Aldi - colour runs

[Piemaster]

Washing. From the thread title I was hoping for something more interesting, like a charity colour run

That's what happens when you buy cheap shite

I don't normally reply to trolling like this. But in your case I will make an exception

Aldi have a reputation for supplying good quality inexpensive bike gear. Not everyone can afford stuff more expensive than Aldi. Your comment makes you look like a conceited prick

That happened to my DHB jersey.
Went in red and white, came out red and pink
Still wore it though, under a jacket.

I've got loads of good Aldi gear and none of it has ever lost its colour like this. Maybe this was a bad batch.

Me too. I'm lucky that I could afford Rapha or whatever if I wanted to. But I buy Aldi and Decathlon as it represents, in my view, much better value

that is harsh for sure , not everybody can or wants to splash out top dollar just to look cool and trendy

It will be Giro Italia pink next time its washed ...

 

[Bollo]

And, if I'd had a shirt that ran like that I would have taken it back and got a refund or replacement. Aldi will cheerfully do that without question.

I don't think I've ever seen anybody do anything cheerfully at Aldi.

That's not Aldi though, that's moody southerners! And I grew up in Winchester! It's such a contrast here. The staff in the Aldis round here are always cheerful and friendly.

You could try 'fixing' the dye by soaking the garment in iced water.

 

[G3CWI]

I thought urine was supposed to fix dye?

In fairness, We do the Aldi shop on a Saturday morning so no one is having a good time. But if you were a proper Wintonian you'd be reeling from the news that Winchester actually has an Aldis. To balance it out they built it next to the Waitrose. Ford is in his flivver.
By strange coincidence the Bollo family is proper Manc (mum from Moston and dad from Wythenshawe) so we've done a swap. My dad thinks Winch is actually quite friendly, although he spends a good deal of time on visits down here tutting at prices.

Back On topic. If they're still comfortable and don't show your bits then I'd not worry.

I've bought plenty of cycling jerseys,and football shirts(made from the same stuff)over the years and none have run when washed. The reflective bits loosen on Aldi, Muddy Fox and other "economy" jerseys but the colour doesn't run when i've washed them,
