Anyone have experience a La Passione jersey. I am wondering about the fit and finish.

The quality is very good. I would say it's the same as the boutique brands selling for twice the price, as they use the same Italian contract factories as the boutiques. The bibs, I would say are good, but not on par with,say, Assos.

I've got a few of the Raw jerseys. Four, actually. I grabbed them after discovering the fit is great for me: slim cut, with a relatively long cut sleeve and well positioned pockets. I wear a medium at 6', 145-150 lbs. If they had a size between Sm and Md I'd try it.

The quality is solid. I did send one jersey back b/c of a bad zipper and they replaced it.

Their bibs are fine as well. Good chamois, decent compression.

Agree the quality is good.

Anything long-sleeved has relatively short sleeves. So an XL, for example, will have sleeves 2-3 inches shorter than say a Rapha equivalent. Some of their more detailed designs have issues with some dye bleeding I've seen on my orders and a friend's.

The most disappointing part is a pretty strict return policy which turned out to be onerous enough that I gave up. For that reason alone they're off my list. Something like Cafe du Cycliste has comparable-to-better quality and great service.

I'm not sure, I don't own Castelli. I have a Large one for sale for cheaper than new.. :)

I just got their PSN jersey. Excellent quality. The fit is perfect: slim through the trunk, enough room in the arms/shoulders to fit comfortably. Their classic bibs are also very nice.

yep. I got the regular, not the lightweight which is more mesh.

I'll chime in. I have several of their jerseys. I'm 125lbs, 5'6" tall. Small fits nicely. Very nice quality for the price (really for any price). Super quick delivery from Italy. Whole hearted endorsement from me.

got the same email to the sale. sounds like a value buy. but DHL to Canada will always be charged duty/taxes plus DHL handling fee, which becomes a regular price item.
