| 76. You have converted me to a hat person,
well almost….have been wearing the new peaked skull cap since I received
it late Nov/early Dec…not a stylish hat, who really looks good in skull
cap, it does work well. I do love my Robena wear. Did you notice I have
on my orange winter Robena running turtleneck for tonights run. E.B. Hamilton Ont. 75. Received it yesterday, fantastic and perfect. Thanks for everything. Cheers J.K. Ontario 74. I still wear my Robena tank top in the colder weather but I use it as an outer layer to keep my core warmer. I just love the back pockets!! Actually I'm a fairly newbie to Robena. I have seen your products at the expos but only purchased in 2010 and in 2011. I'm definately hooked!! U.B. 73. I bought my jersey and yarms a few years ago and there have been many runs where I was so happy to be able to start out with long sleeves and then, ta-da, be wearing a sleeveless shirt! Pure genius! E.P. 72. Love the material and I am really happy that I finally found a headband that fits me and holds my hair. You could count on me to make an order soon for a jersey with long sleeves or an other headband ! LOVE the color ! You are giving such a great service ! C.B. Quebec Back to top 71. Right before the race, a dad came up to us and said: «My little girl saw you earlier, and she thought you were so beautiful!» - A woman came up to us before the race just to tell us that our tops looked amazing, that they were joyful and colorful... So we gave her the address for Robena’s website! - It was my first race ever, so I wanted to make sure I looked great and felt great. With my colorful - and comfortable! - Robena top on, I felt pretty, confident and empowered. I had wings! ... and I finished with my best time to date! I.T. Quebec 70. Hi I rec’d it early this morning...LOVE IT!!!!!!!! A.G. Richmond Hill, Ont. 69.....permission to put our picture of our AWESOME AMAZING OUTSTANDING TERRIFIC Robena shirts (Pixel Flowers) onto your website. That would be great!! we both love your shirts.... so go ahead, post our pic! WOOHOO! S.S. Hamilton, Ont. 68. BTW: we were out at Confederation Park last night, and a bunch of teenage girls did fist pumps as we skated by, saying “Flower Power” tee hee. C.E. Hamilton, Ont. 67. wore my 'pixel flowers' jersey and long yarm on Sunday at Ironman Coeur d'Alene. If there'd been a prize for best jersey, I would have won. I must have had 40+ comments on it, including lots of guys. It was a big hit. M.H. BC Back to top 66. It’s here and they are FABULOUS!! The fit is perfect. I’m wearing mine around the office and getting some pretty good comments…’name dropping’ your website, of course! My sister has just stopped by and tried hers on, the fit is perfect for her as well. Thanks for your advice re: sizing. C.E.Hamilton, Ont. 65. I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for your amazing cross-backs and share with you how their versatility really made my life easier last week. First my week started with me promising to teach my daughter how to play tennis. I don't know if you have ever tried to teach a young person how to play tennis but, let me tell you, it is much easier if you have A LOT of balls (much less chasing stray balls and much less bending over to pick them up!!!)! I wore one of your cross backs with the large pockets in the back, where I could store up to 8 balls! It saved me from MUCH bending and running around. Then later in the week I had to take my car into my mechanic for new brakes but I also had a women's bible study that morning as well. My church is about 5 km from my mechanic's garage so I thought that I would just drop the car off and then run to the church, but my dilemma was what to wear - what could I run in that would also be suitable for church? Then again your cross-back saved the day! I wore it with my running shorts and I just rolled up my dressy black walking shorts and the yarms, and stored them in the back pocket. So, after I got to the church I just sneaked into the washroom, changed shorts put on the yarms and I looked perfectly suitable! Many people commented on my lovely summer top! So there you go - your clothes really are for the busy woman (and not just the runner and cyclist)! M.L. Ottawa 64. We received many compliments and it was too bad that the sun was not out as the sparkles would have been great in the sunshine! J.H. BC 63. Loved the top! Will be wearing with pride for my Yukon runs...Michele, expect orders! T.T. BC Back to top 62. I love my riding wear that can double as evening wear! L.W. BC 61.

Just wanted to let you know I love all my robena clothes. I’ll be ordering lots more. S.O. BC 58. ...just received and LOVE THEM!!! Thank you so much!!! J.H.

Ont. 55. ...there’s a woman in Hamilton who makes really great cycling/running jerseys, tanks and stuff.... technical fabrics in really cute colours and patterns.... made locally, by her and comes in all sizes, for all bodies.... really like the way the jerseys and tanks are a slight bit longer and have great big pockets in the back. Alas, it is only for the lasses! I just love her stuff and like to pass on the information to all my run/bike buddies. Trijenn 54. I absolutely love my Robena sleeveless jersey.(And removable arms. How cool is that!!)I bought it for running (Mississauga marathon.)but have already worn it cycling as well….look forward to seeing you at the Niagara Falls Marathon expo.

Ont. 53. ...we wore the jerseys that you are currently using to advertise in the Get Out There magazine at the Big Sur marathon - 8 of us....had comments all during the marathon and afterwards about how terrific the shirts are. L.R. 52. Just came back from California …..in the finishing coral I saw two ladies wearing matching Robena jerseys and sleeves - the very same pattern that is currently featured on your home page.

Ottawa 50. ...almost won a medal for the nicest top of the race...but they didn't have that category! ah ah ah...had so much compliments...it was amazing and I wanted to give it back to you!! At each 3 miles/water spots(so that's at least 7 times) people yelled: great color shirt, great style, look amazing, awesome, way to go, great look, wow, youhouuu, wow and super wow!!! It's so funny, even one of the official photograph told me that I was born to get pictured!!! I always smiled and got my thumb up! It was a very hard race, the first 12 km was uphill but I felt great and even if I was alone in the desert, runners were chatting with me because of YOU !!! I just love to make people react and smile at me during the race, it gives me energy!!! I knew, I needed a new yarm for that race! Thanks again Michelle and continue your great job! I sure have great and bright memories! J.L. Quebec 49. I'm a friend of M.R.
