Need a new jersey and came across Torm clothing on another bike website (road.cc)
website is http://www.torm.cc
Anyone bought any of their stuff? was looking at the T5 or T6 (can't make out the difference except for slight styling changes)
Have read references to 'similarities' to Rapha (can't think of a way to put it without being libellous!)

Just checking out the Rapha site and it seems Torm seem to use the same material (Sportwool) I like the look of Rapha (and it's a more fashionable label) but is it worth nearly two & a half times the price?
Just re reading my first post, it's not spam honestly! - check out my other posts.
It's a serious question, I don't like wasting money.0 -

Styling apart, are the T1-4 and/or T5/6 the same? or are there differing thicknesses?0 -
There is a really uninteresting debate on this clothing on road.cc
It looks like Rapha, feels like Rapha....is it made in China also?0 -
Its a blatant Rapha rip off right down to the pocket zips and the reflective strips. To try to go one better than Rapha they put 2 zip pockets on the back which looks ridiculous.
Mine didn't fit properly although it was the correct size. Sent it back.
Shame because its half the price. Get what you pay for?Pegoretti

I think its just a styling thing. Same price ?0

'they are in fact identical apart from the cream band on the sleeves of the T5. They aren't designed as deep winter jerseys for much colder conditions, but are more of an Autumnal jersey'
There we are.0 -
I just ordered a couple of jerseys from them during the week. It is of the same quality and indeed fit as the Rapha jerseys I have. As for service, they turned up the next day, so no problems there.
Overall, its very good kit at realistic prices that looks good.
