RM GEAR! WE'RE READY TO GO! :)

[Hammie]

Should I ignore the payment email then?

I guess so... I put it through on my end, so I assume he canceled the one sent to you...?

I assume when I transferred it over that the other one is no longer valid, so ignoring the email is the correct thing to do. My end is not showing it as "paid" yet - I'll give it another day and check again. The money was pulled from my account when I did the original payment. First time doing this email payment thing.

Depending on your bank, they expire after 30 days if they haven't been retrieved and the money goes back into your account without penalty. You just can't access that money until it bounces back to you. If you pay to cancel it ($3.50 charge with CIBC), you get the $$$ back in your account right away.

I really don't know what size to order ... I ended up wearing men's sizes in the axis wear as the womens were too short.I had a betty style but never wore it because it was not long enough. But a men's singlet is one item that doesn't transfer very well! Guess I will just guess and hope for the best ... I really like the new designs! And though sizes are a dilemma sizes are hard no matter what you do (short of having the stock to try on and that would be pretty much impossible!)!!!!!

Marg does have a few samples in Ottawa, but her schedule is crazy so it would be tough to coordinate trials. I wonder if someone with more time on their hands could get the samples from Marg and then coordinate with a few people to try them on...?

Worst case, order now and then you can change your requested size once we get the info (if they ever send it to us!!).

[DonnaRigs]

I know everyone is crazy anxious, but can you make the deadline the last day of Feb? I am crazy busy getting things ready and leave for Churchill at some ungodly hour early next week, but will place my order as soon as I get back..

Please, with sugar?

That will be up to Marg... and I think depends on what you want to order, as she wanted to get the tech order in before the hoodie order.

[ceileigh]

Ultraslacker - that's what I am going to do order now and if we get sizes and if I realize I need to change before the order goes in, then request a size change. As I said, it is so hard to get sizes. I find women's sizing is especially all over the map. Not much anyone can do about it! Maybe some day we will be so big we'll have our gear in stores all over Canada

[Marg]

I only have samples of the tri shorts, and a marathon singlet, which is male specific. No running singlets unfortunately.
If anyone locally wants to see the shorts and try them on, I have all sizes for male and female.

I still haven't heard back on the women's sizing so will call today.

Hmmm ... A potential Ottawa Downtown Luncheon M&G in the works, possibly ...

As for sizing ... for those Maniacs who acquired any of the Bman's Livestronger and/or Tri-the-World schwag .... I am pretty sure that they were from the same supplier ...

[Marg]

Same supplier Andy, you're right.

Andy, if you want to get this swag, let me know. I'm not in M&G shape right now.

Great ... If there is a "will" to have a luncheon M&G in the next week or two ... I'm game .. perhaps, an opportunity to meet the newest edition to the RM Fold ... aka Dexter's debutant, perhaps ???

As for the Tri and Tank Top (Men's) sizing ... I went with medium for the Tri-the-World schwag ... the tank top was fine, but the Tri Top was defiitely well fitted, imo ... and, the tri shorts fit me well in a medium ... again, I will confirm my sizes later tonight / week ... as a point of reference ...

Socks indicate "one size" as the only option. What size will they bey. If they are typical size that go up to size 12, I will be bummed as I want some new socks that are XL in size, ie size 13+...

I would LOVE to have RM socks..

Still trying to get an answer on that...

[ultraslacker]

k peeps, we got the final proofs for the items we were waiting on, so I'll post those tonight for you to see (can't do it from work).

[ceileigh]

I just wrote off my cycling shirt and some technical tanks due to the restoration crews goof up post flood so looks like the insurance company will be buying my RM gear!

good stuff!!


I am trying my best to get answers to the questions that have been posted... as soon as I know, you guys will know! :)

[ceileigh]

I did measure my cycling shirt before it was thrown out. I was surprised at the measurements ... mind it you it sat four months in sewer water and it stunk!!! But at least I have an idea of size now!

Great, thanks for letting us know.

here's the revised proof for the socks:



I thought they sent the shirt one too but this was it. No big surprises here!

Same supplier as their everyman marathon too?

[Marg]

Here is what the Tri shorts look like:

[ultraslacker]

answer on the socks (sort of):
They come in XS to XL, unisex sizing. But they didn't give me corresponding shoe sizes. I would assume it's comparable to defeet, where I wear S/M with an 8 1/2 women's shoe. If you're a 13 men's, probably go with XL.

I will adjust the shopping cart today to show the various sizes. Those who have already placed orders for socks can send me your size preference here or via pm and I will manually update your order. :)
