I'd think the same. I'll take a spin over to Westend in Blanch tomorrow and maybe to Drogheda if Blanch don't have any. The car could do with a quick blast up the motorway.

Well worth the cash.

Got a large myself last time (5ft9, 90kg!, 42 inch chest in suits)

None in Drogheda either, its order online and collect instore I m told.

Picked one up in letterkenny this morning. They have absolutely loads of them in stock in all three colours but had no red in large unfortunately so I got a black one. They're such a nice jacket and the large is a perfect cut for my size (6ft, 41inch chest, 76kg) I had a gift voucher for €50 so effectively cost me nothing. Delighted with it.

Picked another one up online as bought one in early January when heads up originally given on this thread. Agree with all the other posters on the quality of the jacket and well worth picking one up for anyone undecided.

Good price on this for anyone in the market for one of these at Chain Reaction at the moment. Comes in at just under €625 with code IE10. 10 speed will come in at about €555

Just a word of caution on the Altura Varium jackets. The fit is quite different from other Altura jackets I have. I normally like Altura gear, it suits my broad short shape. I found the Varium to be much narrower and longer than other Altura jackets I have.

TheBlaaMan

They are sold out of some size/colour combinations in the Altura Varium jackets.
If anyone has bought a Blue one in Large and it doesnt fit and wants to sell it on, I'll buy it. Maybe would also consider a Red one in Large.....

PM me

I could have guessed you'd go for the red one !

Went blue myself to blend in with my helmet and bike !

I thought you would. Very important to keep things coordinated.

Yeah letterkenny have huge amount of them in stock but no size L reds unfortunately for me so got a black one.

Really impressed with it, was out for spin on Friday with it and just had base layer underneath and was perfectly warm (although it was probably around 7 degrees so not too cold)

markens2

Out yesterday for a while and tried out the new jacket. It's class. I got the large and I'm 86kg and 6ft and it is a very snug fit. I only had a base layer and SS Jersey on and I was lovely and warm. Great buy. Thanks OP

Did they say why?

Ordered a large in Red on Friday midday. They are now out of stock. Monies are back in my account already.

manafana

their ordering system is poorly done its alot like elverys, most of their stock is on an actual shop floor, so when you order it needs be taken off the floor but assuming between order and someone picking it off the floor its been sold out by someone buying one.
