Good few of the local clubs use them, seems like very nice kit I only have a tri suit by them though

Current boards.ie kit supplier don't have any of it but people seem to very happy with it

Santini. Bit pricer but really like it nicest kit I own bar a few castelli pieces. Used them for our current club kit so have a good bit of it, chamois in the shorts is the best I've used. Old club kit was made by spin11 and was pretty decent.

eeeee

My club have VeloRevolution kit. It's class, I'd highly recommend it. Supposed to be lovely to deal with too. http://velorevolution.eu

Another plus for velorevolution. Great chance to try everything on too which is always good.

Incorrect, Lucca Sports have supplied the last 2-3 batches of boards.ie kit (which puts another option on the list ). They supply kit from Verge.

Didn't realise that was the last order I paid attention to. My boards kit is from the carvalho days.

We use the Verge kit and are very happy with it, 6 week turn around and quality gear. http://www.luccasports.com/

We get our club gear from Velotec.ie and it's excellent quality, highly recommended

We got out stuff from velorevolution, Aidin was great to deal with. In terms of tips, you need lots of patience, people arse about paying for kit or changing order, etc.

We use velo revolution. Used watt custom before that.

One tip for club orders is get minimum of 50% of the cost of each person order as a non refundable deposit prior to ordering. Will help to cut out those who tend to back out when it comes to actually paying once the kit arrives.

Velorevolution, great kit.

Velo revolution. Quality kit and Aidan really knows his stuff and a sound bloke

Wouldn't recommend santini. A pair of their €60 bib shorts had a hole in them after 12-15 rides. Even Aldi's €10 shorts lasted longer than that.

+1 for verge
Stuff from them is good compared to lot of other club kits around

Regardless of who you choose look at their minimum number for both initial and re-orders and ask about their lead times. If you're a small club then you might struggle to get the minimum number for the initial order which then means any further order for new members take an age to fill and members get frustrated (being responsible for kit is a thankless job).


We've gone for shadowbrand.ie this year - small numbers for intial orders, quick turnaround and our own online shop to make taking member order simpler.

I did this and it was still a pain in the ass. If I was doing it again I'd get 100% upfront and just be done with it.
