Odd 'cause the web site doesn't show actual race wear.
We (Mansfield Tri Club) also use ImpSport, it took us ages to finalise the proof but if you stick with it, it's well worth the effort.
A few lessons we learn't along the way:
[ol][*]Don't use bright colours around the groin area. Lycra is very unforgiving and doesn't leave much to the imagination.
[*]Check your proof carefully, like your life depends on it. Check it again, then get someone else to check it.. Twice. If in doubt, get some emails sent to the supplier.
[*]Any questions, ask them BEFORE a box full of kit arrives on you doorstep.
[*]Try and push for a sample before placing your first bulk order.
[*]If you have blacks in your design, these are often made up by printing the black on a white material. When this is stretched it gives the appearance of being faded. Get any panels of solid black made with black material.
[*]We asked for an 'off the shelf' sample made up from one of their standard patterns and produced our design to suit.
[*]If you're having bespoke kit made, justify the expense by being adventurous with your design.[/ol]
