While many predicted fluoro had done its dash last year, there seems to be a resurgence in stylish hi-vis clothing – for good reason, given that anything that makes you more visible on the road is a positive thing.
Our own Ben Delaney recently told us to ‘Light ‘em Up’, pointing out how simple (and fashionable) it can be to be much more visible on the road. As drivers become more distracted and aggravated, it puts us in danger, and the more visible we can be the better.
But for those of us good old boys (and girls) who like cutoff short jorts, duck hunting, and drinking PBR before the hipsters got a hold of it, there is another exciting trend in cycling clothing, although possibly a dangerous one – camouflage.
While the camo is a bit of a ‘wear at your own risk’ ordeal, as a card-carrying redneck I’m attracted to it like a fly to one of those light up bug zappers.
It’s now possible to outfit yourself from head to toe in camo – here are my top bits of leafy green, multicam and realtree.
