Pool jerseys are bad, but also not good

Big difference is that cycling outfit is functional, pool jersey's simply look like shit for no reason. Pro's wearing them is one thing but when i see the league dweebs all in matching lycra i just have to laugh.

Cycling kit is kind of supposed to be loud. Especially for roadies where they need to be seen for safety reasons. Also bright colors are fun...
This is one of my favorite riding jerseys, but I'd never wear anything pool related like this.
I even feel weird wearing my Predator t-shirts to the pool hall...

I was out at the Westgate in Las Vegas for the APA Championships. Not only were the pool jerseys (or whatever you call them) rampant, but the vendors were selling them constantly.
Here's an interesting observation, the two guys that played for the top tier final in 9 ball didn't wear any special pool jerseys, and the team that won the master's team had on golf shirts, all different, but with their ream name embroidered on it, so not really pool jerseys. In 8 ball, neither of the top tier finalists wore jerseys, nor did either of the next level down finalists.
Just about every other team had them though, and I noticed a lot of people had different ones on every day, so they had a few at least. I get that for the team events, it kinda makes sense there.
All that said, it seemed that the people that played at the highest levels were wearing mostly golf polos of one type or another, with Under Armor being the most often seen.
