7mesh mk3 bibshorts - not available anywhere

daniel_b

Glowing reviews, 5 stars everywhere, and yet seemingly not available anywhere.

Am I missing something, was there some production issue?
Or way more demand than supply?

lemonenema

seems they are out of stock for uk distribution but are available in the US. might be that they are moving on to the mk4 or having production issues as you say?

7mesh

Hey there,

yes, this was a case of supply and demand. We're getting another production run built as quick as we can and working with our retailers to get them availability. You can always contact us directly service@7mesh.com and we can work with you to find a pair.

Thanks,
7mesh

Well hello 7Mesh, I did not expect a reply direct from yourselves, thankyou for taking the time!

I'm not in a huge hurry, so happy to wait for them to re-appear.

Unrelated question, the Oro shakedry jacket seems to have all but disappeared from UK stores, unless it's in an XL - is it stopping production totally, continuing as is, or is there a revised model coming out?

7mesh

ha, no worries. Big brother is watching!

Oro is staying as is - why mess with a good thing. Sigma Sports should have them in stock again by the end of August or you can order direct from us. https://7mesh.com/mens-oro-jacket It'll ship from our European warehouse. Just make sure you're on the UK site

Thanks, 7mesh.

Got them from the 7mesh site direct: https://7mesh.com/mens-mk3-bib-short

EDIT - seems like small large and XL are the only ones left

Ah missed this, small gone now too, though suspect I may need xs.

How do you find sizing compared to Rapha or Castelli/chpt3?

you'll probably want to go down a size. Rapha medium measures at 31-33" waist for medium whereas our small is 32".

For future reference, what is the thigh compression like?
EG - Le Col on the comfort side for me, Rapha Pro Team just right, Castelli/Chpt3 too tight.

@7Mesh - any updates on the expected supply time for the shorts to UK stores, or are we looking at 2020 now?
Who would be the best UK Supplier, the likes of Sigma, Wiggle\CRC?


EDIT: Just noticed Sigma are retailing for £150 versus the £130 on your site direct.
It now has all sizes 'available' to order, but says orderd on demand, frustratingly they do not go down to XS.
Can XS be ordered to demand from your website?

Just ordered an XS pair from the 7mesh website.

lol, looks like I bought the last pair in XS, and all others are out of stock :shock:
