Multisport: Impsport ‘Racesuits’ go Live!

After specially developing a tight fitting and exceptionally aerodynamic suit for the Great Britain Cycling Team, sports clothing specialist Impsport has been granted permission to sell them to clubs and teams in their custom printed design. This comes over five years after the suit’s inception, which is known to riders as a ‘Racesuit’ because it is made with an incredibly stretchy fabric and put together with far fewer seams than a standard suit. Designed specifically for track and short distance time trials, the GB Cycling Team has won countless world cup track races and world titles wearing ‘Racesuits’. This has made them incredibly popular with cyclists all over the UK, however, due to certain restrictions the suits have been limited to GB Cycling Team members only. Dan Ellmore, Director of Impsport said, “We named them 'Racesuits' as the technology behind the design provides the wearer with a huge aerodynamic advantage over your average skinsuit. “We are really excited to be able to offer our ‘Racesuits’ to club and team riders. There has been a lot of interest in them with the successes of the Great Britain Team and it was disappointing to have to keep telling people that availability was restricted.” The first team to use the suits domestically was Plowman Craven Evans Cycles who won the RTTC Team Time Trial Title wearing racesuits in the teams distinctive Pink and Blue design. The ‘Racesuit’ is available on www.impsport.com in plain colours as a mail order range and also as custom printed suits printed in club and team designs.
