Fall Clothing Order for Cyclocross Season? Anyone?
Hey y’all. I want to get the ball rolling asap on a fall clothing order for the upcoming cross season. Turnaround is about 6 weeks if we order soon. On the last batch of clothing, I ordered a prototype long sleeve skinsuit, and it is pretty sharp (I will post photos later). Any interest? If we could drum up the interest to order a minimum of 6 pieces, we can get them for about $125 a piece, which is a pretty darn good price for a custom long sleeve skinsuit. Any takers?
Limited Quantities of Team Clothing
We have a few leftover items in the X-Men Team Store. A few windvests in size Medium and Large, a long sleeve jersey or two, and a whole bunch of socks. Head on over and check it out.
Pre-order Vests and Long Sleeve Jerseys
Many club members and cycling fashionistas have asked if we were going to put together a cold weather clothing order. We have negotiated some great prices on Vests and Long Sleeve jerseys. Head on over to the online store, place a pre-order for vests and/or long sleeves, and we will do a small order. Delivery is looking like early to mid-December, which means you’ll have stuff for the tail end of cyclocross season (maybe), nordic ski season, and spring 2010. Prices are cheap for custom clothing in small quantities, so once again, Squadra is hooking us up.
Long sleeve jerseys and vests available for pre-order in the store now.
The Week’s News: Clothing and Cyclocross Practice
We’re trying to get an idea of who is interested in ordering some custom X-Men cold weather clothing? We have again been given super low pricing for long sleeve jerseys, jackets, and vests. Who’s in? I will post thumbnail images of the designs in our X-Men Online Store, and we will take pre-orders once the images are up.
Cyclocross, or PsychoCross, practice races are being held in various locations around Park City. Check out the schedule for the next few weeks here: Park City Psycho-Cross Blog.
Team Kits In Stock At The X-Men Store
We have a new online store set up, and currently have team kits including short sleeve jerseys and bibshorts available in size Small and Medium. Visit the X-Men Online Store to order in-stock items. All items are custom-made by Squadra Team Apparel.
We will also be ordering a limited number of long sleeve jerseys, wind vests, and thermal tights. Stay tuned for pricing and pre-ordering info.
The New Blue & Brown Kits Are Here
Well, not actually here in Utah, but shipping from Squadra on 9/4. So we should have them mid-next week. Thanks to everyone for being patient. We will be the first team in the U.S. to be wearing new patterns for Squadra’s ONZA line. We also have been extended a bro deal to put together a cold weather clothing order with low minimums. So after we get the goods, I’ll be hitting everyone up to see if there is any interest in long sleeve jerseys and vests. Stay tuned.
Thanks to Greg Demgen, aka Dough for modeling.
Clothing Update from Squadra
After trading a few emails back and forth with Dough (Greg Demgen, Sales and Marketing Chief at Squadra), it looks like our new clothing will be ready to ship from Squadra in Carlsbad, California, to X-Men HQ in Park City, Utah. Thanks to all the club members who placed their orders promptly and have waited patiently. We got a late start this year with the new kit, but I am feeling good about getting the club back on track and this is just the start. I will post again when the goods arrive. Thanks!
New Bibshort Design Finalized
We are pleased to unveil our 2009 bibshort design which completes the new team kit. Don (the design guy at Squadra) was working on a new design for us based on a yet-to-be-released pattern that incorporates sublimated side panels, back panel and lower leg wrap panels, all in one piece of fabric. We will be the first team in the U.S. that will get this new cut, as Squadra won’t be introducing it into their line until 2010. Take a look and see how it jives with the jersey design. We tried in the past to carry the stripes all the way down, but it never looked quite right because of the different fabric panels. Visit the Clothing Page to Pre-Order your bibshorts now, as we will only do one order for bibs this year. We will offer both men’s and women’s. The women’s have a special women-specific chamois pad and a shorter length cut. Please note, the images make it look like these are not bibshorts, but this is just for design purposes to show off the printed area. We are definitely ordering bibs, and only bibs.
