Minimalist Graphic

Background: Navy base – still classic.

Stripes: None.

Motif: Single stylised chainring or bike silhouette woven near tip.

Detail: Tone-on-tone or subtle metallic thread for the graphic (e.g. navy-on-navy, gold-on-navy).

✅ Modern, elegant. Works in casual or formal settings.

A nod to cycling, but not literal or old-fashioned.

Subtle micropattern

Background: Solid navy, black, or deep green.

No stripes.

Motif: Small repeating icons woven into the fabric: minimalist bikes, chainrings, or wheels.

Detail: Pattern in darker or lighter navy, or even silver/grey.

✅ Modern texture, interest up close, not loud.

Evokes club membership subtly, rather than screaming "CREST"

Modern stripe + Symbol

Background: Classic navy

Stripes: Thin diagonal stripe (single or double) in a refreshed colour—e.g. acid yellow, silver, or reflective grey.

Motif: Small stylised bike graphic woven at intervals on the stripe or off-stripe.

Optional: Updated typography for “The Pedal Club” if included.

✅ Cycling race jersey vibe.

Feels more athletic and contemporary.

Colour Accent Tip

Background: Navy

Tip: (inside or outside) in bright contrast colour (yellow, or even a modern neon/reflective accent).

Optional: Very small “Pedal Club” wheel/bike motif at the tip.

✅ Very modern tailoring-style idea.

Nice detail when worn but understated.

Rear

Racing stripe inspired

Background: Classic navy

Stripes: Wide single stripe offset to one side (like classic cycling jerseys).

Stripe in club yellow (or even modernised to fluo yellow / reflective silver).

Small minimalist wheel/bike logo woven at the stripe end.

✅ Evokes real cycling heritage jerseys, but is contemporary.

Racing stripe inspired

Background: Classic navy

Concept: Navy tie with a single matte silver stripe running diagonally. A tiny stylised crankset woven in near the blade tip.

Navy tie with no stripes, just a single small reflective-yellow stylised bike icon near the bottom.

✅ Simpler graphics, cleaner lines.

✅ References today’s cycling aesthetics: jerseys, kit design, modern bikes.

✅ Avoids big old-school military-style crests.

✅ Flexible to wear with jackets, shirts, even more casual blazers.

Background: Classic navy.

Weave: Fine twill or plain—lets the stripes and icon stand out.

Inspired by a pro cycling jersey’s bold stripe, but adapted for a tie.

Clean, modern, unmistakably cycling-influenced without looking like old-school regimental or school ties.

The overall look is clean and striking:

Navy grounds it as a classic tie.

The single yellow stripe nods to club colours.

Accent line adds depth and breaks the old regimental style.

The small icon near the tip is the only club mark visible when worn

Why this works

✔ Club yellow stripe = heritage, instantly recognisable

✔ Single stripe = racing vibe, modern

✔ Accent line = design detail, breaks military look

✔ No big crest = fresh, minimal

✔ Works with navy/grey/charcoal jacket.
