Thank you, Zoic!
For me, buying bike clothing has always been as easy as sticking a round block into a square hole... Or rather, a curvy me into shapeless (loose in some areas, binding in others) and uncomfortable bike tops. It's almost as though biking apparel companies think that all active women are shaped just like guys.
Then I found your Sass Cap shirt. Hallelujah! It has chest darts. Chest darts! For that reason it is easily the most comfortable and stylish bike top I have ever owned. I will now go back to my local REI and buy one (no... two!) in every color.
My hopes are pretty high that you've been thoughtful enough to create bike shorts for curvy gals, too. If so, another fan letter will soon follow. Thanks again. Have a great weekend!

Ether Short
Please do not ever stop making the Ether baggy with the removable liner. The absolute best item of clothing I have ever owned!!!! I purchased them from Performance Bike. I own the black and I am buying the grey this week.
Thanks, Darren
Dear Zoic,
I purchased two of your shirts on SteepAndCheap.com and have been utterly amazed at how they have performed. The shirt I bought was short-sleeve nylon (I think) and woven in a "waffle" pattern. I do not see this particular shirt on your website and would like to know what comparable product you could suggest.
The "waffle" weave is incredible at keeping me cool and dry while hiking and biking. It is by far the best shirt in my collection, which includes the likes of North Face, Mountain Hardwear, REI, and Cloudveil. If you still offer this style shirt and I have just overlloked it on your site, please direct me to where I can find it.
Thanks for the great product!
Sincerely, M. Nilsen
ZOIC Note- this is in reference to the Men’s Aquaduct Tee.
Zoic makes top notch clothing.
My first pair of mountain bike shorts were Zoic Vigor Delux... I wore them for 5 years before I finally wore them out. I am on the fourth year with my second pair, and now I've graduated to the Apocolypse. I just bought my second pair of Apocolypse... more riding, less time doing laundry. What a great short! I'm cursed with chicken legs and the Apocolypse fit is snug but stretchy, and the liner is very comfortably padded without looking like you have a padded liner at all. The material is very tough and very durable, and the pockets and vents are very functional.
Zoic's customer service is excellent. I had a couple questions I wanted to ask before I plopped down $75 on bike shorts and the responses from Zoic were quick and accurate (thanks Alyssa!). Excellent company with excellent products. Now if they would just carry legs and lungs I would be perfectly outfitted!
Great job Zoic... keep up the good work!

A Painful Pair
Dear Dirt Rag,
This past spring, I received an injury that put a halt to my riding the beautiful trails in Traverse City, Michigan. The injury was not the usual broken arm or leg, but a severely bruised testicle- in other words, a testicular contusion. The injury was a result of wearing no undergarments under my bathing suit while riding my "pimp" cruiser down to a prime snorkeling location. The reason I decided to write is to bring awareness to all the male riders who read this snazzy publication. Recovery from a testicular contusion normally takes a good 3 months. That was basically the entire warm season! Who wants to miss three months of riding?
So, all the male riders in the house, say yeah to support, and don't ride commando. Oh, and to any girlfriends or wives- enforce this with your man! He will thank you!

My jacket == wonderful
Just a quick thanks. Bought a Zoic fleece to replace one that had fallen to the tests of time. It was comfy, but there seemed to be consensus that the thing was too thin to be of much use once it got really cold outside -- and I'll admit, I agreed with them at the time.
However, having recently put it through some intense testing, I have to admit the following: it's warmer than my snowboarding jacket. It's true. I spent a week in Vail not long ago, where the temperature was in the high single digits. I didn't realize how warm the fleece was keeping me until I realized that I wasn't wearing a jacket; thinking what a stupid decision that was, I removed the fleece and donned my boarding jacket the next time I ventured out. The result: I froze my ass off.
So let's just say this: Zoic fleece, 1, cold-weather clothing, 0. And I can wear it in the summer, too! Genius. And after being washed several dozen times, it's just as soft and comfortable as ever. Don't know how you do it, but keep it up.
You guys are wonderful. Thought you should know.

Excellent Service
I just wanted to thank Zoic Clothing for the fast, professional, and great quality service on some repair work done to my riding shorts, RA#11291. With any luck, the snow will be off the ground and I'll be riding soon on my newly fixed shorts. I will not hesitate to recommend Zoic to my friends.
Thanks,
