Randomguy Posted May 28, 2021 Share #3 Posted May 28, 2021 I hope you called the fashion police, and they came and locked up the offenders so they couldn't poison society any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell you how many of these fashion-challenged nincompoops I have to chase down and yell at. It is nearly a full-time job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted May 29, 2021 Share #6 Posted May 29, 2021 My socks are mostly black, as they should be. So are my shoes. If I didn't already have new shoes, I would buy these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am feeling self-conscious I might scrunch them down a tad. Other times I don't GAF. I don’t think fashion police really bother with old men.

donkpow Posted May 29, 2021 Share #8 Posted May 29, 2021 Do you remember that long distance cyclist from the LF? Road Worrier. He wore knee high ski socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted May 29, 2021 Share #9 Posted May 29, 2021 Before I had my varicose veins fixed I had to wear thigh high compression stockings for three months. The ones from hospital supply were disgusting, flesh tone they looked industrial women’s nylons. I got some online that were black. They just looked like I was wearing leg warmers. Still probably looked strange an old man wearing leg warmers in August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knee high socks are great for MTB. I wear the socks and knee pads come right down over the sock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comments I hear from fellow cyclists about the fashion choices of other cyclists is pretty funny. One guy locally was made fun of for wearing a sleeveless jersey that is the more common wear for tri people. I wore a t shirt, and one person locally was like "Where is your jersey?" I laughed at her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I laughed at her. I was making a joke. I am all about function over fashion. I could care less what someone wears, I mean my riding glasses are tinted safety glasses I found while diving in Salt Lake City like 10 years ago. I had a friend working for Belkin when they sponsored a pro tour team and he sent me a set of the team kit. I still wear the bib shorts, but will just wear them with random tops(apparently a big cycling fashion no-no to mis-match shorts and tops) All my socks are ankle high for riding because I have very big calf muscles and skinny ankles which makes for quite the taper. Any sock the height in the picture either has to be super tight on my leg (gross) or ends up sliding down as I sweat and bunched up (double gross) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
