Does anyone have a recommendation for a sporty road cycling jersey with a loose fit?

Most of the jerseys available tend to have a tighter fit.

By “comfortable fit,” I mean jerseys that still fit a little loosely on the body even when the correct size is chosen.

I’m 1.8 m tall and weigh 77 kg, so I usually wear EU size L.
With jerseys from Chinese suppliers, I have to choose size XL, which even when the length is right are very tight across the chest and upper arms.
If I go with size XXL, the jerseys are too long.

A sporty jersey with a slightly looser fit is the one linked here from the Austrian company Löffler:

Are there any jackets/long sleeve jerseys with sleeve lengths that work for taller people? I'm around 195cm/90kg for reference. Long inseam winter bib recomendations would also be appreciated.

Spexcel works great: I received this one in size L (192cm,80kg) and it works great. With 10kg extra I would recommend one size up. https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005012047015961.html
In general I'm pleased with their long sleeve jerseys and jackets as being a tall person with long arms/legs

Spexcel’s longsleeves are goated. I have way too many of them :D

There's a few helmet threads on here. P2R and Sunrimoon should be good, I'd trust them. P2R A20 is tested by Virginia Tech as very safe: "The P2R A20 MIPS earned a 5 star rating. Its STAR value score of 8.14 ranked #10 of 308 helmets tested."

Unless I am seeing something wrong, both of those brands seem rather expensive. I'd rather get a decathlon helmet at that price point.

The P2R 20 is the chepeast helmet by far on this list and non of the Decathlon/Van Rysel helmet was crash tested by one of the independent companies.
