IT'S YOUR JOB TO ORGANISE THE TEAM APPAREL?
Corporate Wear
We create and provide all varieties of custom clothing for corporate needs, ranging from running and cycling apparel to jackets and T-shirts tailored everyone.
Running Gear
Whether your team is hosting a local fun run or an extreme event, we have the perfect running gear for any occasion.
Cycling Kit
From design to final delivery, we offer a comprehensive selection of premium cycling apparel.
School Team Gear
Your school deserves top-notch cycling equipment for your students, built to endure and featuring simple ordering systems that won’t break the bank.
As a local supplier, we can lighten your workload.
Organising the team apparel can be really hard. Like, where do you start? How do we sort out everyone’s sizes? Which tricks of the trade get names and logos looking impressive, not awkward? How can we feel the thickness and texture of the cloth? (It’s hard to do that on a computer screen!) Will the stuff turn up on time!? Will it fit?
The person asked to organise the team kit is usually busy with lots on their plate.
Ask anyone who’s been charged with this task before, and you’ll hear how it can be an absolute nightmare! It is very common for things to go wrong.
THINGS THAT JUST NEED TO BE RIGHT!
Gear that turns up in the right sizes
Your sponsors logos are correct
The pockets are easy to access
The stuff turns up on time for your event!
The colours look good even when stretched
Your burden is heavy because if ANY of these go wrong – you'll get the blame. And that's not fair.
You need a competent team apparel supplier. One that’s local and has a reputation to uphold.
We’ve been in that awkward place … you’ve ordered the team apparel and things go wrong. Especially when dealing with places far away. We created Joyride to make your job easier.
James became frustrated that he couldn’t get the team gear he wanted, how he wanted it, and when he wanted it. Roadblock after roadblock. It was stuffing up team performance, and got to the point where it was affecting his sleep! Then James realised that if he had this issue, then others did too.
Being a former aircraft engineer, he had key knowledge on how to deliver products reliably, so that they would arrive on time, and too strict specifications.
In 2013 he teamed up with fellow Cantabrian Marc Prutton, an elite cyclist and professional coach. Marc knows precisely how to boost an athlete’s performance with clothing. He knew that New Zealand needed custom apparel that really performs.

Our APPAREL FANATICS
Design flair. Performance driven. Technology textiles.
Inspired by the finest European labels, Joyride has refined those designs further and uses superior high-tech fabrics to give you a world-class look, feel and performance.
“Truly innovative gear, on time and on spec”
— Sam Kaant, Team Manager
Local Design. Local Sizing. Local Delivery.
Not everyone knows where to start when organising team apparel. What textile to use? How do the sizes translate? What choice of cuts? Who designs it? What will it cost? Will it turn up on time? What’s the deal with stitching? What happens if the quality is shoddy? Will bad choices disappoint the team? On top of that, those who are given the job of organising the team apparel tend to be busy people with a lot of things on their plate.
“We’ve been doing this for ten years and are really committed to making the process easy for you”
— James Mander
“Joyride exceeded my expectations in every way”
— Ben | Fitness Locker
“Because they are local and engaged in the sport, they give more f***s about getting things right”
— Alex Mann, Club Member

Safe Economic Sense
The PR and team-building payback of a well-presented team can be tens of thousands of dollars. But you want the cost decision to be safe
The average local team is buying for only a dozen team members. So, the same high-tech kit off the rack from other brands could cost ($2,500). Then the typical cost for a good design would be another $800, custom setup and printing at least ($500) and depending on how you value your hourly time the management cost will be at least $1,200 - so the cost of team gear can easily exceed ($5,000). And the cost can escalate further if the gear is wrong.
Our regular price for 12 kits including design, print and management can start from $1850. That’s all up! (including design, printing, production, and most of the heavy lifting to manage the order.
