I have spousal endorsement on these!

And mine too! But then I have grey pants....

& ….. not bibs…. this is supposed to be my cold weather kit

Well that’s just an easy rejection. That jacket with the USA bibs would be ok.

I have a pair of gray pants too, but not bibs.

Oslo Airport never got the memo about the yellow part. They went all grey.
You know, because it’s so blindingly bright and sunny all the time in Oslo.

Solution- Fischer could do a display of their yellow bases outside. Pilots would have to arrive by tunnel so they weren’t snow blinded and unable to fly.

For whatever reason, this post made me think of Bermuda roofs.

I think Astana and Mercatone Uno have subliminally* affected your colour sense


*cycling team values of 'subliminally' not being particularly subliminal at all.

Dunno about that. I still think celeste and yellow are only good looking together because of the legendary status of the rider of that Bianchi. It is very difficult for me to combine celeste with another colour except for white and black. All the other combinations sorta cheapen the celeste.

Perhaps purple, but then the celeste should only be an accent.

None of this is a strong argument against my contention

oh right, I forgot about the Ullrich Bianchi team

There is a possibility over in indigo.


Real colour cognoscenti like @LiquidFeet are going to be matching colour and value to the dark/shadow areas, and I suspect my (our?) being used to sporty palettes has probably completely destroyed aptitude for that level of seeing colour.

 

[Uncle-A]

Since people are talking about using team colors, why not look at the Miami Dolphins colors. They are similar to the jacket and some of the parts that have been highlighted.

 

[Tony Storaro]

Yes. This.

 

[LiquidFeet]

I vote for some version of yellow.

Did you hear that @cantunamunch ?Did you hear that? The lady has spoken.

Who are then the discerning cognoscenti with an eye to the fine and beautiful stuff in life? We are!

And if we proceed with discussing matching helmets, just take a minute and marvel at the magnificence of this piece of art:

I love you POC! I love you so much that I will gladly give you 250 of my precious euros to own this.
This is the colour I have been looking for ever since the untimely demise of my beloved Smith Quantum Hornet yellow last season.

You are like ... the Nichiren of yellow.

I wouldn’t have chosen a bright yellow helmet but Pret yellow helmets were on sale last pre-season. They were Pret’s cheapest version without even a magnetic chin strip, just the traditional clip. And now it’s my favorite helmet. You just have to be careful with paired colors. Or not…

Nah, that guy was totally wrong. The Lotus sutra cannot be the highest truth by definition. Simply because it was never spoken by The Buddha himself.
But I digress.

Yellow is great-my all time favourite football team sports yellow and black, it is a colour that makes you feel good. And very few combinations are on the same level of beauty in my eyes as yellow and purple. And purple is my absolutely favourite colour. Might have been a Roman senator in previous life who knows. Or simply ate too much Milka chocolate.
