Granny Gear Cycling Jerseys

[ianrauk]

Just bought a jersey from www.grannygear.co.uk.
A brand that's new to me. I was skeptical at the prices and quality. But decided to dip my toes and bought this one.

Took about 10 days to arrive.
Must admit, I'm pretty impressed. Good quality material. Fits good. UK style fitting rather than Italian. They cut a little corner by not adding a zip on one of the rear pockets but that's just picky.
Think I will be opening my wallet for a few more of the jerseys.

Any one else bought a jersey from the company?

Note.. I have nothing to do with this company. Just leaving a good review here.

I'm sorry but it appears they just drop ship ~£10 jerseys from AliExpress. (From their website "Our orders are dispatched directly from our suppliers in Asia.")

Better off just purchasing directly yourself. Eg.

20% off over £50 spend too. Two jerseys for £56 (based on £35 a top)👍

Happy to buy from and support a UK company at that bit extra rather then China, But each to their own.
Edit: Also cant see any of their other jersey's on that Chinese site

As am I, of course. But, they're literally just buying it from China for you and putting your address in the delivery field, and subsequently charging a 250% mark-up for the privilege.

That makes no sense. They are just a middle man charging you extra! How about I buy your next one from Ali Express and you give me £20?

As I said in my above post. I can only find that one jersey on the Chinese site. None of the others.

Problem is Ali-Express stuff is Chinese sizing, so totally inacurate

But that's exactly what you'll get from this UK company.

As I said, much prefer to order with and have the piece of mind of dealing with a UK based company.

They have some very nice jerseys (and some bloody awful ones)

Trouble is, I already have far too many cycling jerseys

That doesn't necessarily mean they are the exact same ones you are seeing on aliexpress.

Even if they come from the same factory, they may be the "seconds". Or they may just be rip-offs.

I bought a jersey from them maybe 1 or 2 year ago and was quite happy with the product. Not the greatest quality but I was not expecting top notch kit. Fair value for money IMO. It is slightly too large for me but I do not want nor need 'race' size fitting. The design was not available anywhere else, including aliexpress. Similar but not identical.
Would happily buy again, however unlikely that will be in the near future.
