I recently came across Art of Tri (http://www.artoftri.com/), a new apparel company focusing on the Triathlete market. They differ from many of the others that have popped up in that it's not a spreadshirt or cafe press store, but a real apparel company. The products are 100% organic and are manufactured specifically for Art of Tri.

It's about the money!
