Can anyone recommend a good reasonably priced supplier for running
vests? We have managed to find plenty of advertisements and companies
for tee shirts but not for running vests.

Hi Anita

We get our running vests (in airtex honeycomb something or other) from Chris
Meldrum at John Roberts, who gives us a very competative price. Our vests
(although we do usually order quite a few at a time) I think work out at
well under £10, although I could be wrong on that one. Phone Chris on 01253
878 000.

Alternatively try David Talbot at MVI on 01462 684 008 - good luck in any
case.

With regards to breathable running vests, you could try Bourne Sport
([url]http://www.bournesports.com[/url]). They handle the sales and printing, and are
open to negotiations with regards to discounts!

We pay about £11-£12 for a Viga running vest (very good for the price as I
run myself) with one colour print, though the cost can be reduced by buying
a cheaper running vest.

Hi Anita

I have been reliably informed of two suppliers we have used in the past to
provide running vests. Contact either Alan at Photofit, 0207 336 8911.
They are based in Kings Cross and are very good, their prices are
reasonable.

The other contact is Chris Meldrum at John Roberts, 01253 878 000.

Hope this helps!

We got a graphic designer to do our design and source the running vests and
the price for both worked out to the same.

Hi Anita

We have used Mystic Print and Design, 01803 214705, e-mail:
[email]mystic.pd@virgin.net[/email] for 2years for the Flora London Marathon for t-shirts
and vests. Vests £3.10 each and T-shirts £3.20 each inlcuding printing costs
dont know if origination costs. The vests though are in t-shirt material not
in a breathable fabric which would be best. If anyone knows anywhere for the
breathable vest please let me know.

They are good though if you are trying to keep the costs down.

Kind regards
