retro jersey w/ white sleeves?
Ok, I want one, and I guess I'm willing to go to ChampSys and whatnot to get these produced. Anyone else want them?
(Also, to the designer of this jersey, can you pm me the design so I can post it here? Thanks
)

Those in (i.e. have already PMed/replied with sizing info):
moi (nekohime)
threeflys
tinrobot
epicsurf
Crash 716
TCR
3dsteve
AP1EKWAN
il bruto
slabby
Maybe in (i.e. have not PMed/posted with sizing info):
Condorita
buck65
cuda2k
Badpenny
spinerguy

I'd be more down for this one than the other one....

They might need some work before manufacturing, so let me know so I can help. My only request is that any changes go through me.
Someone in another thread indicated that the wraparound of the logo is a problem because it might not line up in all of the sizes. Check with the manufacturer before ordering, do not drive under the influence, your mileage may vary, etc, etc...
One more thing... it's kind of funny to see the different jersey threads with everyone plugging their favorites. I do like mine, but there were some other great ones as well. All I ask is that, when the dust settles, if someone actually does make one of my designs, let me know so I can get one.

That makes three of us...oh, four since we're counting tinrobot.
I really, really like this one though, even if the BIKEFORUMS part is so blatantly advertised, so I'd go the distance to have it made. Anyone else? Anyone?
(I still think Bikeforums and SoCal should be switched, but like people said on the other retro jersey thread both having BF logo or SoCal in prominence have points for and against them. I'm of the "travel a lot and want people to know I'm from SoCal" and "don't want uberforumgeekness advertised" camps, lol. I leave the final decision to tinrobot though.)

If the design can work with the panels vs stripe, I'd probably be in for one of those. I likey.

Bet they can get you a long sleeve version, especially if production goes to ChampSys.

Yeah, I guess Voler is a bit expensive.
On another note, I completely missed out on other jersey designs. Can't find them anywhere now. Has this design been finalized or is the poll still open? I would love to look at the other designs.

Voler has a per-color charge also, because of the printing process. A screen is made for each color. Champion use dye sublimination, so they do not need to make seperate passes for each color.

I really like the jersey, but would replace bikeforums with California/ Los Angeles/ etc...
Seems like the whole BF jersey isn't such a welcomed idea.
