Jersey / gilet orders LAST CHANCE

Okay, after some delay, jersey and gilet orders are now open. As you can see from the image below, we've removed the 'sponsor' logos from the rear pockets (after 2 print runs, I think everyone has had their twenty quids worth) but otherwise the design remains the same ... a classic, almost iconic garment, I think you'll agree.

Jerseys: Available in both short and long sleeve. Both feature 3 rear pockets and a full length concealed zip - ideal for showing your moobs off.

Gilet: Same design, although no sleeves means you lose cuddly bear as featured on the top of the sleeve on the jerseys. A small single (zipped) security pocket on the rear. Again, full length concealed zip.

Sizing: Jerseys are a road / XC cut so are designed to be snug. Even in the correct size, they'll be fairly tight fitting. If you'd rather not have the worlds gaze devouring every lump and bump, I'd suggest going up one size from your usual T shirt size. They'll still fit but offer a little more room for expansion. Gilets are a little more generous as they're designed to go over something else, however I'd still consider going up one size from usual. There's a sizing guide on the ordering page.

Prices: Sadly, the state of the pound has meant a price increase since the last order. There's nothing I can do about it, except say with all sincerity - if you think they're too expensive, don't buy one. Prices are delivered to your door.
SS Jersey £43.50 LS Jersey £46.70 Gilet £47.50

Names: You can have your name (or whatever) added to the back of the jersey / gilet if you wish. There's no additional charge for this but please double check that you've written EXACTLY what you want on the order. I won't take any resonsibility for poor spelling or predictive text mishaps :wink:

Women: Both jerseys and gilets are described as unisex but some of the curvier members disagree, however, there's no female specific cut available in this jersey style. Last time we were able to get a batch of female specific jerseys made but - they are a different spec' which combined with low numbers made them considerably more expensive than the standard issue. If you really do want a female specific jersey, send me an email - if there's 10 or more of you, I'll get a price. There are no female specific gilets.

Lead time: At present, it's about 5-6 weeks from order date. If orders remain open for a fortnight, that obviously means 7 - 8 weeks before delivery.

Order yours here http://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/jerseys/ any questions email me and I'll do my best.

It definitely caught the eye of the boss as he walked past.

Given the finish I think they've been waxed.

Stu, how long before you get your cat-herding qualification, you do seem to be doing a lot of it :wink:

I'd like to state that I was in no way influenced by you're abysmal 70's advertising campaign. Honest injin..... :oops:

But I've ordered nonetheless....

Let's just hope they bloody fit.

funny story, our canoe club in unit did a series of thongs for "the ladies" with our logo on it and they sold very well. Wife still has two pairs.

As much as I like the idea of thongs, I know that I just wouldn't be able to resist making them furry.

Not wanting to appear dim, but how do I know what size my old jersey is? Do the M's inside the collar mean medium? I'm sure they do but having spent ages looking for a right inov8 sock the orher day as I could only find ones with L on I later realised the L was large whereas on my old ones it was left :oops:

Yes, M probably means medium. There's a size guide on the order page under the drop-down and it says a M is 35.4" up to 38.6". Measure the circumference of your chest, does it fall within that range?
