Do I ever gotta have it. You rock V. Thanks for the tip. DH will kill me, I already have a thousand jersey's but like you said... it's got my name written alllllllllll over it.:D :D
Post a picture of yourself in it. :)
Yeah, I have more jerseys than you can shake a stick at myself. But I keep looking anyway.

They have it in a tank style too.

I just got this jersey!
The color isn't what I expected. It is not as bright as the main pic (the reds and oranges are darker, closer to the colors the gal is wearing) but the quality and venting is very, very nice. I'm long-torso'd so it's a little too short for me in the back. Darn!
I ordered the Tri tank, matching shorts and gloves from TE. I'm soooo excited. I'm going to be so fast and will match all over. Only downside - I don't know how well it's going to go with my bright green bike. But I'll look super hot on the IM run!!
Blue Don't even think about applying the "prissy" title here. I know I gave you a hard time over on that other thread, but I have to tell you this will be my first ever *purchased* matching outfit. And I still don't wear lipstick on my rides.
I'm eyeing the gloves myself. The blue MATCHES my bike, helmet, windbreaker etc. My PI's are wrecked from last season. I was disappointed they didn't last a little better but... that just gives me a reason to buy these gorgeous ones!
If that top/jersey was blue/green instead of pink/orange I'd be all over it. I love the full top style, and it's loud but well done. I just can't handle pink, even in the less girly fuschia form. ;)
Those gloves look very sweet. Something different than black/gray.
Wahine: we better get pictures!
So I got my package today. The tank is great and looks fantastic but does not have built in bra. :( So I'll have to wear a sports bra under it. I'm not small enough to get away without.
The shorts fit perfectly in the hips and waist but are choking my quads and the lower seem does nont have any grippy material to keep them in place whilst riding. I suppose I should be happy with my larger than normal quads, but right now I don't like the way they look like stuffed sausages in these shorts.
I'm trying to decide if I should send the shorts back and get a larger size or if I should get someone to alter them to fit my quads and add some grippy elastic. They only need to be let out slightly at the bottom edge. They do fit my bum nicely. :)
The gloves are cute, but they sent me the wrong size, so I'll have to return those anyway.
What would you do? I'm afraid that if I get a larger size it won't fit me in other parts well and the lack of grippy stuff at the leg openings is concerning. I'm also afraid that if I order another short I'll just keep running into the same problem, ie quads abnormally inflated.
Which shorts did you get?
Are tri shorts substantially different in cut from biking shorts.? I know the chamois is different. :p
I'd probably send them back and try a different pair.

These are th ones I ordered. The "racing stripe" matches the top. Very cute, but definitely not cut for my quads.Quote:

Tri shorts are typically cut a little lower in the back so you don't have a lot of fabric there while you run. It also tends to leave an open space for sunburning that you have to watch for. The tank is not long so I will definitely need to be careful about this.
You're probably right. I should get another pair. I just hate shopping for clothes. it's very hard to find things that fit me properly. Shopping for bikes on the other hand...

The lighter stitching should tie in with the top, but the little logo is PINK! But they do have nice paneling from what I can tell and gripper elastic legs which I like.
I need help from the shopping Guru.
Give TE a call. They're really good with helping with sizing. I like the pink logo. But then again I like pink.
Or you could be like me. Order some stuff, decide it's not quite right, give it your husband to send it back, he doesn't get around to it...decide to keep the shorts and knickers because it's been months since you ordered them. :rolleyes:

Thanks V. I'll call them. I'm more worried about the pink in relation to the orange/red design on the tri top.
And yes, I do avoid pink when I can. I have one pink shirt. But it's got cartographic projections on it as the pattern of the fabric, so it's OK.
