I went to Sports Direct in Rochester, Kent, UK this morning and found the £5 Slazenger jammers in navy blue but couldn't find the £2-50 swim briefs. Although it is a big store with loads of stock the mail order warehouse always has more. I did find the £5 Slazenger swim briefs in the same navy blue as the jammers. I went crazy and bought the jammers and the briefs in size small 30".

The jammers have a waist cord and no elastic in the leg end hems. They are made from 6 panels which is ideal for this project although the side panels are narrow.

I intend to make a cycle pad for the jammers and to sew it in, making them into triathlon shorts. I may do the same with the briefs.

If Skinnykid wants I will mail them to him on a send me some expenses or burn them basis.

What kind of a jersey do you want, Sports Direct have cycle jerseys and running vests at low prices on their website. What do you want to slip on after the swim section to cycle and run in?

I was looking at
http://m.sportsdirect.com/mt/www.spo...n_jtt_redirect

It seems like a decent jersey. I'm not too picky on jeresies. Do you take money over PayPal?

Silly reply from some woman at SD : "If they are not on the website then they are not in stock".
Well H02 WERE on the website but still not in stock
(some really unsuitable people seem to get chucked into Customer "Service"
sometimes - she still hasn't said what is the shipping charge to the USA)

Default shipping

LOL - you just beat me to it (pounds not euros - the UK never joined
the Eurozone - thank God, considering the mess they are in).

SD's jammers shipping to the USA would be £11.99 or $18
(a rip-off - what they lose on the swings they gain on the
roundabouts as the saying goes).
