So... here goes. These are some quick pictures of the samples I have so far. I am still testing the cut, style, fabrics etc.
I have one pair of full length trousers - in very thick, dark brown moleskin. The fabric is amazingly warm - and pretty shower resistant due to its density. It's wearing well after weeks of daily use. It's gone slightly shiny on the seat - i'm not sure if this a common thing or not?
They have a raised waist at the back, reinforced seat, reinforced belt loops and articulated knees.
The 3/4 length pair have the option of rolling them up above the knee. They also have reflective piping on the back pockets - for a high-viz behind!
The base layer is pretty simple - long arms (that can be buttoned up when not cycling), longer in the body at the back. I have designed the snood to cover the shoulders so that it can be worn with tops that are lower around the neck. It's funnelled so it fits like a polo neck - but with the advantage of being able to take it off when you're hot.
I've also attached the branding i've been working on... any thought on that would be great too!
