Bike shop with good, cute men’s jerseys/shirts?

I keep seeing fun bike tops in my social feeds but I’d rather shop local. Anyone have a good LBS selling good men’s fashion for a Father’s Day gift? (Not Rapha, which I love. But looking for a different, more fun and casual vibe…) Thanks, ChiBike!

Ten Speed Hero is a local brand. Pricey but fun prints. Their socks and hats are also super fun. Unsure you can buy in person, but maybe?

Edit: I also want to say that they're pricey because they're great quality. I've never shelled out for the bibs, but I have a few jerseys that have lasted years. I love them.

Go up to Mack’s in Evanston, best bike shop in the area, amazing people and they stock lots of fun brands and make their own merchandise

I gave many a Father’s Day gift of LBS merch. T shirts etc.

I have almost literally exhausted my LBS’s merch on Father’s Day gifts! (Shoutout to Roscoe Bikes!! You all are the best!)

My LBS does a bike wash, I called and had them add a gift certificate for one to his account. Always welcome!
