Skin suit sources?
I race unattached, not on a team. I'm looking to buy a skin suit (with short sleeves) for TTs. Can't find one. All the skin suits I've seen are sleeveless. Can't find on online so far, checked Performance and Colo Cyclist, I even looked at Pearl Izumi's own website. No dice.
Can anyone link me to a mail order joint that sells skin suits without team logos? Thanks.

I ordered the Voler from Hammer Nutrition because it's fairly inexpensive at $80. It's a nice skinsuit. I'm unattached as well, but I don't mind wearing the Hammer stuff occasionally.

Voler has some good prices and if you can handle the chamois then it's good deal.

you can get them custom made from https://youngoriginals.com/ for not much different than mass produced prices.

I wouldn't be caught dead in this. I'd rather wear a skinsuit fashioned by the Silence of the Lambs guy (posted above) than this.

I joined a second-claim club just because I could get a skinsuit for £23.
(joining was £5 - and if I race for them once more I get a free regular jersey!)
