Between brands, fabrics, colors, sizes, and accessory pairings, the combinations are essentially infinite. Trends shift year by year too. Take the cycling jersey: the construction of today&#8217;s pieces looks nothing like what we were wearing a few years back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro\">Amid all this, most cyclists build their personal style through trial and error, taking a winding path of experiments and missteps.<br \/>\nBut <strong>great styling follows a certain &#8220;grammar,&#8221;<\/strong> and knowing the basics of color coordination and accessory selection turns the search for your own kit into a far more rewarding journey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro\">You could argue the ultimate answer is &#8220;just wear what you like.&#8221; Yet, just as there is such a thing as a &#8220;beautifully built road bike,&#8221; there is undeniably such a thing as <strong>beautiful cyclist styling<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"intro\">This time, using Pas Normal Studios \u2014 a brand with one of the broadest color palettes in the game \u2014 as a reference, we sit down with cycling journalist Tsukasa Yoshimoto to talk through the fundamentals of road cycling style.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; background: #f1f1f1; border-radius: 5px; padding: 1px 12px 1px;\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">The Speakers<\/span><\/h3>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: none; width: 425px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35424\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_28-272x182.jpg 272w\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border: none; width: 425px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35450\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tats-profile_pns.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tats-profile_pns.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tats-profile_pns-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tats-profile_pns-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/tats-profile_pns-272x182.jpg 272w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 110px;\">\n<td style=\"border: none; vertical-align: top; height: 110px; width: 50%;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10px;\"><strong>Tsukasa Yoshimoto (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kop_2014\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-nodal=\"\">@kop_2014<\/a>)<br \/>\n<\/strong>Former editor-in-chief of the monthly cycling magazine &#8220;Cycle Sports.&#8221; Today he works across a range of bicycle-focused projects.

So for this conversation I&#8217;d like to focus on the classic tight jersey + bib shorts setup.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: The color options, bib shorts included, have really exploded recently.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: It&#8217;s a huge shift from the primary-color-heavy lineups we used to see.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: If you go back, up through the 2000s everyone was watching road racing and mimicking that look. Race kit was designed to stand out within the peloton, so the color palettes were sharp and punchy.<br \/>\nNow, cycling has become more embedded in lifestyle, and the palette has shifted from standing out to harmonizing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: The turning point was around when Rapha put Team Sky in that black-based kit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Exactly. Black kit basically didn&#8217;t exist before then.<br \/>\nPerhaps because of that shift, this year&#8217;s Tour dropped the tone of the maillot vert, and the reception hasn&#8217;t been great, precisely because it doesn&#8217;t stand out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: Oh, people don&#8217;t like it? I thought the deeper green looked good, but you&#8217;re right, it does get lost in the peloton.

Jerseys give you more room to play with colour in terms of both lineup and price, so keeping the bottom achromatic is one solid approach.

That&#8217;s the starting point for sizing.<br \/>\nEven with high-end brands like Rapha or PNS, you occasionally see people wearing them oversized, and it feels like such a waste. It doesn&#8217;t just spoil the look, it also robs the jersey of its performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: If a shop that carries the brand you want is within reach, it&#8217;s worth going to try things on.<br \/>\nAnd even if not, if you don&#8217;t yet have a clear sense of what size actually works for your body, going to a shop that stocks cycling apparel and picking your first piece with their advice is a great way to start.<\/p>\n<div class=\"maxphoto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35399\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_1-272x182.jpg 272w\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">It all begins with learning the fit unique to cycling apparel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Shops that still choose to stock apparel in this day and age tend to genuinely love it, so you&#8217;ll usually get proper advice when you visit.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m into PNS these days, but honestly, PNS&#8217;s fit was hard to accept at first.

What makes sizing even trickier is that fit can differ between series within the same brand. PNS Essential vs Mechanism, or Rapha Core vs Pro Team, for example. For those, visiting a flagship store to get a feel for the sizing is the safest bet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Every brand has its own intended way of being worn.

And with emerging brands like Udog offering more accessible pricing, we&#8217;re in a great era with more choices than ever.<\/p>\n<div class=\"maxphoto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28818\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/udog-cima_18-272x182.jpg 272w\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Shoe design has been elevated across the board<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Socks are white too, right?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: Yeah. White, black, and navy are the basics. A few years back, flashy sock designs were a popular way to add an accent to your outfit, but lately the trend is to keep things simple and make everything harmonize head-to-toe.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Let&#8217;s talk about sock length too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: I can only speak to the last decade or so, but they&#8217;ve been getting gradually longer, haven&#8217;t they?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Exactly. In the 2000s, about 3cm above the ankle was standard, but ever since Lance Armstrong started wearing long socks, they kept getting longer. At the time Lance&#8217;s length was generally considered uncool, but now covering the lower part of the calf has become the standard.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: That length is the trend, but for shorter riders it has the downside of making the legs look shorter. So some people deliberately choose shorter socks as a styling choice.<\/p>\n<div class=\"maxphoto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35435\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide_34-272x182.jpg 272w\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Sock length affects the visual length of your legs<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Height is a tricky issue. The standard silhouette of today&#8217;s apparel originates in Europe, so it&#8217;s designed for taller builds. It&#8217;s a tough world for Asian body types to begin with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: Painful. You just have to work with your individual body type.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: That said, Pas Normal Studios jerseys run on the shorter side, so they don&#8217;t look stretched out even on shorter riders. If you can&#8217;t find a jersey that suits you, PNS might be worth trying on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: Ah, that makes sense.

Both of us have been through plenty of trial and error, investing heavily in ourselves along the way. But looking back, none of that spending was really wasted.<br \/>\nEveryone tries to gather information and find the answer via the shortest route possible, but the shortest route actually gives you the least insight. Chasing efficiency in a hobby is counterproductive. Enjoying the detours is what a hobby is really about.<br \/>\nApparel is the same as choosing equipment. The real pleasure is trying things out and making that knowledge part of yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tats<\/strong>: Exactly. What we&#8217;ve talked about today is just the fundamentals, and the most enjoyable part of the process is thinking about how you&#8217;d style things based on that foundation.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s still a widespread notion that &#8220;wearing Rapha or PNS is fashionable,&#8221; but if you&#8217;re going to choose these brands, I&#8217;d rather people focus on the joy of optimising for themselves, not simply &#8220;looking stylish.&#8221;<br \/>\nAs Yoshimoto-san says, apparel is part of your equipment. In terms of optimising for yourself, choosing apparel is the same as choosing tyres or a saddle. And ultimately, that translates into the pleasure of the ride itself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"maxphoto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35452\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide-img_12.jpeg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide-img_12.jpeg 1500w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide-img_12-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide-img_12-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/lovecyclist.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/magnet-styling-guide-img_12-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Apparel is a critical factor that shapes the ride<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Yoshimoto<\/strong>: Apparel has two sides: &#8220;style&#8221; and &#8220;function.&#8221; Rapha and PNS tend to be discussed only in terms of style, but in reality the whole category has been elevated, function included.<br \/>\nLooking at the past decade or so, ASSOS and Castelli cultivated the functional side first, then Rapha and PNS took the lead on style.
