It's the whole shape really - men's shirts are straight up and down, women's are cut for boobs and hips.

Mrs Miggins,

Owayo do a brilliant sample service, they'll send you a couple of sizes to try, no obligation, just post 'em back when you're done. I've asked for a couple so Mrs J can decide which size suits, then she'll order in the next run (If there is one)

[MrsMiggins]

Thanks

The problem ended up being a more practical one - Owayo expect a minimum batch size of 5 to order a 'deviation' when you're placing a group buy. PH being a testosterone-fuelled kind of place meant it wasn't possible to hit that number for women's jerseys so ordering them involved some negotiation with the vendor, which I'm happy to say appears to have been successful!

Paid and emailed, cheers for this Gruffy

It was you lot ordering in such quantities that gave me some bargaining power. I ordered one for my fiancée too and that proved to be enough for them to say yes to two womens jerseys, despite a bit of grumbling.

Email received, paid and replied. Could someone update the wiki for me pretty please?

[tobinen]

Paid sir! Thanks Gruffy you legend

[assadahmed]

All paid up and email sent!

[Gruffy]

Thank you all for turning around the payments so quickly. I think we're already only 10 away from a full set.

On a side note, as I emailed all of you via your profile pages it occurred to me what great taste in cars Pedal Powered PHers have. Definitely the classy corner of PH

I have a worn once, washed gently P8 that was a surprise how generous. But then I have lost weight since last year when I bought the XL previous generations.
I'd be up for that swap if you fancy?

I'm guessing that I'd be close enough on P8 for a winter and a 7 for the summer - layering up and all?

I updated the wiki at the same time as I posted this - and I'm not in it anymore. I didn't check back until now and as a result I see that the order is closed.
What happened and will there be any chance an '8' winter jersey will drop out at short notice?



in fact, being the retentive I am;

NEW LIST FOR WINTER 2014

The order is being placed with the manufacturer on Monday 29th September and you can expect to receive your jersey around four weeks later.

Following on from this lengthy thread and the agreement from PH Towers that an order can go ahead, it is time for a list!
Please add yourself in at the bottom.

Sizing chart here. PHers' real-world sizing comments here.

It has been specced as a proper winter jersey:

Pro-cut style jersey
Roubaix-style winter fabric (microfleece backed)
Long sleeves
Reflective elements
Full zip

The run will go ahead if we order 20 or more. Prices are £65 delivered but drop to £60 delivered if we order 35 or more. A mini pocket adds £2.77 to the cost of each jersey, irrespective of the order size.

I've had this myself, where I updated the wiki and then looked afterwards to see my update missing.

I've asked the manufacturer if we can sneak a few more jerseys in. I'm cautiously optimistic but I'll let you know once I get an answer.

Thanks Gruffy! I'm sure it's more than easy to have multiple updates clash, or just simple finger-trouble with a shared document, I just assumed that I was so late 'in' that it would be one of the last entries in any-case.

[Gruffy]

I may be wrong but I think it's impossible to be updating the wiki while somebody else is. The system won't let you. I blame the hamsters.

Me too. I'm sanguine about it though, the Mrs had other ideas for the £60-odd!

[m444ttb]

Mine definitely posted then was gone the next day. Thankfully I checked it and put myself back on the list.

Gruffy, if that's a goer could we slip in one ladies procut S8 summer jersey do you think? Just got the samples from Owayo so we're sure of sizing now.

[Gruffy]

I think I'll move the ordering offline for the next one then.

Jorrocks, unfortunately one condition of ordering womens jerseys under the minimums was that both jerseys had to be the same product type, which was the winter jersey. I can check with the supplier if they're able to sneak an extra winter one in but I can already be sure they won't accommodate a single womens summer jersey. Sorry.
