Nessie Aug 2017 3:14pm, 24 Aug 2017 202 posts	Quote Pin Nessie I love my apricot. And I love the quality of the t-shirt. I'd wear it for every run if I could, so if there is going to be a delay in getting my 50 shirt (did my 44th last week), then I'll probably buy something else from them soon. I've run in race tech t-shirts for years, but compared to the quality and comfort of my apricot, they are actually pretty crap. Not that I'll throw them out or anything (or the large pile of old cotton race t-shirts in my cupboard....).

option_Richard Aug 2017 4:09pm, 24 Aug 2017 23 posts	Quote Pin option_Richard The parkrun/Tribesports kit is a little bit on the expensive side for stuff thats covered in sponsors logos. The milestone t-shirts have a supposed price of £16, & the apricot is £25. I do think they could sell more if they sent out a discount code whenever you reach a milestone. As for the running jacket, £55!
