Patagonia: orders due Monday, try on items in lodge tomorrow during lunch

Quick reminder that our final Patagonia order of the season is closing Monday – details below. We will have a few sample items in the Taconic from 11-1 tomorrow to try on for sizing.

Details:

  • These items do not replace the red and black team jackets. We created this program for access to affordable, high-quality layering pieces to go under those jackets.
  • Patagonia was chosen because the pieces are high quality enough to be handed down many times, and they offer compelling discounts to make their gear available to teams.
  • Our team items include Capilene base layers, fleece (1/4 zip, full zip, and vests) and nanopuffs. All items will be embroidered or screenprinted with the blue Catamount logo (part of our agreement with Patagonia) – we cannot offer the items without a team logo.
  • Items are ~30% less than retail cost (including nifty Catamount Alpine Racing embroidered logos and screenprinting).
  • The deadline for this order is 1/6 and items will be delivered by the end of January.
  • You will see limited availability as many fall/winter items are backordered at this point (Patagonia reserves a set number of each item to be sold at team discount prices each season and once those are gone, they’re gone) – incentive to make sure you get in on the September round next year!
  • Items should only be ordered for racers and coaches.

Please read through the “READ THIS FIRST” sheet first and, after you have read that sheet twice, feel free to reach out to jamie.f.cheney@gmail.com with any questions.
