I actually saw someone wearing one of these one time. I never saw someone on a look bicycle wearing one. Maybe saw 2 Zed jerseys..I bet official LA teammate fanboys bought more Astana skin suits than all the La Vie Claire and Z Jerseys sold combined.

Not affiliated in any way but...

Ever dreamed of being a youthful Lemond? A miserable old Badger? Or just a dodgy matchfixer like Bernard Tapie? :)

Well now you too can own this Piet Mondriaan-inspired slice of history!

(Without wanting to start another crap jersey thread, and allowing for differing contemporary tastes, isn't this a candidate for best jersey of all time?)

Owning it and wearing it is two different things..Under a jacket in the winter is good. It definitely is a best of all time.

Can't say I've ever been taken with the La Vie Claire jersey. Retro jerseys are the future, though.

My training bike is black with orange and white detailing, and so I'm thinking about getting this to match:

Can't beat the old Syteme U and 7 Eleven jerseys. Can buy them on ebay but just as a kit. Just want the shirts, not the nicks, socks, etc. Don't want to look too retro.

I wore my long sleeve La Vie Claire jersey on the commute one day last week. It was the first cycling jersey I ever bought, back in 1991.
