A Fun Option to Fitted Lycra
Sometimes you just don’t want a fitted jersey. Or you’re looking for an alternative to a t-shirt to wear for a post-ride beer with the group. Party Shirt International offers just that: a comfortable fit, a little stretch, and fun prints.
I had never heard of this brand until their rep reached out to see if I’d try one of their Stretch-Tech Party Shirts. A quick perusal of the website made me smile. I could see wearing the Pigeons Gone Wild, aka flamingo print, on a gravel ride or to an after-party.
This short-sleeve shirt is more sophisticated than a T-shirt, thanks to its collar and button front. Best of all, even if you wad it up and toss it in your gear bag, it always looks perfectly pressed. When it’s time to launder, wash it at any water temperature and toss it in the dryer. No ironing needed, it comes out looking great time after time.
On the Bike
Gravel rides always have a different vibe from road rides. They’re a mix of cardio and fun. With 4-way stretch fabric, these Stretch-Tech shirts are the perfect uniform for your next dusty ride.
Off the Bike
I’ve worn the flamingo shirt to host a recent cousin’s party. Everyone loved the print, and I got a vibe they were jealous. It has made other appearances at the local farmer’s market and at a community concert. It makes people smile and start a conversation.
Other Styles to Pick From
Party Shirt International offers other styles to choose from, including pullover jerseys (ideal for MTB), sun hoodies, cabana shirts, and kids’ shirts.
Bottom Line
Whether you are looking for something different to wear on a coffee ride, want a party vibe on a gravel ride, or want to relax with a post-ride beer, Party Shirt International has the shirt for you. Available in XS-3XL in unisex or women’s cuts, choose from a variety of fun prints to change up your cycling uniform.
