Anyone have experience/review of this kit or even the brand–good, bad, or indifferent? Opp’ty to buy them with local monogramming but I’ve never used Voler kit before. thanks.
I don’t know about their trisuit in particular but overall their stuff is pretty solid.
I like their regular bike/bib shorts. Good quality stuff.
I have race up to 140.6 in mine and had no issues also use their jersey and bibs daily…good stuff
.
bike/bib shorts 1st rate. Not my ultimate top favorite, but pretty close and 1/3 of the price…
My college team has used them (I purchased the clothing as an alumni member). I easily have over 10,000 miles in their cycling jerseys (short, tri top, sleeveless and long sleeve), vests, arm warmers. All excellent gear. I also have less mileage in their cycling skinsuits, tri suits, tri shorts and shorts, with no problems. Their zipper broke in my vest and winter long sleeve jersey, they were quality zippers, but huge mileage, tons of machine washing, eventually caused a couple issues. I called voler up, and they said mail the garments back and we will fix them for free. I received in the mail a week later two repaired, like new garments.
Huge recommendation.
If you’ve ever seen anyone racing in Hammer Nutrition kit, it’s nearly all Voler. Good stuff, IMO. I’ve got some tri shorts that are about 12 years old that I still ride on the trainer. Not on par comfort-wise with the likes of DeSoto Forza level gear, but definitely worth the money and will last a long time.
I’ve spent this year in hammer voler stuff. Like people said it lasts. I’ve hit the deck pretty hard a couple of times I have crashed and my shorts and top have held up nicely. Can’t complain with that.
I have one of thier full suits and some of their tri shorts. Quite nice. The legs on the full suit are short, but that doesn’t bother me. I race shorter distances.
I’ve been riding in Voler more than anything else for the past fifteen years, mostly cycling clothing (as opposed to tri), and I like them a lot. Great products, great service.
One thing about their tri line that I’m not a huge fan off is the scant shoulder coverage. The shoulder straps are barely an inch wide and the shoulder blade area is uncovered, racer-back style. Personally I prefer a top with a little more fabric.

My first trisuit was a voler “sample”, I think I paid like $40 for it. IMO it’s the best material and wearing suit I’ve owned vs. my 2XU and LG. My only complaint was the one I had din’t have any pockets. The designs they had a few years back were much better than the bland looking ones of today (I had a green/black and gray diamond plate one) and I’ve begged them to bring something similar back. Overall, good quality stuff!
ive used their stuff for years in cycling races and have loved it (other than their gloves which are awful). this past year getting back into tris i ordered their two piece and it was great. used it for sprints, olympics, and an ironman. held up well.
