2014 CUSTOM CYCLING APPAREL

WHAT MAKES GIORDANA BETTER? EXPERIENCE & QUALITY We have over thirty years of experience in the cycling community and continue to work closely with riders at all levels of the sport; including the top athletes in the world, to stay at the forefront of cycling innovation and technology. We offer a wide variety of proven quality garments, fabrics and chamois to accommodate all ability levels and every climate.

ADVANCED PROCESS Our state-of-the-art facility just outside of Verona, Italy has improved and expanded our capabilities. Most importantly, it keeps all manufacturing processes under one roof, allowing us to monitor every step of the production and uphold our strict quality standards.

GREEN INITIATIVES Our factory not only meets, but surpasses Europe’s strict environmental manufacturing standards. We have taken many steps toward making the process more green, and we continue to grow with this as a priority. All inks used are water based and excess ink is recycled. Transfer paper is also recycled along with excess fabric trimmings. Instead of artificial lighting, skylights are used to provide a natural light source, which significantly decreases energy consumption. As Giordana moves ahead we will strive to further lessen our impact on the environment and its resources.

24 HOURS OF BOOTY Giordana has been a proud supporter of 24 Hours of Booty since its inception in 2002. We are the official 24 Hours of Booty cycling apparel provider. 24 Hours of Booty, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit charity headquartered in Charlotte, N.C. that provides extraordinary cycling events that are safe, fun, and open to all levels of cycling ability. Their mission is to conduct 24-hour cycling events that increase public awareness, funds, and support for the LIVESTRONG Foundation and local cancer organizations.

CANYON BICYCLES

READY TO START? STEP ONE: DECIDE IF YOU’RE A FULL OR NOW CUSTOM ORDER

You can determine this by reading over our program options on page 6 or just give us a call and talk to a custom clothing specialist at 704.943.7914.

STEP TWO: REVIEW PRODUCTION DATES FOR FULL CUSTOM ORDERS ONLY 1. January and February are our busiest production months. Orders placed in January may take up to 1-2 weeks longer than our standard 65 days.

3. June 1st is the last day for approval of NEW artwork in order to receive your order before the factory’s annual August closure. June 15th is the last day for REORDERS in order to receive your order before the factory’s annual August closure.

WHICH PROGRAM IS BEST FOR YOU ?

FULL CUSTOM PROGRAM The FULL CUSTOM fabrics and features have evolved as a result of the symbiotic relationship Giordana has enjoyed for over three decades with the teams and athletes we sponsor.

The Giordana brand has grown over the years with the sport of cycling. As new materials and construction technologies develop, our teams put them to the ultimate test in competition. Similarly, we constantly solicit feedback from these athletes to evaluate every aspect of our apparel. We aim to understand what features they find most essential and what in the future they can imagine might improve their performance. All of this input is directly beneficial to the entire Giordana line. All fabrics and features are professional quality.

Three full custom lines are available:

VERO SCATTO FRC

FULL CUSTOM PROGRAM 6 Designed for the team or club that requires a broad range of garment choices printed with totally unique and personalized designs.

Whether your team or organization has completed artwork or merely a rough idea for a design, we will work with you through every stage to help you realize your vision.

We recommend the FULL Custom option for those who want to order 30 or more pieces. Cost is based on the quantity of garments ordered and the number of colors in the artwork.

Bottoms may be split between bibs, shorts and tights as long as at least 10 of each are ordered.
