Default Cycling Jerseys for larger men

Hi,

I started cycling following a knee injury and absolutely love it.

I am 210 lbs, and have been weight training for a long time.

I visited a local store to purchase a cycling jersey and, unfortunately, couldn't fit in anything.

I did find something in the Louis Garneau collection, identified as relax fit, but these don't have all of the nice team sponsor logos....

Could anybody recommend a particular company or site where I could find other of these Relax fit type of jerseys ?

Thanks !

I'm 5' 10 amd about 220. Yes, I still have a bunch of weight to lose around the midsection. The Xtra large Garneau Jerseys fit for length and chest OK, and are a little tight around the midsection of course. But that made me think about the bigger guys, especially the taller ones. IF the extra large fits me, the taller guys must have a hard time getting something to fit in length without being baggy also.

try www.bikejerseys.com

They generally have a good selection in larger sizes.

Performancebike.com also sells bigger jerseys. I'm 6'1", 250lbs, 51" chest and their 3XL is a "relaxed" fit for me, long enough and roomy enough to hide the extra "contours". Arms are a bit snug, but not uncomfortable. Snug jerseys just aren't pretty on larger riders like myself.

I'm not positive, but I don't think the performancebike.com house brand clothing has team logos either. But they might have something on their website...
