I prefer the understated elements of the the last two options. I would be happy with the star instead of HTFU.

1) True that I do not want the jersey, just my 2 cents worth...,lol. 2) I just joined this forum yesterday but I started cycling many many years ago. 3) I didn't know newbies weren't allowed to vote, sorry my mistake, thanks.

Yea, you can call it a tease I guess. My style is pretty consistent. What I am saying is that I am going to do what I want in regards to what I feel is best, based on my 10+ years in the design business. I think people want a rad looking kit, with references to Bike Forums that aren't overt or cheesy. I have NEVER liked HTFU on the jersey because I think it is played out and EVERY cyclist "gets it already" which is why I always hid in the back pocket. I changed it because I was sliiightly influenced by opinion but now I am just going to go back to trusting my gut. I DO think some of the options with stripes were nice as well so that may come back. Who knows, I will consult with a close circle of fellow designers on those decisions.
I am referencing Pactimo right now because they are the first ones I have contacted...but in reality their jerseys seem a little pricey. I want to go back through your threads/e-mails on shipping to see how you handled it all with Primal. It is just going to take some time since I am handling design and production this time...unless someone else wants to manage production
I am not expecting anything out of this one. I will buy my own jersey. It seemed like figuring out reimbursement for that was terrible. Maybe I could do an optional donation.
If I take lead on design I am more than willing to do various cuts.

I think instead of HTFU it should have a hand so it looks like you're waving to someone as they ride by. You don't want to be one of those elitist ****** in a full kit that never waves!

I like white jerseys, but they can make the moobs of slightly weighty riders really poke out. Just being honest. If you wear a HR strap, forgetaboutit.

Hard decision. I like the contrast between the body and sleeves. I own one white jersey and it is my "Special Ride" jersey, so it doesn't get used often. I try to avoid all white, even though it makes you look like the hero of any movie ever. These are some classy looking jerseys though. I do enjoy a kit with a good portion white with various accent colors for heat and visibility reasons.
Good work on the designs though. I can see me attempting to capture some KoMs in these. If the blue accent was red, it would almost perfectly match my bike (I.e. change it to red, haha).
