Add link = STW makes money (IIRC)
Some ace stuff there, the Gryphon jersey is a polartec fleece sort of thing, brilliant cold weather top, never had something so good at staying dry despite my sweatiness
Few more quid spent, thanks OP
Cheers OP, I've ordered the Glidepath shorts and a 3/4 sleeve MTB top.
Anyone who knows me IRL will know I bloody love a 3/4 sleeve top.
😀
My god! That stuff is expensive at 50% off! I hope it's ammmmmazzzzing
It's easily the best kit I've used. Half price makes it a no brained.
is there really a stw code - how do you use it ?

There is a discount code for a first order but it expired a year or two ago.

Ah - I thought it was a code that gave STW a cashback somehow. Never mind then. Ta
Oh, best bet for that is use the link I stuck in earlier to the 7mesh stuff on sportpursuit and STW may possibly benefit by way of a referral commission. You don’t have to do anything other than go to their site via a link on this site and spend money.
What’s the sizing like?
What’s the sizing like?
I’d say true to their sizing chart. Most brands I’m very medium but 7mesh I’m definitely small. (I’m 5’8”, 32 waist and 38 chest)
Well I'm a few hundred quid lighter now!! 🤣🤣🤣 Been tempted by the Outflow jacket for a while and this was the final push I needed! Great PSA!
I've been using 7Mesh for years now, think my first order with them was back in 2016 and everything from that first order is still in service and is used regularly. I genuinely won't wear anything else now. The fit is awesome, it's amazing quality and the performance of every piece I've had (and I've got A LOT of it) has been next level. Cannot recommend them enough and at those prices it's a no brainer, stock up while you can!
Now I'm slightly worried my medium shorts will be too big for my 33in waist.
Anyone reassure me?
You'll be fine with a medium. My shorts are all medium and I'm a 32" waist. I generally wear small in the tops and medium in the shorts/trousers (though my Thunderpants are a small). For reference I'm 6ft, 165lb and prefer a slimmer fit.
7Mesh actually use a great form of "fit" type, they have "relaxed", "trim" and "skin" fits. If tops are "relaxed" I go small, if they're "trim" or "skin", I go medium.
I have a rebellion hi viz that I use on road and gravel and it has been impressive..
You’ll be fine with a medium. My shorts are all medium and I’m a 32″ waist.
Thank you good sir.
for what it's worth, as a 5'9 31" waist person, I bought their Glidepath trousers in small and had to exchange for medium to get a good fit. This was direct with them rather than via Sportpursuit, but the service while I did all this was excellent.

More random sizing from bike kit makers :-(. I just ordered an XXL Corsa jacket, fully expecting to send it back cos it's too large or too small - no way of predicting which.
More random sizing from bike kit makers 🙁
in fairness I think on their size guide I was on the line between small and medium and the reviews had some people with similar size to me saying they'd landed on the other side of it. Maybe I'm really a 32" and need to re-measure 🙂
Like I say, 7mesh service doing the exchange was excellent - thy preserved my discount on the reorder, friendly/professional/etc.
What would be useful would be to give the actual size of the garment, not a judgement as to what size person a particular item will fit.
Sorry for the diversion ....
Ordered some bits for me and mrs blitz so that’s Xmas pressies sorted for each of us.
Thanks for that - I got their 'advance Black Friday' email earlier and put two things in my basket.
Sportpursuit was another 30% cheaper....
has anyone that ordered 7Mesh stuff from Sport Pursuit actually received their order yet?
There's still 7Mesh stuff on there - says "Estimated Delivery (United Kingdom): From Tue 13 Dec 2022"
i ordered 15th Nov, items in stock etc, now estimate delivery 15-19th Dec..
Delivery mid December for me too
I looked when the psa came up. The various items I wanted all said "item is with our supplier" & "delivery estimate 13th December".
I've used sp lots over the years and they've always been about right on their estimates.
Yeah, basically, if it's not under the "Quick delivery" list, place your order and forget about it. When stuff eventually turns up, it's a nice surprise 🙂
It's a bit like AliExpress. Don't order anything you really need right now, or tie up cash, and get a nice present when/if it shows up.

Exactly that. When a delivery van shows up unexpectedly, it's always SP
^ ta for the responses above, not in any rush - never used SP before.
They have cancelled my order, issue with stock.
I've just had my second refund due to stock issues on individual items in my order. Luckily not the ones I really wanted - hopefully the rest will go through!
Will be annoyed if that happens - I'd looked at the stuff on 7Mesh but it was cheaper via SP...
I've had the dispatch notice for one of my items, the other one's gone out to January now. Naturally the one I was most looking forward to is the late one. I'm sure they were both early December when we ordered? But better late than never.
Yeah, I've had dispatch note for jersey.
More interested the shorts, but at least they're not cancelled. It's trouser weather for a while anyway, so I can wait.
Ugh - Mine has been pushed out to January. I can see that being cancelled.
Supposedly 3 of my 5 items have been shipped, but the tracking hasn't updated since Tuesday when they said they'd sent it to Royal Mail, but nothing since. Annoyingly, the one thing I really wanted/needed, the Outflow Jacket, has been pushed back to January 🙁
Definitely fault on SportPursuit, as 7Mesh are usually epically quick at getting stuff out having gone direct before hand.
Loads of my SportPursuit orders have been pushed back to Jan now.
They may have over committed with stock/deliveries.
Email this morning saying 4/5 shipped for me. Pleased as a couple are presents for Mrs Blitz but the one item not shipped is a corsa top which was the one I most wanted.
Tops not coming "until Jan"; socks and nasty coloured mesh undershorts arriving tomorrow.
My short and long sleeved top are with the post office, delivery tomorrow.
3 of my 5 garments pushed back to Jan. Weirdly I bought 2 of the same thing and 1 has been shipped......hmmmm
.
Mine shipped with some courier whose website looks like it wss knocked up on WordPress by an intern,no actual tracking details on it at all
First package delivered, just had an email to say the second, which they said had been pushed back to January has just shipped too 😁
Yeah likewise! They are really playing with my emotions here.
Order was pushed back to Jan. had email today saying order dispatched
Order was pushed back to Jan. had email today saying order dispatched
Same here.

