Took the plunge on my first Aliexpress order ever at the end of last year. I wanted some cheap bits for commuting and winter riding and had heard fairly good things about Spexcel. Ordered an olive wind gilet, a sleeveless base layer and a pair of their cargo bibs. It arrived today and I have to say I’m really impressed with the quality and fit.
I went for large in everything as they seem to have updated their sizes to be more in line with euro stuff. The gilet and bibs fit very similar to my rapha equivalents in medium with the base layer being a bit narrow across the back but otherwise fine.
The shorts have nice grippy hems on the legs and the inside of the pockets have subtle retro-reflective details.
I think my favourite part though has to be the motivational messaging on the tags: "Surprise and Excellent" ; "Care of your feelings"
