Been traveling...as usual...but I checked in with Champion about a week ago (it might have been two) and they said ours were being produced. I'll check in again this week...it should be soon.

I have a never-worn size large racer cut that I will part with. It's too small for me (actually the chest size is fine, but it's too short for my 6'3 body).

How much? and... you met me... do you think large would fit? Im an extra large kind of guy right now... but maybe a large will work for me in a few months..

Summoner, If you want you can try mine on to see if it fits. I have a large of the same style.

These jerseys, particularly the race-cut, have a reputation for running small.

I have a fairly skinny but long torso. I'm 41" in the chest, and it is just about the right - fitted but not too tight. But if you are any bigger around, you won't fit in it. Problem is I need something a couple inches longer.

I just purchased a Fat Tire jersey... reading the specs on how a race cut jersey should fit I think the XL works for me at this stage of my weight loss.... heres a link that Drew posted up in the 'whats up' forum: Link (http://shop.newbelgium.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=BJ)

OK... I broke out the measuring tape that came with my Yakima rack... and I have about a 41.5 in chest... not sure where I should measure from exactly.... I think the XL will work...

Just curious about bike clothing... might need a little 'clothing 101' here.... you wear a jersey alone when its warm.. but when colder you should wear something under? or over like a breaker?

Also a newb here but I think I can field this one. When its cold I wear a base layer (like under armour) and/or a jacket. They make cycling specific jackets w/removable sleeves, rear pockets, etc...

I have a New Belgium/Fat Tire jersey in size Large from 2006. It's a Voler and the New Belgium site says it's race cut. It fits me perfectly.

I have a Large race-cut Champ-Sys of the So.Cal jersey and it is VERY tight and a bit short for me. Maybe when I lose a little in the middle it will work better. :o

I have a Large club-cut Champ-Sys (modeled in my avatar by resident 2 yr old) and it fits more like the Voler New Belgium jersey.

Not sure if that gives you any help..... but maybe.

I actually ordered an XL race cut from the New Belgium website and CJ sold me his SoCal BF XL club cut. The club cut is loose on me in the gut but fits well in the chest and arms. As for the race cut, its perfect!

But thanks for thinking of me!
