What Spin11 does
Spin11 is a Dublin-headquartered private company that designs, supplies, and distributes custom technical apparel for cycling, triathlon, and running clubs, as well as corporate clients and event organizers. Its core products are wind tunnel tested custom kits (jerseys, bib shorts, jackets, gilets, skinsuits, tri suits, and accessories) manufactured in Europe with premium fabrics including eVent membrane, bioceramic polyester, Super Roubaix fleece, COOLMAX yarn, and chamois pads from Dolomiti and Elastic Interface. The portfolio is structured across four collections — Sport (entry), Sport Plus (mid), Ultra (premium, Italian-made), and Carbon Elite (flagship) — each with a minimum order quantity of 5 items per style (20 for Carbon Elite) and a 50% surcharge for orders of 1-4 items.
The business operates on a custom bulk-order model: customers engage via a field sales team, receive a free professional design service, place orders with a 50% deposit, and receive delivery within 6-10 weeks depending on collection. A self-serve Team Store portal extends this to clubs of 10+ members by consolidating individual orders and payments into a single production run. An e-commerce storefront also handles individual retail accessories. Spin11 has been the Official Technical Clothing Supplier of Cycling Ireland and Team Ireland since 2013, kitting out the Irish National Team and para-cyclists, while also serving corporate clients such as PWC, Deloitte, and IKEA, and numerous Irish cycling clubs. Operations are concentrated in Ireland with UK sales coverage, supported by 1-10 employees and no disclosed external funding.
