What is Girya?
Girya is the Russian word for kettlebell. Girya is also now the brand name I will be using for all of my kettlebell clothing designs. I looked around for kettlebell themed clothing and couldn’t find much except for a few generic pictures of kettlebells or a picture of some guy doing a bent press etc. That and some trainers and gym owners that had shirts advertising their business. I needed more than that so I met with a couple of artists to get some designs created that I think the majority of kettlebell users will appreciate. Thus Girya Nation was born.
What are your shirts made of?
At this time all of my shirts are 100% cotton because it just feels good on your skin and breathes well, especially when working out. I try to always use pre-shrunk cotton shirts but sometimes I can only get the regular 100% cotton and that will be noted in the description of the shirt. I’m using Jerzees shirts at the moment because they fit well and are great workout or casual wear shirts. No pretty lacey things, bows, or ribbons. They’re simple and get the job done, just like the kettlebell.
Do you have any more designs coming?
Yes. I have a few artists that I contract with and I plan to steadily release new designs. If you are an artist with a good design I will pay you for it if I like it and decide to use it. Even you are a not an artist but have a good idea I would like to hear it and I will compensate you if I use it. Sending me ideas or artwork is not a guarantee of payment, if I like it I will contact you and we will go from there. Obviously the theme has to involve kettlebells so please no drawings of the Cabbage Patch Kids or Barney. Click here for details.
You pay for artists, how about models?
Sorry, I’m not paying for models at this time but I am going to put up a photo gallery for all to see and admire. Click here for details.
Who are you anyway and why should I wear your shirts?
Because they’re cool. And kettlebells are cool. 1+1=?? If you need guidance on your clothing choices from overpaid athletes you can find it at www.nike.com.
How do you handle returns?
Returns are no problem, I only ask that you don't wash and dry the shirt or wear it around all day before you decide that it is the wrong size. If you need a different size just send it back to me with a note of what the deal is and I'll either exchange it for a different size or refund you depending upon your request. You can also email me at jason@giryanation.com if you have more questions or need further assistance. |
