Can only be a good thing.

Well maybe not but the more people on bikes the better imo.

I can just picture it now!

I like the idea, the sooner people realise that you can ride in clothes other than "sweaty, figure-hugging lycra" and arrive at the office looking "normal" then the more people will give cycling a go, breaking down another of the barriers between "them" and "us".
I eagerly await a range for men, including fakenger-tastic 3/4 length jeans at less-than-Swrve-tastic prices!

It does look like they're hopping on the hipster/fakenger bandwagon. Look at the bikes in the ads, not to mention the D-lock holsters and the fact that everything's in dayglo/pastel colours.

I usually end up when buying clothes assessing how good it would be to cycle in. My daughter liked the fact I bought some skinnyish trousers before Christmas ... I bought them to stop getting oil on them

So if they produce clothes I would wear then good. Or even if it means someone else would cycle in them then that's still good.

Interesting.

Has anyone checked this range out yet? A friend of mine spotted them the other day and I have a bit of free time after work today so I'm going to pop to Oxford Street to check out their new cycling range!

 

[summerdays]

No - but you can be the official reporter.... we await your opinion.

Oh dear Mikael from Copenhagen will be disappointed, but then again if this gets more people out cycling that has to be a good thing...

It must be that time in the fashion cycle for Velowear to take prominence at the Disco

Well, I couldn't find anything anyway. Looked high and low. Oh well - probably a good thing as I don't really need to spend any more money (oh, except for maybe one more pair of shorts for my forthcoming holiday!)
