Does anyone know of a brand that does a pair of grippy riding shoes for flats that don't make me look like I'm trying to be a skaterboy? 

 

Something with a boa dial.

Something with a boa dial.

But she’s with the skater boy, she said see you later boy. The shoes weren’t good enough for you-o-o-o-oooh

 

But no. I don’t have an answer for you.

Anybody ride with mx designed jerseys? 

Seen these Oneal and Thor but listed for mx?

Any cons, doubt should be unless material is heavier, thicker for mx.

Online shopping so can't go feel the material.

The GOAT wears Oneal but don't often see in shops locally for MTB.

They shouldnt be too different,  the fit may be on the big side because they are often designed to fit body armour underneath, and you wont sommer find short sleeve tops

Been doing it for years. Half the price of MTB ones and almost exactly the same thing. 

Jerseys are never for projection from falls so the fabric is pretty much the same. I even have ones with dedicated ventilation areas and they all lightweight. 

I ride with long sleeves in summer as well to keep the old tattoos from getting sun damage.

Thanks for this info, think I will go this route.

Not even sure why mtb jerseys are more expensive,  and I prefer long or 3/4 sleeve for sun protection and saves the skin from the stupid falls
