Amici Veloci – REORDER TIME

[winddance]

Winddance, I'll bring my short sleeve club cut and sleeveless race cut with me on Saturday. They are both mediums, but you should be able to get some idea.

Do you have a shop nearby that Voler jerseys you can try?

I don't know...probably, but I doubt I'd find anything in a women's XS to try on. I usually get laughed at when I ask about stuff like that. I'd love to take a look on Saturday!

I have the orange Sportful ss jersey that's on TE. The XS fits me and is about the same dimensions as the XS in this jersey, so the XS club fit is my current fit hypothesis due to the curvyness, although I'm concerned it'll be too short. A size S Hincapie that I have is very roomy. (I know. I have such problems...)

You can count on me for one jersey, a pair of armwarmers, and possibly a wind vest, though. I just have to figure out which jersey!

I'd also like to hear the long version of the story. I didn't know about this!
I wear a lot of off brand junk I find on ebay, but I do have a Shebeest jersey in medium that fits pretty well (I like my stuff loose). I think I'll have to pick up a sleeveless....
And then I'll have to come to California and ride with the AV group....

I put in my order for a short sleeve, but forgot to put that it was mtkitchn on the order....so Sue from Phoenix is mtkitchn....
if it matters!

I'll bring my collection of AV attire to the Diablo ride on Saturday to try on. That'll be a women's size Med short-sleeve (club cut), a women's size med sleeveless (race cut, since club cut isn't available in sleeveless, alas), size small armwarmers, and a size small (unisex) windvest.


I had purchased the size small (unisex) windvest in a fit of optimism back when I was about 10 pounds lighter than I am now . It was a bit snug on my hips even back then, but now that I've piled back on the pounds I've decided it's just too small for me now to even attempt to alter it.

I think it would fit someone with size 8 hips. Not "optimistic" (or delusional) size 8, a real size 8 I don't like my clothing too snug, so maybe someone who wears a size 10 would tolerate it, but I sure don't.

So, if anyone is interested, I'd be glad to sell my unisex small windvest, which has never been worn, and I'll order myself a medium. The windvest is absolutely stunning, by the way.

I'd just as soon sell it to someone at the Diablo ride this Saturday, or someone who is going to be at the Little Red Riding Hood ride, so I don't need to deal with postage (altho I could be talked into express-mailing it to someone so they get it prior to LRRH). So first dibs go to anyone at the Diablo ride or is doing LRRH. Please PM me. Cost is whatever the windvests are going for in the current order.

SK - What a cool story...and another vote for wanting to read the 'long version'!

Whomever designed this jersey did a bang up job! I also feel a bit like an interloper here as such a newbie to this forum, but I'm definitely planning on placing an order. If I get a wind vest, I could probably get away with wearing it over my MS team jersey for our ride here in September, right? That said...I really need more sleeveless jerseys. Hmmm....how to decide which items I want/need?!

If we order the wrong size, would it be possible to send it back and get another size? (I'd pay for the shipping, of course!)

Sorry, this is a custom order, one time shot. You really need to find a shop stocking Voler or someone who has one or use the sizing chart. Voler is used for a lot of event and race team jerseys.

Post your height, weight, bust size, anything that will help us help you. Someone may be very similar in build and can give you a recommendation. Again, what jerseys fit you well for comparison?

[SadieKate]

I have a gigantic box of sizing samples (including thermal stuff) coming tomorrow. I will have it with me Saturday to try after the ride, so everyone who can needs to be there!

I must ship back by June 12 but will do my best to have them available locally.

Other sizing ideas are to check with your local clubs, many of whom use Voler jerseys.

Sorry, didn't realize. I'll look around for Voler, but the Cannondale large jerseys usually fit me well. Same with Sugoi. Pearl Izumi's are usually too short for my long-ish torso.

I'm about 5'7.5", 150lbs.
