Cycling Jerseys

In_tuition

Hope someone here can aid me a little.

I'm looking for 30 decent enough cycling jerseys with a lettering and a design displayed on them. Can anyone recommend any good sites in the UK or Ireland or beyond.

Cheers

I think this is where they sourced the boards jerseys. Maybe one of the people who actually dealt with them might comment, but there's a couple of batches came from them so they can't be too bad.

Our current club gear is from the supplier above - we can strongly recommend them.

We've also bought from Owayo and they're well worth a look too:

And if you don't have enough choice you can also consider custom Giordana kit www.myteamgiordana.co.uk

www.spin11.com Irish company.

Do alot of Irish clubs. Bray Wheelers, Sorrento etc etc. Very good quality.

...actually boards should get their kit from here, better made than the current stuff.

A lot of companies host in the US, hosting tends to be cheap there. I can assure you they are perfectly reputable. Their jersey quality is in my opinion very good, you just need to be careful with sizing, it can be a bit strange.

Regarding the new site I think they are trying to market to the UK/Ireland in particular.

I think Carvalho are a fair bit cheaper than other companies; personally I think their stuff is as good as Spin 11's. Certainly the jerseys. Maybe excepting the shorts which are not great. I like the Boards jacket myself, it has a fair bit of waterproof compared to my club jacket which is substantially warmer and not waterproof at all. Others prefer the latter. It was certainly a hell of a lot more expensive though.

Have to say I didn't find the quality good at all . Our club used spin 11 and the material was not up to scratch . Any club mate I spoke to said the same thing that is why the club didn't get there clothing this season. Just my opinion

Actually I find it the other way around. I prefer the Carvalho shorts to the Spin ones, but would take a Spin jersey over a Carvalho one, because they fit much better.

I've got jerseys made up by Owayo 3 times and found them very good. Unlimited options in terms of adding logos etc and their templates are pretty cool if you take a bit of time messing about with colour schemes and whatnot.

Having said that I don't have any experience of other companies mentioned so can't comment on how they stack up.

Haha well there you go it is a bit personal on the fit... to be honest neither are as good as my "good shorts" but I raced all year in the club ones which was generally a 100km ride out-race-back each time and they were grand. The Boards ones not so keen. But then racing takes your mind off things.

got a batch of club kit done earlier this year with endura.

http://www.endura.co.uk/Dept.aspx?dept_id=134

had previously used fernando carvalho - there is no comparison in quality and fit; endura are far superior

costs were around the same

would highly recommend endura

pretty sure imbrc used them aswell

Hi There try velokit at www.velokitclothing.com

Andras out of Thinkbike Rathmines is your direct contact give him a shout

In_tuition

Really appreciate everyones comments and thanks a lot.

Love the option with owayo on their site whereby you can design your own kit so I'm going to contact them and see how it goes. Thanks again folks

Have a reasonable quote of €830 for 20 jerseys from owayo, including shipping fee..

but on the quote it also had this,[SIZE=+0] "We also offer 5% for sleeve sponsorship or 10% for front or back"[/SIZE] excuse my stupidity but what exactly are they referring to?

Vélo

Maybe it's a 5% or 10% discount for having their own name advertised on the gear.

Swords use Santini. It's good stuff. I've bought a load of their generic kit as a result and I like it.
