great question ... I'd say the quality is on par or even better than others I own. I have one Nashbar jersey that I really like, and the FLAB jersey is definitely a little better. The FLAB jersey beats the rest of the jerseys I have hands down. No quality issues here, provided they hold up to use
I have really wanted one of the Lanterne Rouge jerseys - the current one even more than the last one - but getting my preferred fit is a hassle with overseas shipping when I'm guessing.

Since you've got one of their jerseys, is there enough give in their design where you could size down a size or is it very true to size? I like a bit of compression in my jersey on longer rides, especially if its windy, and that makes ordering a bit tough. With Pactimo I size down one or two sizes depending on the material, but with Twin6 I can't or I get strangled, and that's just American manufacturers.in all

I hope all of this is helpful.
I was somewhat hesitant to order it too, because of the return issues, but went ahead and did it anyway. I'm glad I did. I would encourage you to get measured (or measure a favorite jersey as I did) and check it against the size charts. I'd also tell you to email them with any size questions because, like I mentioned, they were quick with a reply (though it was the following day because I emailed them after hours over there).
I'll definitely be ordering again from them

That's pretty much the information I was looking for, thanks. I probably talked around the question a bit.
