Loose fit cycling tops

[Over The Hill]

Thanks for all the feedback - really helpful with lots to follow up on.

If you want a loose fit jersey buy one 2 sizes over your own size. If you want a tight jersey buy one 2 sizes below. I think?

Lok for MTB specific tops. They tend to be baggier. Altura, Polaris,mDare2Be, Royal, Fox, the list goes on

The Decathlon basic tops are not skin tight. I bought a couple for commuting about 4 years ago and they are still fine. I use them when I am out on the mtb when I don't want the tight lycra look .

Do they still count if I put you on my ignore list?

I have just taken a punt on a couple of these. They seem to fit the bill for those not wanting to look like a MAMIL. At £5 each they must be worth a try.
They haven't arrived yet so cant give you a review, will update once they arrive.

That's my local big bike show in Newcastle, well the start cycles part is they are all in the city centre. They do lots of jerseys like that for a fiver along with the more mile ones I mentioned earlier if you want to look more road biker

I've got some bspoke shorts and they are quite good on and off the bike

But whenever the brand comes up I always remember the contrast between this review and this one

I don't know what they will be like but for £5 a shirt I thought it was worth trying a couple. They might be the bargain of the year or they may turn out to be a waste of money but at that price I will risk it.

I got some lovely bright orange muddy fox/karrimor ones from sports direct. They're a reasonably loose fit, have 3 pockets (1 zipped) at the back. I commute in them and they're great.

Just bought one of these for commuting and fit is just right for what you are looking for and I believe Altura stuff in general is quite loose fitting.

Unlike the people that shop there

I tried on one of the Aldi cycling tops, supposedly in my size and my wife informed me that I looked like Disney's Mr Incredible (before he gets back into shape) - It's back to the khaki shirt and shorts for me then

+1 for MTB tops.

I generally just use hiking/waking tops. Arguably a bit too loose sometimes. One On Merinos were the only ones I found that weren't tight, right until they go in a hot wash ofc.

Hi, I had the same issue, not a lycra fan and not too slim around the belly either, ended up with a Mavic Sprint Relax and its really comfy, doesn't hug and not too baggy, plus loadsa pockets. Check size on size chart as L from 1 brand is different size to L from another.
