    Write and ask them if you can dye them!!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    it is very difficult to dye synthetic fabric sucessfully. Most is colored during the fiber manufacturing process, before it's even spun out as fiber. More information on dyeing at

    maybe if they sell pretty good.. they'll make them in colors another season! i hope! i'd like some pastels... maybe even black! i mean.. i have black PI's.. but they are warm... this open weave lite material would be nice in black too!

    solsunguard - where can we find it?

    Technotart - thanks for the referral for Sol Sunguard Kindersport - it looks great - but I can't seem to find it anywhere - do you have a favorite online or retail source?
    Thanks!

    I get it at Richardson Bike Mart here in Dallas - (bikemart.com) Im sure they'd be happy to send you some, or I can go get you a tube and mail it to you. Perhaps the kind folks at TE would like to stock this stuff?

    It has no perfume and no sliminess, once it's on I never even know it's there - even on my palms!

    Thanks for the info - I'll give them a call tomorrow and see if I can order it. I also emailed Sol Sunguard themselves to ask if they have a retail outlet around here. Great tip!
