The leggings are good under winter riding troosers. they are worth the 15 quid.had mine a year and they are still in perfect condition.

I wear them to work a lot.

Cheers, some from the last cycling clothes batch was very low % merino.

I will try to pop in later.

Finding the Aldi website hard to navigate. Can you buy online? IS there a size guide anywhere?? Cheers

update

sizes for mens shortsleeve

medium 38-40" 96-101cm
large 42-44" 106-111cm
xl 46-48" 116-121cm

the merino is brilliant, non itchy and very soft, finish is good too.

Neck is quite wide, but i bought mine as under shirts so thats of no concern to me 🙂

Looks like they're only available in store, but you can print a 'handy' shopping list out if you like.

Get there fast we have two Aldi's in York - one had sold out, but I got my wife a merino top and a few fleece balaclavas in the other. Boots look OK too.

Seems decent quality for the price.

Were the mens available only in short sleeve? Got the last one of that in medium but was hoping for a long sleeve too but it was only womens left for that

None of the Aldi cycling kit seems very big. I am about a 46/48 chest and their largest size nowhere near fits me

I took mine back this Autumn as it was un wearable for a refund.

Was about to pop in the car and go down to Aldi to check this shizzle out, then I remembered I've been in the pub drinking all afternoon.

:d'oh:

I have a LS Aldi merino top, lovely stuff, I seem to live in it. On and off the bike, looks great. It itches a bit at first but stops later.
The shoes are heavy, won't buy them.
