Custom Jakroo Cycle Jersey Review
Jersey - Front & Back
I hunted high and low for XXL jerseys in Japanese stores and it seems that all cyclists in Japan are no larger than an M, with the occasional XL online.
I ended up looking at stores online both locally and abroad, and prices, as with all things cycling related, get high quickly.
I wanted a jersey that looked the part with a few sponsor logos/graphics, wasn't plain, and was possibly bright enough to improve safety. Unfortunately, I couldn't find exactly what appealed to me.
After hours of research, I decided that for the prices I was seeing, I might as well make my own darn jersey. So I did.
It was a bit of a time investment but turned out nice in the end. I converted the blue robot icon avatar I have here and on my teacher resources website into a jersey and mountain bike shorts.
I'm not cyclist-shaped and didn't want a cling-film potato look, so it's loose yet comfy in parts. It's really nice in warm, cold, and humid weather thanks to breathable fabric. The yellow circle logo against black looks nice and hopefully catches the attention of truck drivers in tunnels.
