Chinese cycling clothes

I could need some help on sizing for new jerseys!
177 cm and 70-75kg (real life i wear t shirts in size small)
Bibs size medium (large Asian).

I bought several pairs of bibs recently from Ali / Temu in size M (Asian L) with great success on fitting.
Jerseys feel much more difficult. Any help is much appreciated! Reviews are so difficult, sometimes someone bigger than me rides small or medium, sometimes smaller riders wear same size. So either people suck at fitting or they lie  D all my current jerseys size large from DHB aeron is way way too big.
I think small to medium would fit better

This BCBE long sleeve one look really good https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005010533319747.html unfortunately it's too hot for long sleeve

We have a 05:30am groupride. even in the summer i will take a long one. so i am going to give updates

I already bought a jersey from them and pretty pleased with it! In terms of fit and quality, it's almost identical to this SPEXCEL jersey: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJlpCm6
They really need to work on their marketing and product pages because most of their product images are just basic renders but I find their designs to be really good !

I just found this on AliExpress:  | AOGDA Pro Team Aero Cycling Clothing,Short Sleeve Breathable Bike Shirts,Fast Drying Bicycle Clothing,Men's Cycling Jersey

This is one of the best sellers https://it.aliexpress.com/item/32827067778.html, suitable for 8+ hours.

I have 3 pairs of these exact shorts.  2 of them are in my shorter ride drawer and the third pair is one of the 2 pairs of shorts I took on this ride.   The problem with the Darevie is in the perineum where they start chafing that area over time

The other pair I used is YKyWbike.

Yesterday in Italy there was the GranFondo Étape Piemonte, something Tour de France-related, I guess, and the long route (140km 2800 elevation gain) was won by the absolute beast @DrakeDeuel. Seriously, go check out his YouTube channel.

But the thing that cracked me up is that he crossed the finish line wearing a DAREVIE skinsuit https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005009559379543.html.

I love the idea that even the really strong guys are using this kind of gear. Congrats to him!

Now the real question is: if we buy one too, do we instantly get faster? ahahah

Inspired by the Chinese running gear scene, turns out there's a whole bunch of stuff on Taobao available which generally seems to look pretty high quality. Great if you're in a country that Taobao ships to directly (like Aus/USA/NZ/Canada). Easiest way to shop on Taobao is through the app. Your language in the app has to be set to Chinese for most of these shops to appear.

Here's what I've found so far for higher quality gear:

Thanks so much! I still have to figure out how to log in to Taobao, so maybe it's better this way ahaha

I own an SWG long sleeved skinsuit. Got it for like 600 RMB. The material is the same as my Spexcel jersey, which is to say not great, but not terrible either. The sleeves aren't very stretchy, so I had to size up to even get into the suit.
I also ordered and returned a UKE suit. Same exact material, but I ordered a women's suit for a tighter fit and my legs are clearly way too long, not even sure how anyone could be comfortable with the length they use there.

I ordered a BCBE-ING skinsuit and the legs are too short too. Fantastic quality and fabric etc but just not long enough in the legs.

The legs are a solid 2-3cm shorter than my other MAAP, PAS etc bibs.

Hi, does anyone have any experience with the KEMALOCE bibs. I am thinking of buying this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005225331271.html. I am especially curious about the padding material.

I don't have any direct experience but it seems like an interesting product for that price, especially considering the side pockets... very interesting, I'm waiting for someone to review it, among other things it has many positive reviews on Alix

It looks like it has the same bibs as these https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005006820907190.html

I also like the lack of branding. I think I am just going to go for it. I'll let you know how they fit, and how comfortable they are. I have compared the cushioning with other products, and I think (on paper) they should be fine for longer rides also.

I bought these Kemaloce bibs a while ago:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004323174278.html

and they were dreadful. I think I threw them in the bin after 1-2 rides. Pretty sure it was an uncomfortable, tight fabric and issues with the leg grippers.

I bought these before. Absolute garbage. Horrible sizing and fit with a pad that should be used a punishment.

Ugh, wish I waited for a bit longer. I hope they are not as bad as you say, but I will see, I guess.
