Okay, I get the Women of Color, but what is the “T” and “F”?

what, no b’s (butches)? And how does the trans work? Is that for women who identify as men or men who identify as women (or both)? If that’s the case, why not just allow dudes too and not discriminate? I’d rock your kit just to be supportive.

At this time, as in all times in our history, TLC is focused on creating spaces for people who may feel disenfranchised by traditional cycling infrastructure. As there are a variety of vehicles already for men within cycling, specifically cis gendered white men, we feel that our development resources are best focused elsewhere!
If you like our kit, we’d love for you to head over to the Laser Cats and Such store (http://www.lasercatsandsuch.com/), where apparel in many styles is available for purchase! We love seeing people far and wide enjoying the kit!

Yeah, I think you meant cisgendered, but that’s okay. I also apologize if you thought I wanted to be on the team, on rereading my comment I can understand why you mistook it. I just wanted a kit to be supportive of you.
For the kits (I’ve got mine picked out), they’re Unisex sized, but do they size women? My wife is on our team (fortunately we’re a small town team so we support and appreciate ladies) and has a team kit, but her large is impossibly tight on me and I wear a men’s large pro-fit. I’m thinking I should go XL on the bibs and jersey just to be safe. Yes?

The kit tends to run in a race-cut, so you might want to consider sizing up! Most of us on the team find the kits pretty true to size on the sizing chart, though some of us size up on the bibs. We also recommend contacting our kit designer directly, as she’ll be happy to answer fit questions, too. http://www.lasercatsandsuch.com/contact
Thanks again for your support!
