Are the jerseys still being made by Verge like last year's?

Would the club cut, last year's, be the same as the $50 Classic?

The jerseys are made by Verge again this year. The Club Cut has been renamed Sport Cut for 2008 and is available in the classic (same as last year) or an upgraded fabric/stiching/gripper version called elite. The Freeride jersey is not offered in the classic fabric for 2008, so our choice is the elite fabric with gripper.

This is a version of the chrome graphic which was selected:

Do we need a minimum order of six pieces for each choice? We typically don't get as many women's jerseys so would we all have to agree on Elite, Classic or Freeride? Does the Freeride even come in women's sizing?
I thought it didn't last year.

Good question, the freeride jerseys do not come in womens sizing. I will contact Verge and see what is up with the womens jerseys. but from my present understanding we will need a min of 6 in womens elite or classic sport cuts. There is a min of 6 in each category. Last year there were 7 womens jerseys sold, so I guess the ladies may have to decide collectively whether they want elite or classic.

Personally I would prefer the womens elite jersey. I think the quality and comfort would be worth the extra $$. The fabric is really nice and the flat lock stitching is a great addition (the seams and nylon stitching in my previous Fats jerseys were uncomfortable at times). I tried on the unisex elite jersey figuring maybe it would suffice but it wasn't as comfortable as the womens cut.

I'm sure it'll be a nice jersey. I guess the sponsorship slot availability is nothing to be worried about anymore. I've inquired about this repeatedly, and never heard back. Figured as much. But please, don't be offended.

That was quick! I've read the old posts, thanks. Didn't take your final post as anything concrete either way. I should be better at reading minds, sorry. Smile

When do we have to place our orders in by? Will you be taking checks at the first club meeting? Which jerseys are the women's jerseys and what sizes are they, will the demos be available at the club meeting?

Thanks!

Here is a link for sizing. We would prefer to have our order in before the march meeting and are taking orders now. However we need at least 6 of the womens Elite or Classic jerseys, so as I said before the ladies should collectively decide on which version they want. It is possible that we may have samples at the March meeting, they may not allow us to use the samples twice. (Come to potter bro on Sat). Freeride jerseys do not come in womens sizing. Hope this helps.

Will there be members from the club at Potter Brothers on Saturday that could take membership money? How about orders and checks for jerseys if said membership money can be taken?

fingers crossed....

I dont mean to overwork anybody...
I joined a Fl. club using paypal.
Fats in the Cats boxers Rolling Eyes

hats, license plate frames?
I'll be getting the ball rolling on stickers soon.

The license plate frame might be cool. I looked into it for my housepainting, a quantity run would bring the price under $10 each.
