Go For it Timmy!!!!! Yeah, SLIPSTREAM!!!

Aunt Joyce FAN CLUB

I remember the old jersey was available in a women’s sizing. Are you going to have that again for this one?

(Actually, any chance of the old jersey design being sold too? It was pretty awesome.)

Any chance of Millar’s GB champ jersey being in the product line-up at some point? And a European distributor…?

Hello Kelly and Ewoud,

Some answers on cycling apparel as we work out the details:
1. An international distributor is in the works and we’ll post any updates as soon as we have them.
2. There are no more 2007 kits, very sorry.
3. We’re checking on the possibility of women’s sizes and replicas of the different national champions jerseys.

Hope that helps. Please stay tuned!

Hello,

Any chance on selling the Long Sleeve and/or Vest versions of the new Slipstream kit?

Thanks

Any chance of the 2008 being available in XL ? More flying Argyle !

I’ve seen bib shorts and arm warmers advertised for pre-sale through various websites. When will these be available?

Kelly – Good news! Pearl will be carrying Slipstream/Chipotle shorts and jerseys in women’s sizes. They won’t be available until April 30/early May – but stay tuned. And it looks like there will be some additional fun argyle jersey designs to choose from.

Check this site for international orders: http://www.bobshop.de/en/shop/slipstream-2008/

Are any of the proceeds going to the team, like the last outfits?

Thanks,
TT

Any chance other blue & orange argyle schwag will be coming in the pipeline? T-shirts, caps, etc?

Ken – Other Argyle goodies – caps, tees, etc – should be available for purchase by May 1. Stay tuned…

Painter’s caps fellas; painter’s caps.

There’s more cool Slipstream gear at Felt.

Argyle cycling socks… BRILLIANT!!!

Hi All,

all the Benelux cyclist who are interested in the Slipstream kit can give me an e-mail. I’ll pass you tru to the nearest local dealer.

Thanks Woody and Bart. Bart, your email is not visible but presumably this URL (click my name) is what we’re looking for, right? Nat champs jerseys coming too?

Any idea when large Jersey’s will be back in stock?

I second Ted–where can we find the Euro-style cycling caps?

I would gladly wear the argyle, but I need one to fit me. Can u help? The largest I see is sized medium. The Commerce Bank Classic is in 5 weeks. Can u get me one in an xl or 2x. Doesn’t have to be an actual jersey. Can be a jacket, regular shirt etc. Get r done.

Hey Papa Meatball,

I have seen larger sizes (XL, XXL) available at World Cycling Productions. Can’t promise they have what you need in stock, but it’s worth checking.

How can i order one if I live in Canada?

I’d love to see the national champ kits. Millar’s and Backstedt’s are exceptionally beautiful.

Michae – There is a Canadian Pearl Izumi rep listed on the international distributors page.

Max – Unfortunately, there will not be replicas of the national championship kits. It is too difficult to meet minimum production runs to be able to offer competitive pricing on what is a very specific product for a much smaller audience.

Can’t wait to see some more argyle gear released. Woody I’m going to hold you to it that new stuff will be out by the end of this week…

Caps guys… what about those caps?

Just to put some weight behind the idea, I too would love to see the national champs jersey produced as a replica– Julian’s New Zealand stealth black argyle-bad-arse version to be sure! Allez le noir!

How about some women’s Slipstream kit?

Will there be any kids/youth sizes as both my boys have said they want jerseys to wear while watching the TDF on tv and to ride the local mtb trails in.

For the National Champ items, what would
non-competitive pricing be… if competitive pricing couldn’t be arranged?

I got mine today…so awesome!!! The burrito in the back product is so eye catching!

cool cant wait to get argyled up,my felt and I are well up to fly the slipstream flag!

How do I purchase tthe gear in Australia, it mentions Europe and America only. Used to go to the same school as david millar in HK ( a few years above) and have followed his career throughout the years. Would like some kit to show more support to the team and what they’re doing.

Cheers

Yeah, be great if you made Uk (and NZ and Sweden) champ jersey and shorts available – by the time the Tour comes round? A lot of other champions jerseys are available and is gd way to support individual riders.

When are we going to see some new gear? I thought new stuff was gonna be out two weeks ago?

How about a wind vest? It seemed as though there was more to choose from last season.

I would also like to be able to get hold of the NZ champ jersey… Julian Dean & the ‘clean team’ idea are both popular down here in NZ. Thanks

Add another vote for the national champs’ jerseys… I’d love to buy a NZ one. Unfortunately you can’t even buy a 2007 anywhere… all sold out… so there’s definitely a market.

Any updates on when the caps / larger jersey sizes will be back in stock?
Thanks,
AO

Any info on the shorts delay? PI website still says 5/28/08 (past) and Felt won’t ship anything until after 6/9/08. I love the jersey, want the bibs to complete the kit.

Will x-large gloves be available again and what about the cycling caps? ….I love my jersey! thanks

Any chance you’ll be selling the argyle knee and leg warmers??

or how about a wind and/or thermal vest??

Thanks

Is there any chance Giro might make a replica Ionos helmet available?

Any idea when Large kits will be back in stock?

I am on the same page with Lionel.. Will there be a replica helmet made by Giro?

where can i buy a tie?

Still waiting for Men’s L jerseys and Women’s stuff to be stocked/restocked :(

We need argyle! (any updates on replenishment of goods???)

p.s. Go Magnus!

Sharon – Have you checked all the outlets where merchandise is available? There are women’s jerseys at World Cycling Productions. Velogear has different items and REI is selling Slipstream jerseys. You should also consider contacting Pearl Izumi let them know you want argyle.

I’m with Ted and Brian… I needs me a painter’s cap!

dear woody,
i am sure that a website called http://www.probikekit.com could sort out a good deal for the national champions jersys. they ship world wide and have a history of stocking national champion jerseys e.g. julian dean’s and micheal boegard’s. i feel that they would be itching to get some especially as they are currently running a “world series” with their PBK team jersey taking other nation’s colours.
thanks a lot for the exciting and fasinating experience which you have provided me with since i began to read this site

Any chance there will be Slipstream Flags available? We’d love to fly it during the Tour!

It seems that there is a lot of interest in the team and very little gear to purchase. Last season Felt had tons of gear to choose from. Is Pearl Izumi going to at least make an argyle wind vest to go with the other argyle gear they are offering? I’d love to see a Slipstream windvest – I’m sure I am not the only one!

I agree with Chris. Everybody loves your team, but there is nothing fans can buy to show that love. What about ball hats, casual t-shirts, everyday stuff????

I’m with all you other guys on the National kit. Price ain’t such a factor. I want Julian Dean’s Kiwi champ one!!! (in large, Kiwis are big fullas) Vive le noir and kia kaha!
If Credit Agricole could do a nat champ jersey y can’t you?

Guys, for the Garmin redesign, could you please go easy on the lavender and other insect attracting colours? This past week I got stung TWICE on the upper leg in my new Slipstream kit. Nasty big horseflies, too.

Cheers,
A fan

Podium Caps? Searched the Net and the only one I can find is cycling cap…

Lots of Slipstream items on eBay right now. Rider issue stuff. Just bought a helmet.

When can we buy the new Garmin Chipotle kit!?!?

Just saw the new kit design on velonews (note–I did not see it on the team’s official website, which is odd). Love the new design. Would love to get a podium hat and/or a t-shirt. Are these available? Surely the team is aware that there will be increased interest in the team given the TDF is starting in two days and is prepared to capitalize on that increased interest by selling merchandise.

Looking for the new kit…
