In anticipation of ditching the bib tights and winter kit; what is the fashionista kit of choice for 2018?

I never seem to fit castelli jerseys ... pockets always seem to hang down at back too far; Rapha kit stereotypical Mamil, and of course too expensive; Morvelo seem to be having a melt down with the kit design.

What kit is good at the moment?

I tend to look first at stolengoat.com. I've had jerseys and a jacket and they seem to be a good balance of performance and price

Lidl or Aldi.  If they are not good enough for you, Decathlon are pretty dam good

Stolen Goat look promising ... Aldi/Lidl not quite the label to be honest, ok for winter kit though I guess.

Some of the Aldi/Lidl stuff is good (winter gloves for example) but some of it is crap.

I mostly use Castelli or Rapha - I tend to buy the former in Wiggle sales and the latter when Rapha are doing good deals on bundles.

Stolen goat for summer jerseys. Rapha doesn’t fit me at all.

castelli for mixed conditions. Gabba ss etc

morvelo. Pure crap poorly made from cheap fabric.

Lusso for me, still actually made in the UK rather than just designed here, good quality and fit for me and generally pretty good value.
