White in cycling kit

[Wazza]

Hi guys,

 

I am in the process of designing MTB cycling kit for our company. Our logo is basically blue and white. The kit with the majority white looks the best, but what is your feeling regarding this and getting dirty/muddy and cleaning after races? Does it stay white for long?

 

Thanks

Post some example pics.

 

Not much of a mtb er but white would probably not stay clean long, omo will be your friend

THe amount of white in your kit is directly proportional to the size of your teams sponsorship.  Either that or the strength of your wife's washing powder.

 

I mean even SURF does not sponsor a white MTB cycling kit.

Ok here is what we are looking at, but I'm thinking a blue lower back section as well. Unfortunetely I have to stick to the corporate colour scheme!

Not too dark either. You ride slower on a MTB so less wind to cool you down. The sun will bake you too death in dark kit.

very nice, but grey or light brown will replace the white after the first wash. 

 

ps has the EL at the end of Nokusa got religious meaning as in Isra-el, ext?

nice and basic but add more swirls or fades in red. You are already paying for the extra cour so use it.

thank you, just asking

To me, your colours look similar to Standard Bank's kit & I've seen some fairly presentable mtbers in that.  You may be fine with what you've got.

 

Check SeanMort / MichaelH & maybe NancyD if memory serves.
