Online sites for great quality jerseys?
Quote | Reply
I have a few DeSoto jerseys and like them. I also wear their shorts. But, I'd like to try and find some good quality jerseys that are lightweight and affordable. Why do you suggest?


Also, anyone buy from lead cyclist online? An ad popped up on FB for me.

I'm also interested. I get ads all the time for a budget cycling site - Pedal Clothing. https://www.pedalclothing.co/

Any experience with this one out there or others like it?

Avoid the FB ads. These are typically companies charging $40 for the same quality jerseys you can get on eBay/Amazon for $15.

The $15 eBay/Amazon jerseys aren't bad. I've sourced several for company logowear and the fabric/stitching/etc. are all good quality. They are typically a polyester wicking fabric with little stretch (easier to do sublimation printing on), similar to pro-level jerseys of the late 'oughts (vs. the stretchy, body-hugging, longer sleeved fits pros use today).

If you want actual higher end jerseys online, two options come to mind: eBay and Le Col.

eBay: Lots of auctions where folks are selling unused kit. I managed to get a new-with-tags kit from the Colavita team (Castelli jersey and bibs) for $65 last year!

LeCol.cc: They sell top-end kit factory direct. You can always find a $60 off $120 coupon either via email or by completing a ridiculously easy Strava challenge (ex. work out for 5hrs during August).

BTW, here is my opinion about bike clothing manufacturers, roughly in the order of preference:

Ale - amazing quality, awesome graphics. European sizing (meaning small)
Castelli - hit or miss. Also amazing quality. Great padding. But sizing is bizarre. I normally wear a medium bottom, large top. I ordered a team kit medium bib shorts and they were so tight I couldn't breathe. The large jersey was too tight. So then I ordered an XL jersey and it's huge on me.
Jackaroo - surprisingly good quality, American sizing, durable
Santini and Giordana - interchangeable IMO. Great graphics, European sizing
Voler - cool US based company that does a lot of custom stuff. Good mid-range. Sized larger for Americans.
Pearl Izumi - like Voler, larger fit. Though pretty durable. I have some shorts that must be nearly 20 years old that are still in ridable shape
Champion - weird fit but high quality

My favourites by a landslide are by Gobik. Just ordered a couple of Tres Pinas jerseys, I hope they are stellar - I just paid a stupid amount of shipping and duties/taxes/handling to get them here... you never know what the latter will be till it's already on route. :(
