pattern is too simple for it to work as well as it could. It should be more interesting, and less obvious (lower contrast still).

It's a printed jersey, as nearly all club jerseys are. So I think this makes it extremely unlikely that the white will be reflective.

I would recommend lights on your bike :)

honeycomb has some weird corporate feel, you need a subtle sprokets type pattern that can be used as the background to the black foreground colour.

is there an option to get reflective piping on the seams either side of the pocket cluster? I have big enough lights front back and side so my high vis starts and ends with a small amount of piping on the jersey/shorts because sometimes I get caught out being later than I should have been.

Chevrons and a selection of the forum's favourite TLAs?

Can I have all 8 of my aliases on the back of mine?

It's your jersey.

If you don't want your username, you can put whatever you choose. You're the one that will wear it.

There is a limited amount of space, it's only 1 line, and the longer username people might have to compromise a little or choose their real first name or something.