Corsa top order cancelled today and refunded 🙄
My Corsa jacket was just delivered 10 days ahead of the predicted date. Fits perfectly. Well chuffed. (Sorry, @blitz 🥲 )
Anyone else still waiting on their delivery. Mine was dispatched a week ago but royal mail tracking still shows
This item has been despatched to Royal Mail.
The sender has advised they've despatched your item to us.
So looks like it's not been picked up yet
same for me
Mine was collected on 9th still not arrived yet one collected on 13th they tried to deliver today on a Sunday! I was out as didn’t expect a Sunday delivery
Jersey arrived and very nice. Shorts still en route.
Some shorts arrived, they are really nice. Good adjusters and belt loops too.
The jersey is too tight and will need to go back. Shame as it looks high quality, and three more tops are on the way in same size.
anyone else still waiting? mine says was despatched to RM on the 9th - still no change as of today 20/12?
Yeah still awaiting my shorts.
Strikes and Xmas rush mean delays to be expected though.
I'm in no hurry, fortunately.
yeah, sitting on 'despatched to RM' since the 8th for me. I'm not too bothered (maybe that second estimate of January will come true after all) as long as it does turn up, but sod's law it'll happen while I'm visiting at xmas and get complicated.
mine says was despatched to RM on the 9th – still no change as of today 20/12?
ditto
cool wondered if it was a glitch in the matrix, but im in no rush just assumed being dispatched on the 9th theyd at least be in transit by now, will update when they arrive
mine says was despatched to RM on the 9th – still no change as of today 20/12?
Same. Not going to stress about it until the new year.
Just got email from RM saying they've got my shorts... but that it may take some time for me to get them.
Had a message from RM will deliver today after being dispatched on 9th
my order arrived this morning
my order arrived this morning
Same. January has come early! Happy New Year, everyone!
my order is 'arriving today'. I'm leaving to go start xmas visits at about midday, so it's a race! That the poor postie will probably lose, but never mind eh.
My postie kindly left my parcel in porch which I was happy with as didn’t want hassle of going to pick up
my order is ‘arriving today’
Ditto.
It'll be like Xmas come early.
Mine arrived. Quite a bit going back after Christmas so if anyone wanted but didn’t get the following and wants to buy them from me plus postage before I send back then say.
Mens Farside Long Shorts Loam Medium
Mens Farside Long Shorts Loam Large
Mens mk3 cargo bib shirts thyme large
Mens Desperado Henley t shirt Brickwork Large
@ me if you want anything.
Honestly pretty much everything but the Mk3 cargo bibs is going back. Everything else is ok, but just slightly uncomfortable fabrics. Stiff, limited stretch, cut well but either too big or too small. Not as nice as rapha trail or Patagonia at all.
Glidepath shorts have landed here.
Brown colour quite pleasant, but may make me look like a scout leader if I pair it with a green top (which woggle for enduro?).
Fit well, very light but not wispy. Hopefully will prove durable. Could stand to be an inch longer in the leg, but quite tolerable as they are.
Several bits to go back here too, but only because I ordered multiple sizes to try.
I've got medium and large bibs. Both 'fit' and if I'd ordered either size individually I'd be happy. But since I have both I'm struggling to decide whether to keep the bigger or smaller.
I'm leaning towards smaller being less likely to have pad problems when put to actual use. Agree?
@allyharp - go for the smaller - thats what they told me at 7mesh when i had a query on a non-sports pursuit purchase, and im totally happy with decision, i ordered a medium and small and both felt fine, but the small pad sits better where its supposed to when riding which is the advice they gave me, spot on advice as they are so damn comfortble
ps. my stuff turned up today also, hopefully its the same fit as the other stuff ive had before and if so a very good bargain, thanks again!
The remainder of my split order also turned up today. But these were just different colours of a couple of the MTB jerseys I’d already received. I really like the Compound jersey in particular. Great cut and material.
Anyone interested in a pair of cargo mk3 bibs in small? Before I send them back?
Literally tried on with pants and think they are gonna be too small - I’ve washed them in halo sports wash just to make sure no remains of me on them
Can have them a 10er cheaper than sports pursuit (cost me 82 posted), so 72 posted if any good? Save the wait - lovely lovely bibs
Similar to the above posts, if anyone's interested in any of the following for SP price +postage let me know before Tuesday. (or swaps for small shorts!)
Mens Slab shorts (Thyme) Medium
Mens Farside long shorts (Blue) Medium
Mens Glidepath shorts (Loam) Medium
Optic 3/4 Jersey (Blue) Medium
Mens Desperado Henley (black) Medium
