The conversation David and I had with the founder of Torm was great! He's a one man show, independent, and just wants to create high-quality stuff that fits well at reasonable affordable prices. Anyone independent who wants to drive the prices down on quality cycling jerseys is fine by me.
They are also not branding the f*ck out of them and making their customers walk around like billboards. I didn't think the jerseys looked anymore like Rapha than they did icebraker or other jerseys of a simiar ilk.
They are doing stuff that I don't think Rapha are like 2 pockets on the back and using water-resistant (not water-proof as too sweat-causing) material in the pockets. The inside is merino to wick away sweat and the outside is polyester to keep the shape.
The guy really understood the power of this forum, and was brave enough to offer David a jersey to test-ride.
I give a thumbs up!
