BASICS

We normally use one of three different types of shirts, ATC, Club, and Gildan HC:

  1. Most of the time, it is the very popular ATC (The Authentic T-shirt), models S350 (unisex) and L350 (female) shirts.   
  2. From time to time, we do a special sublimated Club shirt with custom sizing. In 2019, that applied to Waterloo Classic and RememberRun.
  3. Even rarer are the Gildan HC 5400 and Anvil Triblend. Gildan is Fall Classic only and Triblend is case-by-case, including RememberRun 2020.

It’s important to note that due to availability, the options on the Race Roster page may be more limited than what is below.

Here are the three sizing charts for ATC, Club, and Gildan:

3. Selecting a size

Online: When you register for the race in Race Roster, you will be presented with a drop-down list of choices. Not all of the above sizes may be offered. The deadline for t-shirt order is clear in the registration process for each race.

Some events only have a limited number of t-shirts available in any given size; this will be clear through the registration process.

In a rare case where we can’t get these exact ATC shirts, we will do our best to get similarly-sized shirts. If there is a pronounced sizing difference, we will email all participants with the change and the option to switch using this process.

If applicable, after your registration, you may be able to log back into Race Roster and change your selection until two weeks out from the event. Learn how to use Race Roster editable data. This will be described on an event-by-event basis.

4. Switching your shirt

Online: Within two weeks of the event, the size you have selected is what you will get at kit pickup.

Before the race: When you show up to kit pickup, you will be given that shirt. No exceptions, and no trades.

After the race: If you didn’t receive a t-shirt, or you received a still-clean one that you want to switch, come to registration after the race to see if there are any unclaimed shirts. After the race starts, any unclaimed shirts become property of Run Waterloo and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to those whose bib clearly shows no t-shirt and no t-shirt opt out.
