    The kit has caused a bit of a storm on social media. It will be coming out for sale in Denmark soon. I'm going to find out from the UK distributor if it will be for sale in the UK

    Great silver medal for the jersey today
  • Thought I'd bump the thread to say this kit is now available in the uk. I ordered one through Iain grant at target training (iain.grant0701@btopenworld.com), and I felt I should post it up here because he couldn't of been nicer to deal with and deserved a bit of a shout out.

    I'm pretty sure they've been distributed from Italy – so should be arriving in the respective countries very soon, then sent on from there.

    Cool. I've received a few emails from them as something went mental with the payments (they took payment and refunded it, which I think is correct as they said they would take payment when it shipped)

    I don't REALLY know as I don't speak Danish, just going by Google auto translate of the emails.

    Any updates on this PTTest?

    Since I got the last emails no further monies have been debited and I have no idea about shipping.

    Is there someone to talk to? I did buy direct from source. Also I am now gonna be shafted with the FX movement :(

    I do know that kits have arrived with UK dealers and Zetta Distribution. So perhaps the ones destined for Denmark have arrived and they are now shipping out from there?

    Depending on your sizing, Zetta do have a few spare kits in L and XL.

    I am M in shorts, S in the top.

    Do you know when customers are billed? I had the payment taken on the date of order, then refunded along with some follow up emails saying this may be weird but is in fact correct as I will be charged when they ship. Do you have contact details for the distributor for those who purchased direct?

    Thanks

    I don't. I only have details for Zetta. If you've bought the kit from the Danes then you'll need to get in contact with them.

    KIT HAS ARRIVED. may force a ride in the cold tomorrow. Top and bibs are amazing.

    Hat is cheap ill fitting itchy scratchy tat with poor stitching and could have cost £2 from a far eastern market stall. Shame, really

    It says parentini on it (printed on the outside, equally poorly to the DEN logo) but it feels unbelievably cheap and nasty. There is no branding on any tags or labels on the inside other than 70%polyester 30%cotton.

    Frankly it deserves a refund
