“I really like the large sizing, the fit is good and the design good but as I am tall the legs cut in a little too much due to the length. I found the fabric to be somewhat see through so I won’t wear them in public. I did email them about the fabric as it seemed weird considering price and the rest of the product being really well made. They responded promptly saying I can return them for a refund at my cost minus postage but from Aussie it would have cost a lot to have just tried them on. They were great about the timing to return from overseas, but I wasn’t completely happy with their response saying they get good reviews which felt dismissive. I reached out initially about my surprise with the fabric used rather than just writing a negative review.”
“Fast service but the quality of the socks is questionable, most cycle socks now have support and elastic grip on arch and ankle these are just socks without any discernible sport styling.”
“I like the kit. I own a winter jersey in XL which is great. Unfortunately sizes clearly vary and short sleeved jersey in XL too large .
Having to pay to return the product put me off trying anymore kit”
Sorry you're unhappy with the Jewel bib tight fabric. It is more technically advanced than the fabric we use in our Champion tights (the original tights you mentioned). The Jewel fabric is a premium 245gsm weight compression fabric and has slightly different features to that of the Champions. The quality of our production and components has not changed and we have the same values that we have always had.
“Process of purchase and delivery was great. However lot of options in my size and preferred style was out of stock . I’m happy someone can offer cycling clothes for fat lads at the back:).”
“It was to small which was disappointing I I had ordered the correct size for me,and I was not impressed by having to pay postage to get it and send it back.”
“The cycle jersey looked ok until I had wore it a few times . The material now has pulls in it which is not what I would have expected. I am no longer using the jersey because it no longer looks good and have reverted to another one which appears to be fine. All in all I would not recommend it..”
“I really appreciate it; I'm genuinely pleased that someone took the time to consider people who are a bit larger. Riding without a bib when you're big can be a real challenge. However, the quality of the stitching on the bottom part, where it's padded, leaves much to be desired. After just two rides, the stitching was already coming undone, which is disappointing. I had to have it re-stitched. It's fine now, but it's frustrating that I had to repair a new product after only two short rides.”
“Vest is fairly good. I ordered a size larger than usual as I thought it would be good to fit over several layers. However, I didn't find it especially roomy and it is a little bit short.
I like the front top pocket. Fits either my iPhone OR keys. So wish that there was another pocket - either at waist height or chest height.”
