Race Jerseys - available in Oz
« on: July 06, 2011, 03:37:59 pm »
See as now the GCR's require back numbers on riding jerseys, and I am entering the OZ titles, can anyone point me in the direction of an Australian business that does desent race jerseys, as I would prefer to buy from a local source. I am after a appropriate late 70's style Husqvarna jersey to go with the 390 auto I intend to ride.

Thanks,

CJ

Just buy any jersey you like and head down to Port road ( i assume your in SA ) and next to the entertainment centre that sport store  that does them in name and number for like $20 onto you tops, pants etc they do all the sports clubs. i have like 4 sets and they all have lasted for years.

You can buy a identa-kit from most bike stores that allows you to iron on your custom name and numbers.
Also most graphics companies now do custom back transfers for your jerseys.

Putting the number on the back is not the issue, I want to find out if there is anyone here in Oz that actually sells old style MX jerseys, prefferably a vintage Husky style, as I don't want to look like a multi-coloured Rorschach Test!!

Ditto for Metro Racing, have had plenty of good gear from them. Vintage Iron are good too, postage costs from the USA are up lately but the gear's bloody good. Forget shopping local...but any good sports store will sort you out with iron-on numbers for your back...

There is a company in UK that makes vintage jerseys
http://www.destroyclothing.co.uk/5.html

also you may want to check out
http://ozvmx.com/community/index.php?topic=15751.0

You might be able to find a plain long sleeve shirt and put your own iron ons too or get a Husky logo printed on. There just is not many options in Australia for pre made vintage jerseys.

Perhaps go for a stroll through Target/Coles or Big W -- Mens section has light Jerseys/Jumpers...sidecar guys usually get two  ;D and look way cool...stripes or plain..Then you can throw as much graffeettee at it, as you like  ;D
cheers A
or you could pick something up here in Brisvegas  8)

Why would they need back number when they make you hire a transponder?  :-\

Wandering a bit off topic, but I had a netball bib made up with my back number. That way I could put it over any jersey I wanted, change the jersey if it got soaked halfway through the day etc.
