Default Custom Team Kits

I foolishly volunteered to handle the clothing order for my club. We are looking at the possibility of changing suppliers because we are not really happy with our current order. Does anybody have any recomendations for manufacturers? It looks like in the United Sates the following people are the main players:

Voler
Santini/Tscyclingusa
Champion
Pactimo
Squadra/Castelli
Hincapie
Verge
Customsublimation
Sugoi
Giordana
Garneu
Vermarc
Fernando Carvalho
Tinelli

Am I missing anybody good? Do you know anything about these companies?

Thanks

Both Voler and Squadra have made our team kits in various years, and frankly I was pleased with both. The Squadra shorts were especially good, though.

My team orders from Champion. It seems that nobody in our team was satisfied with the orders. The stitchings on the seams are coming off and the arm warmers slide off easily. For me, I like the material (comfortable before riding), but when you are drenched with sweat, it doesn't dry up as easily as others.

The year before I joined, the team ordered from Voler. I have one of the Voler jerseys from that order, and I like using it for the winter or in the morning, it has a really durable material.

But anyways, the problem with the armwarmers get annoying, we talked to the Toyota United team earlier this season and they had the same problem. It's worse when you are skinny too.

I've used Giordana before. Seemed like a good company.
