Ok folks! Here it is, the design that’s about to take the XC world by storm! I just e-signed the approval form, so this is the CyclovaXC suit for the 2011 season (and beyond as I don’t see us redoing this anytime soon). After careful consideration, we decided to only offer the “Pro” model. Initially we had thought about doing a “Team” suit as well, but once we got the fabric in the store for the fitting kit, it was just obvious that the “Pro” material is of much higher quality.
As you can see, the top is almost the same as the top we offered for our long sleeve biking jersey. This is good because it means that pretty much all our team gear goes together (speaking of that, if anyone is interested in ordering our team jacket or our team vest, I’m doing a reorder along with the ski suit order, so contact me about your size at: bj@cyclovaxc.com).
The price is 150 + tax for a total of $158.25. This is an extremely low price for a suit of this quality, so we urge anybody who is thinking of skiing this year to pick this up. Heck, if you end up not racing, this stuff makes great thermal underwear (it’s a good buy).
Some things about the design I wanted to point out:
- You’ll notice that the “backside” area is black, most people that I talked to requested this
- I don’t know if you can see it in the above rendering, but on one side of the suit’s top it says “Ski Like Landgraf” and on the other side it says “St. Croix Falls, WI (715) 483 3278”
- The fabric is “Eyelet Mesh Fabric,” which is reportedly a little warmer than the “Tobago” material of our previous suit (I tried a sizing kit suit on today and it did feel super warm)
- The sizing kit is currently at the CyclovaXC retail store and I highly recommend you go in there and try it on. The fit of these suits seems a little tighter than the previous suit
- Tall sizes are available
I need to get our order in to Mt. Borah as soon as possible to ensure that the suits will be ready by ski season. For that reason, you have until November 11th, to contact me with your order (bj@cyclovaxc.com), and to send your checks into the shop.
Checks can be made payable to CyclovaXC and mailed to:
P.O. Box 187
St. Croix Falls, WI 54024
Buying our suit qualifies you as a “core” team member at CyclovaXC which means you’ll be receiving a 10% discount on select items (if you’re planning on skiing a lot, buying one of these suits is going to save you money in the long term).
Re-orders for Vests ($75) and Jackets ($145) can also be made at this time.
The order is going in on November 11th, so make sure you contact me. After that date, the suit price goes up to $165 where it will stay.
