    .....Al's a more smart/casual rider.

  • Random question, but why is there no T9 or T10 jersey?

  • A couple of designs didnt make it to production and we didnt want to confuse the situation internally by changing the numbers of those that did.
    Expect those numbers to be filled in at sometime.

  • 'Anyone heard Torms fabric suppliers won't give them access to the fabric they use any more? Is someone deliberately shutting doors for them or am I reading too much into this?'

    Slamming them I would say.

  • So there's a chance there'll be no more re-stocks? That's a shame...been waiting to see the 'Out of Stock' change on the T7's for a little while now!

    Business as usual, nothing changes for you guys and we will continue to grow our range organically.
    We will simply source loyalty elsewhere.
    Me and Al have another delivery due in this month which will be short zip jerseys and long sleeve base layers, including a few new ones! The delivery after that will be in a couple of months and will include the T7, T5 and some more new ones !

    Care to elaborate?

  • Are all Torm jerseys the same thickness?

    Finding mines a little warm for this recent sun!

  • Care to elaborate?

    Sounds to me like other producers are strong-arming the suppliers.....

  • Care to elaborate?

    Sure, the supplier of the fabric we use has said that despite 4 years of collaboration and supplying us with the fabric they can no longer let us have access to it, it will now only be available to their biggest cycling jersey client. Make of it what you will but if we wanted to make horse riding jerseys, golf tops or football shirts with it then no problem....but not cycling jerseys.

    No need to be alarmed though...we've got plenty in stock and will be using a similar fabric when we run out !

    Yep, all 170gsm SportWool...we use the T7 when the weather gets in the 80s as it has a long zip for better air conditioning!

  • Yup gonna order one in white soon :)

    cheers

  • ^^^ Well that's just not cricket. Good luck to you. There's space for quality kit at a nice sustainable price.

    surely there's anti-competition laws against this sort of thing ? I mean, I thought the only really legal way to do that would be to buy the supplier and bring it all inhouse

  • No. Exclusivity deals are normal.

  • I've been wearing my T1 and T2 for about a year now and they're both in great shape still. Took the T1 to L'eroica last October and it was a bit warm, but over here they're spot on.

    Any insight into the new fabric you'll be using? Heavier/lighter weight? Same durability?

  • I'd vote for keeping the same fabric weight. My jerseys are perfect for anything but the hottest days.
    I reckon a lighter weight summer jersey might be good but then would there be an issue with pockets ripping at stitching etc?

    Fabric will still be merino SportWool, similar weight and durability, me and Al are testing them right now

    It's the weave/materials that produce the strength in the fabric not just the weight, so along with appropriate reinforcing a lighter fabric can work well.

  • Any chance of a Ladies cut?
    (apols if mentioned above, cba reading)

    We do have plenty of women wearing our jerseys but me and Al realise they wont suit all. Its something that we will continue to work towards.
