Alex Brown has a small amount of kit available from stock (usually stuff that has been bought and is not wanted) so if you want something now, or something cheaper please ask him first. Deadlines are strictly adhered to – if you miss the first deadline you will not be able to order kit until next year. The planned current delivery targets are as follows:- in time for The Fours Head, Reading University Head and Metropolitan Regatta.
If you are unsure of your size please ask a member of your squad or Alex as to what might fit. All kit is custom made so swapping it with the supplier is generally not possible. Coaches will generally have a minimum amount of kit that they want you to possess in order to be able to race, please check with yours regarding what they want you to race in.
Finally a word of caution – the VRC red is a custom colour and as such has to be hand dyed, this means that you should only wash kit with other kit of the same colour for the first couple of washes as it will bleed (lycra and technical tops particularly). A small price to pay for ensuring we stand out from Kingston, Marlow, Thames etc.!
