DBC Wool Jersey Store is OPEN!

As you may know, since November 2011 DBC has had a wool jersey to complement the club kit. Up to now, the jerseys were only available as part of a group order. The manufacturer, Soignuer New Zealand, has set up a place on its website so DBC jerseys can be ordered individually. Anyone wanting to order a jersey no longer has to wait for a group order.

There are two styles available: Solid blue with a larger orange stipe across the chest (with "Davis" written in blue) and cream stripe (with "Bike Club" also in blue);  and orange top, blue bottom with "Davis" in blue across the chest and the same creme stripe with "Bike Club" also in blue. Both styles come in long and short sleeves.

This is a true dyed-in-the-wool jersey: The wool is dyed to match the dark blue and orange in our club kit, and the dyed wooli s used to weave our "Davis Bike Club" design directly into the fabric. Nothing is sewn on or printed. The jersey is made from a very fine (19 micron) wool thread. I think anyone who has one will attest to its comfort and versatility.

DBC wool jerseys are made to order by Soigneur at the time of purchase, so they will take more than a week (and likely longer) to be delivered. Also, as the jerseys are made individually, the cost is higher than when they are purchased and manufactured in bulk. We still have the option to purchase bulk. If anyone is interested in coordinating that effort, please contact me and I will be happy to hand over that responsibility.
