Motoring questions you are afraid to ask.

My take on wearing manufacturer branded clothing is that it's fine, provided you work for said manufacturer.

Someone walking through an airport wearing full Porsche Motorsport gear, because they work for Porsche Motorsport, is very cool.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D to that , full kit wan<ers are never, ever cool , let alone full motorsport gear in an airport!

I see parallels with the comment from here back in the day that Mamils wearing professional team brand cycling jerseys and shorts was a bit like getting your 1.0 Focus wrapped in full Colin McCrae RS Focus WRC colours

Bmw clothes have big Alan Partridge energy imo. I have a couple of Daihatsu t-shirts, they have jdm vibes so they sorta work.
Getting out of a BMW with a Daihatsu t-shirt is a cooler look.

I was just thinking of the Castrol gtx jacket at the funeral reading this

A lot of my friends are the work trousers, brown shoes, Twincam jacket types, and I'm not knocking that or poking fun but I often do wonder if there's an element of fitting in with this country boy 'uniform'.


*100% do not take fashion advice from me (not a stylish man) but just my 2 cents as they say! As Roarsbaby/Murakami say- do your thing!

Well its better than Dublin street wear/ yup bro designer clobber

I wear an Alfa Romeo Owners Club fleece jacket, Alfa Romeo tee shirts.
Too old to care what anyone thinks of that TBH
Just do you and f**k everyone else and their opinions - life is too short

Absolutely!
I have a Triumph branded fleece and a few TVR club t-shirts. I prefer this than a big "Levis" or "Hugo Boss", but if you want to brandish Tommy Hilfinger or SuperDry, etc. then rock on!

Pretty much confirming how useless MAs are.

And it's in applied theology - how does that make you feel?

What cyclists wear is pails in comparison to the expletives we all shout frothing at the mouth from the drivers seat as they purposely block the road. any branding couldn't make them look any more like w*****s than they already do

Do you also shout expletives and foam at the mouth at tractor drivers? If not, why are cyclists different?

Tractor drivers have the decency not to be decked out in garish pinks and oranges!

Whatabout the guys in the ev-bikes though ... they're alright surely ?

because they are making a living, not sitting in the middle of the road purely on purpose with bell-end attitude.

Everyone's entitled to use the public road, whether they're making a living or not. No one sits in the middle of the road on purpose - if you think cyclists do it on purpose then you probably don't cycle, or understand how to interact with cyclists:

Wankers 3 abreast on country roads. Apart from no consideration to others, they have no consideration for their own safety!
I don't wear Teletuby coloured scuba diving gear at weekends, but I do cycle to work on good days.
