Ian, I do so love a good recommendation. Let me go see what this Topo Designs is all about. Thanks! On May 26, 2024, at 2:23 PM, ian m <darkgizz...@gmail.com> wrote:
Leah,
Not sure if you are or were looking for recommendations as much as just interested in a chat about cycling fashions, but either way my wife swears by Topo Designs for everyday cycle commuter wear. Judging from your pictures she has a similar style to you. She loves the Dirt pants and shorts especially. They're a thin cotton canvas with stretch, articulated knees, a gusset, and the freedom of an elastic waistband.
Meanwhile I'm over here waiting for men's shorts to go back to the days of a more reasonable inseam like 3-5", so like Armand generally wearing cut-offs

I think your ‘fit is definitely bike stylish! Those are great shorts and I like the helmet, too. Even the sweat is a good look - shows you REALLY DID IT out there!
Not necessarily "styling", but a lone picture of me on the Los Angeles invitational ride recently climbing up Mt Lowe. Super stretchy ripton denim shorts are as close to lycra as denim can be, with a super thin icebreaker merino base layer. Sweat reflects about a 4000ft climb in less than 12 miles. :) New purple POC helmet happened to match the Platy, heavily discounted on bikecloset.com right now. (Replace your helmet folks! I didn't have a good look at my ~8 year old Giro helmet and it was riddled with cracks in all the corners). I don't condone Rapha wear, but I have found their polycotton cycling caps to some of the best, which I'm wearing here. As a fully bald headed person a good cycling cap is critical.

Time to revive this thread. Because…well, when you have the perfect shoes for your bike, you gotta let people know.
Now you'll have to answer the question ... did you get the bike to match the shoes, or the shoes to match the bike?
