That windvest looks nice

They have two versions, purely a summer windvest and this one which is fleecey and perfect for spring autumn. I've been wearing it nonstop for the past few weeks with a long sleeve jersey

wading through the thread I haven’t seen much in the way of mountain bike jerseys and shorts (though I skimmed so I may have missed something)….any suggestions?

I see a lot of that ripoff Fox clothing that isn’t at all convincing (they add stuff like “HTTP” to the logos making it obvious they’re knockoffs) but I’m looking for something decent quality that is either legit looking like the various “Fasthouse” jerseys I’ve seen on Ali, or stuff that uses its own/no branding.

The review photos for the bibs show a chamois identical to whats on my low end Funkier shorts. Good for my short mtb rides, not so much for longer rides.
Is that the same as what you got?

These are the ones I tried! The red one, and love them.

It does look the same however it feels really plush and comfy. Better than the ones that come with the rion bibshorts for example.

[TidyDinosaur]

It depends on your butt I think... I started with the cheaper bulkier red chamois like you can find in the cheaper rion bibs. But the front of the bibs was too high, so I ordered other bibs with the thinner and more expensive chamois.
I had my mom adjust the front of the cheap bibs and switched to them after the chamois of the more expensive bib began to become loose.

Now I really like the cheaper ones better. I wear them on 5+ hour ride and no saddle pain...

But DO NOT buy those cheap multicolored chamois. Those are crap!

Those multicoloured things are a serious insult to ones derrière. Interestingly i run both my bikes with one those aliexpress carbon saddles with minimal padding, i find they are at one with my ass also.

Yeah if you search mtb shorts or mtb jersey you get mostly knockoff stuff. There seems to be one generic pair of shorts sold under different names.
The Rockbros mtb shorts look halfway decent, but no personal experience with them. The fast house jerseys look good. Might take a shot at one in the near future.

I ordered a couple of mountain bike jerseys from "loose ride store" a couple of months ago.  They fit me well and have been running strong so far this spring.  Their size chart was pretty accurate for me.  The weather hasn't been really hot yet, so I don't have a good gauge on how well the polyester knit will breath, but based on my rides so far in 70-80F weather they should be no worse than some of my other brand name jerseys.

I bought this tie-dye print jersey...because why not:

I liked the jersey so much I just ordered a couple more from the same store.  Tracking says they should arrive here within the week, so fingers crossed they fit me as well as the other jerseys do:

I also like the look of these, but haven't tried them yet:

Another option, I read on a forum a while back where someone raved about 3/4 sleeve baseball jerseys they ride in.  I've never tried them, but I may order a shirt at some point:

For mountain bike shorts, some of my riding buddies use the Arsuxeo branded shorts and have no complaints.  I've never tried them mostly because I don't like stretch elastic waist bands, just personal preference:

If you're interested in more of a brand name short, I just picked up some Backcountry "Second Quality" shorts for not much more than the generic shorts on AliExpress.  They've been great so far, I can't even tell why they're second quality.  I did order the wrong size originally though. I'm a 33 waist, and I thought their sizing chart showed that to be a medium size.  Nope, had to exchange them for a large size.  I have long legs and the shorts hit the center of my knee:

They have 10-inch inseam length bike shorts as well, if that's your preference:

I just got a pair of those off of Amazon. I paid a few dollar more but got faster shipping. They seem pretty well made and they are comfortable. The only drawback is the pockets. They have two zipper pockets on each side, but one is in front of the other so you can't use both for thick things. The one on the right is too small for my phone, but I can just barely get it in on the left. I normally wear size 34 waist pants and the XL shorts fit well.

I ordered this windvest and it arrived a couple of days ago. Did my first ride with it today and it is really nice. A little bit warm with 2 extra layers under it for the 13 °C we have here but it was OK. I took a S for my 172cm and 64 kg and it is a tight fit but I like it that way and I knew when I ordered it would be this way since the measurements are on the product page.

2 layers plus a windvest for 13°? Can't imagine what you would wear below 0
