A mixed bag, but overall good
Now that I've logged about 12-15 hours in this kit I feel I'm finally ready to review it.First, the fit. This will be the biggest issue for most. I'm 5'9" @ 220lbs and picked up a XXL since the bibs seem to run about a size small based on their fit chart. The bibs fit quite well. The jersey on the other hand is a bit on the big side. Since I carry most of my weight in my torso, it actually worked out well, but if you have more normal proportions, the jersey will like feel somewhere from half a size to a full size too large. My biggest complaint with the fit is the grippers on both the legs and the arms; they're on the tighter side and don't stretch nearly as much as the rest of the garments.For quality, the fabric seems just as thick as some of my more expensive kit. They don't have any issues with being transparent. They feel soft. Overall, they feel on par with bibs and jerseys that cost the same for just one piece. My concern is the stitching and their long term durability. First, it's not flatlock, so it can dig in a little. Second, it seems like its the sketchiest bit. That said, at this cost if they only last one or two seasons, it's not the end of the world at this price point.Finally, there's how comfortable it is on the bike. I know this largely personal, but here's my impression. My favorite bibs are a pair of gen 1 Castelli body paint shorts. Now, I'm not trying to say these are comparable, but they get surprisingly close relative to their price--the Castelli's are nearly 5x the cost for just bibs. These don't have that kind of all day comfort, but they're definitely the second most comfortable pair I own. They have just the right amount of padding. The biggest issue is that the pad tend to work its way back over the course of a ride requiring some adjustments. If the main padding section continued ~ 0.5in-0.75in further towards the front this would be a non-issue (for my sit bones at least).Overall, I'm super happy with them and have gotten more compliments on them than any other kit. They're not without their flaws, but they punch well above their price point.

The jersey is nice, I like the design
The jersey is nice, I like the design. It fits well. The bib, however, I had to throw away. I rode 40 miles and I have sores. The pad did nothing to stop chafing, and after 20 miles became very uncomfortable. But hey, the jersey is a really fantastic design, and the price, even with the bib, was worthwhile. I wont try any more cheaper bibs, I'll stick with the name brands even if they cost four times as much. My rear end is worth every penny those cost.

Want to Like Them
I'm 6'2", 220 lbs and these fit great (a little tight in the mid section for the jersey, but that's more due to the off-season). Colors are great as well. Haven't ridden in them as of yet- again, off-season.Update:Have ridden in this kit several times now. I've realized the pockets on the back of the jersey sit higher than my other jerseys. It's not a huge deal, and I'm not super flexible, just noticeable. Another realization is how high up the front of the bibs sit. No way your pulling them down for a comfort break without taking the braces off your shoulders. The bib shorts seem to be a very thin material. That's great for the hot weather, but seems to be less fitting. In other words, the black part of the shorts seem to move around a bit on my upper thighs/hips and I find the chamois tends to ride forward just a bit. I will continue wearing them, but will probably go a different route next time I purchase new kit.

Great fit, poor quality bib.
I've worn this kit 4 times so far, and after washing it after every ride, the chamois is already beginning to deteriorate. I also have a much more expensive jersey and bib combo that I have been wearing for years, and this one is pretty good quality in comparison. The chamois is a little thin, but it's nice and wide to be able to cover most people's anatomy. This would be acceptable over short distance rides if the chamois seemed like it would last more than a few more rides than I've put it through so far. Like most people said, I'd recommend getting a size larger if you are in US sizes, and it should fit perfectly. I personally would not recommend this particular bib, but the jersey is pretty great quality.

shirt too big, bibs too tight.
The point of a cycling kit (jersey and bib's) is to make the rider more aerodynamic, so everything needs to be form-fitting not so tight that you are uncomfortable, but not baggy and flapping in the wind. That said, the jersey was too loose in the torso and neck and the bibs were too tight especially in the thigh. Going by the sizing chart, I probably need a size XL for the bibs and a size M for the jersey, and that is going by my actual waist measurement 36" not the size of my pants 33. I ordered a size large because that seemed like the happy medium for the combo. Overall, I think the product is a good value for the money but hard to buy a combo like this and get the right fit. For my size, I am 5' 11" and 180 lbs. My thighs are about 22" and my biceps are 13" (I know not real muscular up top). Maybe this sizing is better for someone who has a little more bulk up top and slightly thinner legs.

Get what you pay for I guess
I ordered this kit because it's half the price of a "cheap" set of bibs alone. Overall it's decent, especially for the price. But, and this is a big but if you put a lot of time in the saddle, the stitching used is not seamless. This could lead to irritation or worse sores on long rides. Fit is ok if you make sure to order a size up. I usually wear XL race fit and L loose fit. So I ordered XXL, and the jersey is a bit too loose, but the bibs are too short, the straps are not long enough. Not sure if I'd order again, the stitching has me worried now.

Great kit for a great $$
I wasn't expecting all that much from this kit, given their low price point. But I was happily surprised, they are no MAAP but for a new or casual rider, they would fit the bill on a budget. Good fit, great placement of the padding, breathable material.My only gripes were, the zip malfunctioned on the jersey when I tried them on for the first time, which I was able to fix. The white on the bib is quite see-through and the black colouring of the lines on the bib have bled but it doesn't look so bad.8/10, defs recommend for someone not looking to spend a year's wage on a kit.

Great product for a reasonable price
Love it. Product looks exactly like a photo and fitting is perfect! I’m athletic build 37yo, 70kg, 171cm height. I bought M size and fits really well.
