Steve Hampsten inquiry

Steve:

Nice article on your brother in the all 2007 supplement to Outside magazine. Are you going to produce more of the wild boar jerseys? Very unique.

[Steve Hampsten]

Thanks! It was neat article and it's fun to see the jump in our businesses from some mainstream press.

(Is it just me, or is naming a magazine "Outside's Go" a trifle clunky? I think of Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Or the band The Sixths...)

The jersey...was complicated. I was never thrilled with the fabric, or the cut, or the quality of the sublimation - but the original design by Julia was quite good.

Short answer: we're planning a couple of jerseys for next year but we're not planning on doing that one. Could change, though.

Sorta like US Postal Service Team, Presented by Barry Floor or whatever it was.

Well...

"GO Outside" would be way too obvious...confused the marketing people...honest

how'z about: mastercard card? i speak from experience here, if you ever have to say it in a commercial or on radio, they make you say "mastercard (freakin') card". insane.

Will the owners of Assos, Castelli, Descente, De Marchi, and/or Pearl Izumi please call Mr. Steve Hampsten on the white courtesy phone? Riders need cool gear with the cinghiale on it for next season!

[Steve Hampsten]

and we'd like that in a wool blend, please,

with fabulous sublimation and cut

mom always said mastication would make me go blind, so wit' the mastercardcard i can...nevermind

[soulspinner]

My mom caught me masticating once-threatened me with a fork...

[Blue Jays]

Maybe the folks who made the wool jerseys for SEVEN can create something cool with a HAMPSTEN motif? Keep yer' fingers crossed for next season!
