Team JL ambassadors have a wide variety of experiences with rowing. From rowing and coxing to coaching, and from youth to masters, our ambassadors are all throughout the rowing community. Because of their years of experience, we asked our ambassadors what their favorite piece of JL gear is. See how they responded below!
"It fits very well, and the design is one of the best on the site. The material is really comfortable, especially throughout the summer months, where a usual uni sticks to you. They still feel breathable and don’t impact your motion. They also dry very quickly, so they become their most comfortable nature quickly." -Jack H.

"The fleece long sleeve hi-viz top is my all time favorite, it keeps me nice and warm but also is super breathable. The inside is super soft and the outside material keeps me dry. The team unis from JL are unbeatable. I love how you can customize the fit to your liking and the quality is always super high." -Sofia P.

"The vests are so practical and comfortable to row in They are just perfect to take the edge off a drizzly or a chilly morning, and ever so easy to slip off as needed mid row. Fun print trou always make me smile. Why not wear something fun to make every day in the boat feel like a vacation from the ordinary." - Claudia P
"That vest is one of my all-time favorites pieces of clothing... perfect for a light layer here in NC. They are great for any outdoor activity - and the TeamJL colors and design are always fabulous." -Jennifer T.
"Hands down, the custom, minus-2-inch-inseam unisuit is my all-time favorite JL gear! I wear them year around as a base layer when it's cold and as an outer layer wen it's hot. The ability to request a shorter leg length makes a perfect fit." -Kevin F.
"My fave is the pineapple pattern from a previous ambassador collection. The fit is great and the color and pattern is unique. It’s my most complemented rowing gear." -Holly W.

"It feels ready natural to row in you can just move like you want." -Daan B.

"Not only are the navy/aqua/yellow colors fun, but the design is just so appropriate for rowing, too. While lines and angles are part of the science of the sport, so are curves and fluid swooshes, too. And that tiger pattern on the side of the uni: it’s tattoo-worthy. I’ve been a JL Racing ambassador for six years, and have been wearing JL rowing kit since the early 1990s.This year’s kit fits so well and is so comfortable, and it ranks with some of the most fun-looking rowing kit I own." -Greg K.
"While I will always love unis, I have also fallen in love with the racerback tanks. These tanks are super comfortable, lightweight, and have a great cut! They are also super versatile and you are likely to see me wearing one rowing, running, riding my bike indoors or just out at about in the summer." -Shannon K.

"I love the JL trou in general but I love this one especially because it has a lot of pink so I usually wear it on pink Wednesday. The fit is good, and I like that the fabric is soft." -Asher R.
"I need Hi Viz as a club rule. It is much more fun to have a great design as well to be fun and make people notice me and my JL Kit!! The fit and comfort are great." -Laurence K.
"I love the feel when I wear this and I don't mean the stitching I mean what it represents. I wasn’t always a fan of wearing long sleeves while I train. However, the long sleeve tech shirt is very comfortable to wear it keeps you warm, dry and motivated." -Christian G.
