Tandem Team Apparel

• Aero Tech Designs - Unisex-sized but recommended by several tandem teams.
• Ground Effects , New Zealand based company which came highly recommended by some folks down under.
• Kucharick - Quite a few teams have the matching Kokopelli Tandem jersey and I believe they have two other tandem-specific designs. (Unisex-sized & Kids)
• Pearl Izumi - All kinds of plain to wild to pro team apparel that comes in unisex and gender-specific sizing.
• Primal Wear - All kinds of funky apparel for men and women that either matches or is closely coordinated.
• ProBikeKit - Professional Cycling Team Apparel at reasonable prices.
• Team Estrogen - You can work backwards from Team Estrogen's Web site, i.e., find women's apparel that appeals to your beloved and then go to that manufacturer (find them using Google.com or Bikeapparel.com ) to see if they have matching or coordinated jerseys for men.
• Velo Gear - Team and Collegiate Jerseys & other interesting cycling apparel that might suit your needs.
• Voler Wear - Highly recommended by several teams and they feature cycling shorts in a wide variety of colors.
• Young Originals - Young Originals will purportedly make cycling apparel for what many others charge for off-the-rack.
• Check out your local bikes shops to see what they have hanging around. I've always liked the "local flavor" that LBS sponsored cycling team jerseys have and in many cases you don't have to be a member of the team to buy the jerseys.
