You can get non-team cycling kits. Completely neutral kits that aren't made by a team.
I'm also pretty certain it would be possible to get a new from an old team, if that made sense...Jspear wrote:Why are professional team kits sold to the public if it's not alright to wear them? I personally don't get the fuss. IMO it's fine to wear a team kit, old or new.
Coz the teams want to make money.

, thinking that wearing Eddy's gear would push me to live up to it, ride even harder...

Wearing Pro team kit is also questionable if you’re not paid to wear it. If you must fly the colors of Pro teams, all garments should match perfectly, i.e no Mapei jersey with Kelme shorts and Telekom socks.

So how about wearing a trek/cannondale jersey whilst riding a bianchi, BMC etc. ?

Now that's a tough one. I think old jerseys are fine on any bike. Current team jerseys would look a bit weird on anything other than that brand bike.
