I like that and it even got a nod of approval from my fashion adviser. A cycling cap in a similar style would make a good follow up...

Santo Domingo de Silos,

Those with keen eyes will spot Santiago de Compostella in the NW quadrant, this village is on one of the many variants of the Way of St James and the monks at the monastery there had a UK number 1 hit with their Gregorian chants back in the early '90s. It is about 10km from the film set of the good, the bad and the ugly. This year's trip was planned to stay in the village at a free albergue run by the monks for walkers on the pilgrim route. Unfortunately the virus intervened

Very nice tops, when can we order?

A few details to sort out but hopefully weekend(ish).

Stu, is it the same manufacturer, and therefore size, as the previous green n black "bear" jerseys?

Cheers Stu,

My Green n' Black is Owayo and these new ones look to be made by Epic Orange. I just went to compare sizes but my BB jersey is Large and my Epic Orange one is Medium. Not much help to tell you the large one is bigger.....

As Nige says, different manufacturer so sizing may be different. I'll do everything I can to point folk in the right direction when orders open.

Thanks Stu. When you get sizing info, can you please also get arm length info? I've previously avoided LS jerseys because I reckon the sleeves will be too short on me and didn't want to take the risk.

Mrs Polisherman has asked if there's the remotest possibility of a ladeez full sleeve jobbie?
Hips 'n stuff....

Good work Stu.

They look great , I shall be getting one of each.

Nicest design ever. I'll have a long sleeve and a gillet thanks. Super cool.

Mrs Polisherman has asked if there's the remotest possibility of a ladeez full sleeve jobbie?

It's a maybe. We always have the same issue in that not that many women want one and rather sadly, their's always cost more - some in part to the low numbers and some because women's jerseys are usually a higher spec'.

I suppose, it'll all depend on how many people inquire as to whether we do or don't. Ten tends to be the minimum number where it becomes viable.

I’d be interested in a ladies version - I probably don’t need ten though.....

Will the sizes and features for each BBB product be the same as described on the Epic Orange website?

Pockets on short-sleeve MTB jerseys appeal .

The sizing of EO's #sixpacksteve looks interesting: I'd possibly fit a small in their sizes, but am a large in Owayo & Foska sizes .

Looks really good quality kit, BTW.

Pain up the rear I know , but as I don’t get on here very often at the moment, and I’ve total missed this thread could you send me a message when you open the orders

I like them. Quite classy. Potentially interested in ladies version.

Looks a great jersey, may have to have one of each

The good news is, we're nearly ready to unleash ordering on the world (it's quite different to, unleashing order on the world though) and those more curvy will be glad to know that we will have women's jerseys. I did my best sad puppy dog face and brokered a deal meaning you'll be able to order them without the need to jump through any hoops but I'm afraid they will still carry a slight premium .... my puppy dog face can only achieve so much.

The following will be available:

SS classic cycling jersey ... 3 rear pockets, full zip, etc.
LS classic cycling jersey ... 3 rear pockets, full zip, etc.
Ladies fit classic cycling jersey ... 3 rear pockets, full zip, etc.
SS MTB style jersey ... 2 small zipped pockets and a large zipped pocket ont' back.
LS MTB style jersey ... 2 small zipped pockets and a large zipped pocket ont' back.
Gilets ... solid back with rear zipped pocket and two way zip so you can fasten it at the top, leave it open at the bottom and run round with your arms outstretched pretending to be 'Boner-man'.

The restraining order against me strictly prohibits that, fun while it lasted.

I'm genuinely curious - why a double-ended zip? The only scenario I can put forward is the pee-over-bibs one.

Better for venting, open from the bottom zip and it prevents the best turning into a parachute. Better for fast roadies than slow mountain bikers but still works

My understanding is that it's for venting Colin. I'm not sure why you'd want to vent from the bottom rather than the top but the option's there ... as too is doing the cape thing

There we go, Simon knows.
