CACTUS JERSEYS
2007-11-28 21:24:00 OK, I got 50 of em comin. Got 5 x SM, 8 x MD, 12 x L, 15 x XL, and 10 x XXL about 6 weeks out. Sounds like forever, but these babies will probably be sold BEFORE we even get em in. IF you want one, let us know ASAP so we can be sure you get the size yer lookin for. All are listed as a "long sleeve free-ride". We've even left a big space at the top for yer name on the back! Sweet. (3/4 type BMX sleeves look more like a short sleeve over armor. If yer lookin short sleeve, or even no sleeve, you'll just have to hack em off. We'll do a summer batch in short/no sleeves when the weather turns again.) Retail is 89 big 'uns. Reserve NOW. Hey tri-six, can you toss a sneak peak of them jerseys up here somewhere? (sixsixtysix did the art on these bad boys.) read more » More About: Cactus
