Joining a polo & khaki workwear environment. How do I fake a personal style?
American bike riders like to go as lightweight as possible because we’re likely to have to dodge SUVs several times per ride. A full chain enclosure like that would definitely make things more pants-safe, though; it’s good to know that will be an option.

Joining a polo & khaki workwear environment. How do I fake a personal style?
And what type of blazer would go best with cargos? Is there a cloth or pattern casual enough? Or is that a chore for a chore jacket?

Joining a polo & khaki workwear environment. How do I fake a personal style?
I rode my bike on a paper route as a kid, then to college later; even with a chainguard my pants would always suffer. I could partially ameliorate that by stuffing my right pant leg into my sock, but are there any better engineered versions of this precaution? Lightweight cycling gaiters? Is there any way to wear spats without looking like I’m cosplaying as a 1920’s gangster?

Joining a polo & khaki workwear environment. How do I fake a personal style?
Long ago I commuted to work on a bicycle, in Florida. Luckily, there was a locker room at work, so I brought my clothes in a folding garment bag.
I’m hoping to do a less comprehensive clothing change in Germany; wearing sneakers and switching to brown derbies (I’m assuming that means the shoe, not the hat) at the office sounds good.

Joining a polo & khaki workwear environment. How do I fake a personal style?
I need to get a good chainguard to keep from greasing and ripping the hems, but I’m planning on an e-bike, plus it’s Germany, so I shouldn’t be sweating too badly.
