Amazing, although option 2 would only work on a skin suit...

Just wearing it would allow you to squat 200kg with ease.


I would go for one of the shirts, I dont mind a bit of wolf but lets not over do it. I don't do ironic fashion

Very similar vein but with different colour and different text. I guess if enough people wanted one you could do a few colours so you can have one to match the . I tried to find a wolf but couldn't find anything suitable. Some sort of silhouette for a classier look?  :shrug:
If someone can find a suitable wolf could try it on the sleeve or the back?
This is all a moot point if only 3 people want one as I imagine the price of such a small run would be prohibitive!

A less fitted Mtb top, preferably to accommodate body armour would be rather good.

No wolf no sale.
I'm willing to fund this btw as I'm sure is fatdoc despite his euphemistic request for a top that Will accommodate (cough) body armour.

Can we avoid too much black? I know its slimming and everything, but riding during an Australian summer dressed all in black is unpleasant. Besides, how is everyone going to appreciate the glory of the "crotch wolf" in black?

Where's the start line? They say: North East, South West, North West, North East again, North West again. Contradictory.

Wolf-free, but I was thinking something like this:


(with fatdoc's [wad][punter] t-shirt suggestion)

Based on the owayo pricing, a five person run would come in at £47. This seems a bit much. A 10 piece run would be £36 which is more realistic. Are there only 5 people interested or can we scrape up 5 more from somewhere?

the [wad][punter] designs looks great; nice and clean but still UKB...

I'd take one or two if they could be posted to Aus

I'm keen, although I think they'd look even better if they had a Climbing Works logo on each sleeve - I'm sure we'd chip in for the printing costs then too.......as long as that curmugeonly old bastard Alderson is in agreement. I'm not sure that he'd want one though - we've yet to find any clothes that achieve a skin-tight fit on Graeme....!

Like the design don't suppose there is a chance of a normal t-shirt/hoody going to be printed in it for the non cyclists?

I'd get one for when I'm out on the Mountain Bike.

On secong thoughts, not if it's got a Climbing Works logo on it......, unless it's really cheap! ;)

Before we get carried away, has anyone asked shark/thesiger if they're cool with this? I can't see why they wouldn't be, but it's always nice to ask.

For custom printing, from the jerseys I've seen, owayo do nice stuff (but are a bit pricey), Inverse also do good jerseys (I have a few Ariegeoise freebies that i commute in) and seem to have a UK agent : http://www.cycleinstyle.org/news.html. They also do downhill/freeride jerseys. Another forum I lurk around in just did an order :http://forum.vtt34.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=4921

Anyone got any contacts? Any interest in shorts, long sleeves, sleeveless version, merkins, white versions, gilets??
