Introducing two new cycling caps...

Our winter cycling caps are very popular at this time of year and we love Italian wool so here's the classic - Black Sheep and Release the Hounds-tooth winter caps!

We already had feedback for the Black Sheep...





Warning: You may find that these winter caps are irresistible to wear when you are not cycling!

In Praise of, 'The Procrastinator's Guide To Winter Bicycle Commuting.'

We are pleasantly surprise to discover that we had a huge spike of folks looking into our shop during November.

In fact, our popular L'Enfer du Nord wool winter cycling cap literally flew off our shelves. Since then, we are hurrying to re-stock those shelves.


So, it's even nicer when folks write about us without letting us know. Thanks to this article, 'The Procrastinator's Guide to Winter Bicycle Commuting'....

Since September, we have been on a torrid pace busy working on custom embroidery cycling caps. We're proud to show two examples; the California Bear custom cycling cap for an American client and our current project, the Manx cap for our client from the Isle of Man. And, it doesn't look like it's stopping soon, we are also working on custom embroidery caps for two teams in Canada and the US.

It's fun to finally take advantage of our wonderful embroidery machine!




On the hoop...
