Voler Cycling Jerseys

Just bought my first jersey from https://voler.com/Store. The jersey was shipped Monday and arrived today. Fit was perfect according to the size chart on the web site.

Great jerseys. A bit hard to deal with them if you have a club order. Long lead times and 15 unit reorder minimums. Our club got great service on our club order and even for a second order a few weeks later. A year later we have a few new members but till we get 15 we are SOL. However some of their deals are pretty good.

My club and their race team use Voler regularly. My only complaint is that they seem to be a little on the small side as compared to regular T-shirts, etc. so have to get the next size up a lot, at least on jerseys and jackets. If you don't have a slim physique that is (LOL).

My club used them for years, until we started having sizing issues. Seems sizes started shrinking. When they denied it, we took a new-out-of-the-bag current jersey and laid it on top of a new-out-of-the-bag one from 5 years earlier and showed them the 2-inch difference in length for the same marked size. The didn't have an explanation, and we found another vendor.

I did like their fabrics, though.

Interesting. I like Voler just fine; I have more than a few, but I think their mediums are around the larger mediums I have on my rack. I find they are a loose club fit. Great for when I'm up a few pounds, almost baggy when I'm in my thinner zone (which isn't all that thin, really)

I looked into ordering custom from them, but they were more expensive, had high minimums, and counted every variant as a separate item, so if you wanted long and short sleeves you needed to hit two minimums order sizes.

I absolutely love their California socks, and I've purchased a few of their womens shorts for my wife. She likes them, and they look really sharp.

One of my favorite jerseys is a Voler. Good fit and quality.

I'm of the same mind as you. I want to love Voler, especially since they are a Californian company and they deserve our support. Quality is fine, fabric is good; only issue I have is the fit of their bibs. They do run slightly baggy in the legs, or at least the pair I got. All my other bibs fit really snug and tight, as I like them. The Voler bibs are not tight/firm/however you want to phrase it.

The absolutely best fitting bibs I've found are by Garneau, followed closely by Hincapie bibs. Capo are pretty good too, but their "graphics" are boring. Have some Castelli too, which fit good, but I'm not sure I like the low cut in the front. The Volver are the baggiest of any. My Voler jersey fits fine, as do my skin suits, (for TTs).
