eBay thermal gear

Hi, has anyone tried those Chinese thermal Jerseys and tights selling on eBay for around £50?

The descriptions say they are fleeced lined, just wondered if they we're up to much?

I bought a jersey and short set for the summer and although the shorts aren't that great the coolmax jersey is still going very strong.

Cheers for the input.

Hehe, just bought and received a set of these. Only worn once in the rain so was absolutely drenched so can't really say a lot at the mo. I was totally impressed with the fit as I wanted something really close fitting and they make me look really cool so I'm happy :P Pad not as good as some of the other chinese ones but not far off. Will road test a bit more but on first impressions I would buy again, depends how many washes it lasts though.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess riding in the rain is a little unfair as a road test.

Are both the jersey and tights fleece lined?

My Chinese coolmax jersey has been in the wash plenty and still looks good.

I wouldn't, say it was lined as in another layer, but a thick piece of polyester brushed on the inside to give the fleecey effect. It's thicker. and looks and feels much better than club kit I have. The bottom of the legs have silicone gripped stuff the pockets are deep but quite high up. I ordered small on both. I'm 5'6. and height of bids is great, I weigh 145lbs. The top is snug think my chest is 37in but on the short side. Hope that helps

Doesn't sound too bad.

Can you let me know which seller you get them from?
