Hi, has anyone any experience with moremile cycling tops?

I am looking for a couple of long sleeve tops to see me through the winter and they seem to fit the bit, cheap as well.

Are they cheap for a reason?

Cheers

Mark

    Don't know about their cycling tops but their running and cycling socks are excellent.

    I picked up a short sleeved one in TK Maxx for less than a tenner.

    I only use it for the commute but it does the job okay. Dunno about the long sleeved versions, but I wouldn't choose mine for winter rides as its quite thin and wouldn't give enough insulation.

    They're cheap and you get what you pay for.

    Don't entirely agree with that.

    £13 for a More Miles top and, say, £70 for a Nike TDF Yellow replica.

    Is the Nike 7 times better. Doubt it very much and I guess if you happen to be a particular shape the Nike could be as uncomfortable as any other jersey inlcuding the More Miles.

    At £13 they are worth a punt, you can always return it and get your money back.
  • Thanks for the replies.

    Sorry I should have been more specific, there is a winter long sleeve top at the bottom of the page on the link for £15.

    I would hope that this would be a bit thicker, due to them advertising it as a winter top.

    Also, I have heard good things about their running clothes as well.

    I am going to order one to see what it is like, I will report back once I have tested the top out.

    Thanks again for the replies.

    I have one of their long sleeve tops, don't think it's the winter top though. I find the sleeve length quite short on it which is annoying as the sleeve ends are elasticated so it tends to pull up a bit.

    otherwise top seems fine but is definitely on the cheaper side

    Odd how there is no description of what it is made from
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles
