PSA for a bargain merino bikey or casual jersey from CRC [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=83143 ]Kona Merino Jersey £15.00[/url]

To be honest i wasn't expecting much so ordered it on the off-chance, it's only £15 or so i thought, can't expect too much for that price surely?.
It arrived this morning and i'm really impressed with the fit and quality, 100% mapp certified merino - very soft but heavyweight merino and a perfect fit for on or off the bike - nice colour in the flesh so to speak, decent length sleeves and the large rear pocket is subtle and well hidden with a quality zip so it's not obvious it's a cycling jersey. I'm a medium, not much extra fat and somewhere between a 38" to a 40" , the medium fits as if it was tailored for me, i've just bought another three so that's my winter riding and casual jerseys sorted for the foreseeable future. I don't now how it will wash but i'll be taking care of it and not using the machine.
Thank you very much 🙂
looks nice. Do you think a 41-42 chest is a medium or large, sounds like I order large?

CRC do free returns via Collect+. Just order several sizes and send back what you don't keep.
Cheers just ordered 2 for my trip in nZ 🙂
Good spot. Got one on the way now.
Bargain, that's the winter commute sorted!

Think of it as natures way of telling you to ride more and eat less!
How can you tell STW has just raided? There's only smalls left 8)
Maybe I should have gone for large... oh well.

Or that cycling clothing is designed for malnourished dwarf labrats rather than 'men'.
I ordered medium but could be a large. Shall we reconvene next week for a swap club?
That looks nice, just ordered one! thanks for the link.
have they all sold out now? ha ha! That didn't take long!
Like the 'retro' styling; why do so many current cycling jerseys look so garish or unstylish by comparison?
I put a medium one in my basket, which was showing as in stock. When I tried to pay, CRC deleted it.
Me too!
snooze you lose. Bugger.
Me too, don't know why I bother though my wife will only shrink it to fit an infant within a month.

That will be my size then...... Ordered.
small ordered cheers
ggrrr missed out, but mrs nacho says thanks to somafunk as they had a small one left for her!
got one thanks! only small size left in stock
i suspect i'll have a spare medium in the near future 😉 the size chart linked shows I should be in a large. 🙂
All but small gone. Greedy sods.

Because retro is in fashion.
all gone 🙁

give us a shout if the medium doesn;t fit 🙂
I bought a large but I'll be sticking it on the classifieds* once I realise it's too small for me.

*for £30 😈
If anyone else gets a medium that doesn't fit I'd take it........
Yes have ordered medium, large and xl as several of the guys wanted them so there maybe some spare
Would love a medium if anyone has over ordered / got the wrong size.
Thanks,
Don't know why but reminds me of Star Trek

im a kona fan and a trekkie
dammit!
This thread has annoyed my immensely. No stock left. 🙁
I DEMAND BARGAINS.
Thank god for that. I probably would've been tempted had there been any left 🙂
"This thread has annoyed my immensely. No stock left"
Prior to that, CRC were telling you there was stock, when there wasn't.
"However due to a fulfillment issue we are unable to include Kona MAPP Long Sleeve Jersey Medium - Black/Brown in your order at this time. We are very sorry for this shortfall and for disappointing you."
Ah well, would have been a nice merino top to have, not the end of the world that I haven't got one though.
I ordered a jersey then looked around and placed another order. Got a mail (already) saying the latter has shipped, nothing on the jersey so am expecting a mail later to say they've run out.
Edit to add: Ah, Disco Stu already got the mail I'm expecting!
