What is your retailer footprint? 
I believe Vye is available at Crown? Any plans to expand to other players? 
 

Hi, we’re at Crown (Kenilworth), Granny Gear (Bloemandal) in WC and Powerlab (Randburg) in GP. 

We are investigating plans to expand our retail footprint including possibly our own store and will unveil this as we go. We welcome any interested parties to connect with us at sales@vye.co.za

How do you pronounce the name?

And the kit in the photos looks really fantastic. ✌️

When I was a kid, waai/vaai was a slang word meaning "to go".  eg: "That thing really vaais" - That thing can really move (if talking about a car or bike, say). Or the classic "vaai pozi": lets go home. Maybe this was generational or local to an specific area (KZN/SD), all I know is that I've never heard anyone say "vaai pozi" in stellenbosch 😆.

I always assumed it came from "waai" in afrikaans but apparently there might be portuguese influence too, which checks out:

Above link also shows "Vye" as the anglicized spelling.

But now I'm curious too.

Whatever the case, cool looking kit.

I pronounce it the same as you, used in the same context. I'm going to Vye cycling.
