Would probably be interested if there was one but wasn't this only done recently?

I have to admit, I was rather envious of Marts BB gilet last weekend. Wish I'd gotten one now.

Uhm, crossed my mind the other week just how much you stink and could do with a new jersey :wink:

I think the last batch may have being longer ago than I'm thinking ... or maybe not? Anyway, yes it sounds like a good idea and I'm wondering whether it might be time for a re-design. Maybe a few alterations to this one or something altogether new? Thoughts?

I crashed in my jersey and it has two big holes on the right that haven't yet been fixed. I was the only one in a non-BB jersey for the shropshire loop, I picked the most anti-BB jersey I could though :grin:

I still have my gilet, which I wear when needed, love it. I would say that it's not perhaps as breathable as some of my others (I now have quite a collection) but i still love it, it's my off road gilet.

If you're going to amend it Stu, make sure the Pole-A-Bear is on the back rear pocket with the "Keeping it up all night" slogan. I miss it.

Zipped pocket/pockets would be nice, with maximum gnarr stuff bounces free.

(and also gutted I didn't get the wind gilet)

Wore mine on Ride London yesterday and got a couple of comments! Bikepacking is so de rigueur at the moment

Yep, despite my dislike of corporate images I'd better be in this time if it happens please. Especially if it's bamboo then neither myself nor Mike will ever smell again....

Although you did say we'd have to wait until 2026 Stu - but I'm not sure it would be a good look in my old folks home.

At this point I think it would be helpful to have a photo of what one looks like. Possibly a close up of the chest area so we can check what the fit is like :roll:.

For a small fee and a couple of BB badges I'm prepared to model one this time if you feel that would be beneficial to sales.....or...erm..

A re-working of the existing design or a new look is fine with me...

I have holes in my right sleeve from falling off on the ice last year.

Thorn proof would be good or at least a material that didn't pull long loops out as you ride through the undergrowth.
And of course something blood will wash out of.
Tweed?

I've actually noticed that my BB jersey is awful for getting blood out of. It stains really easily.

Familiarity with gentlemen's outfitters or drapery not being my strong suit (arf!), what's the difference between a shirtsleeved jersey and a gilet. Apart from a gilet being a razor-sharp (arf again :smile:) look..
