Torm Jersey Longevity

Hi all,
Just wondering how well these Jerseys last? I had a new Jersey from another small independent company that is really well reviewed and I have found it has started to look scruffy after two road rides. Generally the fabric has pulled and some of the stitching has come loose (its the correct size).
I was going to get another but have decided against it. Just wondering what Torm is like.
Many thanks for any input.
Cheers,

Hi spooked,
I got a Red T1 for commuting around 6 months ago - I've wore it 5 days a week ever since (washing once per week) and have to say, the jersey is still looking as good as new.
So good in fact, that ill be ordering another one shortly in a different colour to use at the weekends, and might even get a long sleeve version for the autumn/winter.
I dont do anything special when washing - just bung it in with everything else.
Hope this is of some help - I don think you'll be disappointed if you go for one.0 -
I have three Torm jerseys now. Bought a grey one first (in the sale) in 2013, a red one in 2014 and just bought a blue one a month or so ago.
I only ever wear these now - nothing else and they get rotated. They are all still in great nick structurally, no issues what so ever. I have noticed though that the colour on the back of the grey and red ones has really washed out, probably due to being in the sun all the time :shock:
Won't put me off though, I'll still continue to buy them.0 -
There is a long thread in Road General about Torm, overwhelmingly positive is it's tone. Also with good input from Torm.0

Take some photos and email the company you bought it from, ask them to consider the issue and repair/replace it if it's only been 2 rides...they should welcome the feedback as they might not be aware of the quality issue and then it gives them the chance to put things right for you...if they want to.Hi all,

I wear a long sleeve summer base layer (which gets changed!) - it gets most of the sweat so the jersey is still pretty much untouched and smelling fresh after 5 days.0 -
