I will see if I can persuade my one artistic colleague to take a stab at this in illustrator. She will like the pie aspect.

swap the white V for a lime green one, split the other color fields between white and navy blue imo

OK, I am negotiating a deal with my friend to do the design work. Are we willing to take some sponsorship in return for the design, either for the QTPi(e) project above or for the "Caravan Collective" an effort to promote the american dream by selling hotdogs to hipsters.

possibly hotdog of hipsters, by hipster and for hipsters, i don't know, I grilled hotdogs for several hours on friday night in return for beer so it feels like a worthy effort to me.

I need to know where we'd get this printed so I can give a template to the artist.
Quick research says Pactimo, $62 for a continental racefit jersey, min order is 5, Bibs are $63 and I'd be interested if 4 others are, I will need another bib soon.
http://www.pactimo.com/custom/galleries/continental/products/1338
pricinghttp://www.pactimo.com/custom/pages/ordering_made_easy
By no means an exhaustive search, but seems to have the lowest min order and good pricing. We'd get a better deal with http://champ-sys.com/ min 10 @$45 with the added bonus of no minimums on additional items like bibs.
Big Question though:
Club or Race Fit?
― American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Monday, 12 July 2010 13:11 (fifteen years ago)
I'm in whatever the score - thanks guys.
― Mark C, Monday, 12 July 2010 14:09 (fifteen years ago)
I need to build up my cycling wardrobe, so I'd buy a jersey if it would help.
― naus, Monday, 12 July 2010 14:20 (fifteen years ago)
yeah ditto
what's the design like??

coming together, we're using the mexico jersey as a prototype, deeper chevron on the front, club crest replacing the mexico one. Back will have a larger mantis, pies on the pockets, QTPi(e) logos up the sides. Q. is working on the crest right now, I hope to be able to post that up in a week or so. Might be a fairly slowish process.
Did you check the spelling on the Finnish?
Does anyone have an idea for a typeface for the motto?
Do we want anything on the sleeves?

<3 gbx's style in his pic. We'll all get the chance to approve the design, right?
Also, pls pls pls check the finnish is correct, with an actual finnish person (suggest Charlie Wegelius, who may want to buy a jersey), thx.
― Mark C, Monday, 12 July 2010 16:59 (fifteen years ago)

Essentially any shade you want as they do it by sublimation printing. I like the green from the current maillot vert, too much to have Euskatel orange side panels and chevron? (NB should not be trusted on colours)
I like the idea of a sans serif typeface like the bernard one.

our friday night riders have our own jersey now, black with white horizontal stripe lined with green, oh yeah, and a whopping great red star front and back. is really rather nice.

What about Z vetements stule with the fat mantis in the star?
