Title: Club Softshells Colours Women's
Post by: DervM on November 19, 2012, 22:51:08: Only one colour is being ordered and is black by default unless another colour has huge portion of vote - also depends on availability of colours.

Not that I think it will happen, but Winberry, pink, will not be ordered :P.
