Anatomic Sportswear Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 I bought a bib there in around April last year. In December the stitching in the chamois started coming undone.... Was told they "might fix it and would take up to 2 weeks"Morning love2fly... really sorry to read this! Do you remember who you dealt with? We support our products 100% against any manufacturing defaults, I believe it is one of our strengths as a local company...We can certainly repair your bibs, please drop me a pm.On the two weeks it would take, just so you can understand, our factory is in Parys and during the hard lockdown in April, we only had one trip a week between it and our offices, usually around the middle of the week. So if we got your bib on a Friday, it would only get to Parys the next Tues likely, and return the Tues thereafter. It was just a sad reality of the current constraints. Apologies for any inconvenience caused and please let me know where I can helpKind regardsAndrew Long Wheel Base and love2fly 2
Anatomic Sportswear Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 If anyone is looking for some rental space in Northcliff, we have 40 square meters, split into basically 3 nice sunny offices, available on the first floor in our building on Beyers Naude for R5k a month...Would be ideal for something cycling/sport related as it's next door to Cycle Fit and above our Anatomic factory shop... Drop me a pm if you would like any more info.Space can be ready within a week or so. We will also have some more space available on the top floor within the month or so should more space be required... CheersAndrew And a bump on this...Perfect little gap for a little cycling related setup

My concern in addition to possible 2 weeks is that I have other bib shorts that are 4 years old and still going strong. To have to repair after 9 months of lockdown interrupted riding is concerning.

To have to repair after 9 months of lockdown interrupted riding is concerning.As a matter of interest, how much IDT time have your bibs seen.?I find that some of my clothing items and gloves really take a beating indoors.On the other hand, I suppose it's possible that the bib you have is a lemon.

Andrew Steer Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 HI Andrew. I spoke to Elton on around 13 January. My concern in addition to possible 2 weeks is that I have other bib shorts that are 4 years old and still going strong. To have to repair after 9 months of lockdown interrupted riding is concerning.Hey Love2Fly, sorry for the slow reply... bottom line, clothing is made by humans and using threads that can always break or get damaged down the line. It's not exactly a common problem in my experience, but it can honestly happen to any product/brand etcWe obviously apologize for the inconvenience but remain committed to backing up our productsPlease get in touch with us or drop me a pm

I FLY Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Interesting concept re longevity of cycling shorts. In 2008 Anatomic sponsored 9 pairs of bib shorts for the Epic. - one for each day and a spare. After the race I kept two pairs to wear and put the balance away.When the 1st two pairs wore out I took another two out to use. Today I took the 9th and last pair out of storage. I ride approx 5000kms per year - not all rides are in lycra. Another achievement is that my weight and body measurements have stayed the same as the shorts still fit. ChrisF, Andrew Steer and coppi 3

Anatomic Cycling Cap Promo Feb 2021.jpg Saw it last night, asked my club mates for feedback, and we will be ordering some custom caps (aka casquettes, for the traditionalists) in club colours. Just to get a mutually agreeable design from everyone - assuming you will be doing the two sample designs, Andrew? Edited February 3, 2021 by Frosty Andrew Steer 1

I have only ever had fantastic service and products from them. I'm sure this is just double bad luck for you, the stitching as well as the person who didn't assist you properly. I know that it not the standard they they maintain. ChrisF 1
