Roadie type with pockets and all - but stylish. Possibly both long and short sleeved. No naff garish colours or team strips please.
Twin Six from Always riding or wiggle. Mellow Johnny - expensive but can get reasonable copies from the far east dirt cheap.
Go to Prendas. Find a classic jersey. Enjoy.
Or, if you want something excellent quality, but without actually being Rapha, try Untouched World. I have one - excellent.
It's going to be used on road mostly (or racing) so it wants to be tight. I have a Smartwool one that I love (thanks Mrs Grips 🙂 ) but I only have the one, plus it's quite thick so will be too warm in summer.
I like the ground effect ones.
primalwear do the odd nice one, try love2pedal.com
also a couple of nice ones at http://www.retroimageapparel.com/retroimagecatalog/jerseys/index.html
Cannondale do some decent ones
Christ this stuff is not cheap!
these are my favourites:

unique design, outstanding quality.
If you're small enough, the STW shop was selling off some small and extra-small jerseys for a fiver a go. I got one, seems good, nice fit, usual three pockets at back. Excellent deal for £5
I treat me'self to a new top the other day - Orca raceday merino .
lovely it is.
[url= http://www.shuttvr.com ]Shutt VR[/url] do nice stuff, prices not as daft as Rapha. All made in the UK as well.
Rapha Classic Jersey. Thread closed 😉
depending on budget, I'd look at the Endura Humvee as a cheapish option. I've got a couple of the FS260 (road) jerseys for commuting on the cross bike and they're great. Humvee is a tad less fitted, subtle styling and Cordura shoulder panels for the inevitable tumbles and at £35, a good buy in my eyes.
Cyclestore are doing 50% off on Nalini short sleeve jerseys, according to the spam they sent me last week.
Not sure about style, but my roadie friends swear by their kit for comfort.

There's also [url= http://www.embersmerino.com/Velo-Cycle-Wear_c109.htm ]Embers Merino[/url] - looks interesting - limited sizes but they've cut the prices

No, you'll find a lot of people on here waste money on "designer" cycling stuff.
Check out the Nike stuff in JEJames' sales.
Endura tops are nice n cool too.

Got loads of Nike stuff from Evans in the sales, MTB stuff. Gutted they have stopped making biking gear really.
not really race, more a statement of intent

TwinSix has some nice designs but the material is quite basic. There are nicer ones on, if you know what I mean.
Saw some Untouched World stuff in Condor at the weekend. That looked nice stuff but maybe in Rapha territory price-wise.
top end dhb stuff from wiggle is good.
cycle-clothing.co.uk do respectable cheap stuff.
what machine is VeloCake man on?
Craft is excellent quality as is ibex. Look here for a number of brands and excellent service:

on-one had short sleeve for £10 and long sleeve for £15
very compfy . . .
I have a Nike jersey, it's excellent to be honest, although plain.

That, my friend, is the latest in beard parting equipment.

It's a microscope slide writer
There's only one jersey to be seen in this year, so exclusive you can't even buy one 😉

They're all naff, each and every one.
Team ones are dreadfull, as are ones like twin six...meaningless tripe, solo just as bad, and get the models YMCA or what.
Rapha is good and looks good as do any plain ones.
Any club jersey is fine.
Mellow Jonnys is a bit accountant/weekend warrior.
One exception in my book - Flandria.
Not quite sure what you just said, but looking at the photo I think an xl maybe a slightly better fit for me 😀
I'm liking my Here Come The Belgians one at the moment

Loco, like the Gumby pose 🙂

You can't your a velocake
I agree with Blackhound. Craft is really good quality and the service from alwaysriding is fantastic...and no I don't work for them but I do most of my shopping online.
I quite like The Cycle Jersey Options... Maybe a tad naff (according to your desription) but very cool
