The ORR club is placing an order for wool jerseys which will be made for us by Woolistic. Men's and women's jerseys will be available in short and long sleeves. We're also offer the jerseys in the new, superlightweight wool introduced by the SIR club last year.

This year we are offering the ORR jersey in a new green color. The
design has been finalized and will not be changed.

Sizing
I (Leslie) will recommend women ordering a size up. I'm 5'3 and typically wear a women's small. In Woolistic, I wear a women's medium and it is a trim/short fit on me (which I like).
Please review sizing charts carefully. Sizing jerseys are available to try on at River City Cycles in Portland, Oregon. Because the jerseys are custom, all sales are final. So please, double check current sizing samples to insure that you are ordering the correct size. Orders cannot be cancelled after the Order Date has closed. Fit on these jerseys is relatively slim. If you're between sizes, we recommend you size up.
Washing and Care Instructions
Do NOT put these jerseys in the dryer. Use a mild detergent. Turn inside
out and put washer on "wool" setting if available. Use gentle agitation
only. Cold water washing is preferable. If you're worried about
shrinkage, we recommend sizing up.
Dry a wool jersey after washing by laying it flat on a clean towel. Roll the towel up with the jersey inside, pressing out excess water. Unroll the jersey, and lay it flat on a dry towel in a warm, ventilated location until dry.
Store a wool jersey after it is completely dry in a zip lock plastic bag to protect the jersey against moths.

Notes from Woolistic
With each jersey we sell we put wash instructions sheet in there. (see
attached! please print). Also its sewn in the side seam. We go overboard
on the details but seems some people just like to be lazy and ignore it all
and later they come crying. I always tell people 'WOOL IS HAIR!' LITMUS
TEST: if in doubt about soap ask yourself 'would I wash my own hair with
TIDE in the shower?' that will stop most people cold in their tracks. Ugh
imagine how ratty ones hair would be, all dried out like some stray.
Detergents we recommend:
- Ivory Snow (Proctor and Gamble) as it is endorsed by the Woolmark company. Available at most major supermarkets.
- Ecover Delicate Wash - Woolmark endorsed. Awesome stuff. I buy it at Whole Foods. Amazon sells it also. Probably other places too.
- Kookaburra Woolwash - heard its good.
I read this on the internet below:
While Woolite, by virtue of its name, makes you think that it is the best choice for washing wool carpets or clothing, it may not get the job done as well as any of a handful of substitutes. This is mainly because Woolite still has an alkaline pH, which gets into natural wool fibers and strips them. In addition, Woolite is expensive and does not disclose its ingredient list.
