“I'm in the US and I ordered April 27th. Received my jacket May 2nd. Thought that was very quick coming all the way from the UK!
Loved the 50" Tor jacket. Beautiful deep coral pink, matched my monitor's rendering of the color very precisely. And like everyone else I appreciated those black side panels!
Fabric and sewing quality were wonderful, as expected.
I bought the jacket for 3-season use in the Pacific Northwest. I wore it riding last week for the first time. Daytime temps were about 13 degrees C / 55 F, so I was comfortable and not too hot. I don't have much experience with breathable garments, plus I don't typically sweat much. All I can report is that at the end of my 1.5 hour ride, I was dry and warm but not hot, which was probably the intended result.
The 50" jacket mostly fit me. My measurements:
Chest 125 cm / 49"
Waist 114 cm / 45"
Hips 135 cm / 53"
Arm length 76 cm / 30" (measuring from back neck bone to wrist)
Height 170 cm / 5' 7"
Weight 114 kg / 17 stones / 250 pounds
The jacket was snug around the upper hip, but not too tight. I think it was about right, actually.
Chest and neck were looser, but given my measurements, I expected that. I was very pleased that the top of the jacket fitted so well, without bagginess.
Sleeves were extremely long, though! (More precisely, when my arms and hands are hanging down my sides, the sleeves extend about 2 cm / 3/4" past my fingertips!)
The sleeves are long on the FLAB model as well, though. Is that just the way cycling jackets are normally designed? I wasn't expecting the sleeves to be so long. If I could alter the sleeves myself, I would, but since I don't have a serger, I'm just going to live with this.
All in all, the Tor is a wonderful jacket. I'll definitely order more clothes from FLAB in the future!”
“Never have to worry about not having your size and customer service is absolutely first class. Would prefer if things were a little more affordable but they are no more expensive than other big name brands. Def my first stop when looking for new kit.”
“Great cycling jersey. Good fit and no chafing or riding up. I’m a 41 chest and ordered this in 42 and another design in 44 - both fit well , the 44 is a little more comfortable though.”
“You have become my primary supplier for bicycling clothing with great quality gear, consistent fit, reasonable prices, and rapid delivery to my house in the US.”
