FAQ
1. How does Vortello fit compared to standard cycling jerseys?
Vortello jerseys are designed with more room through the chest, shoulders, back and arms, while still keeping a clean fit around the waist. If standard jerseys feel tight up top but loose when you size up, the Vortello V Fit is made for that exact problem.
2. Which size should I choose?
Choose your size primarily based on your chest measurement. If you are between sizes or have very large arms, we recommend sizing up. See our Size Guide for more details.
3. What if I choose the wrong size?
No problem. You have 30 days from delivery to request a return or exchange. If the fit is not right, you can exchange it for another size or return it.
4. Is this jersey only for very muscular riders?
No. Vortello is designed for athletic and stronger-built riders, but you do not need to look like a bodybuilder to wear it. It is for cyclists who want more comfort and freedom through the upper body without a loose, oversized waist.

Absolutely love the jersey, it's amazing to finally have something that fits right and isn't strangling my limbs.
Overall, the fit is spot-on, the fabric is super comfy and great quality, and the sales support from Arne was top-notch. 6/5 stars if I could give it, great work team!
Like a lot of other reviewers have pointed out, finding a cycling jersey that fits right when you have a broader frame is a massive headache. I’ve finally found a jersey that genuinely fits across the chest, and the arms aren't too short or too tight.
It is great to have an option where you don't have to resort to buying a club jersey or sizing way up just to get it to fit. Usually, when you have to settle for a club fit to get the room, it looks baggy and rubbish. This actually looks like a proper performance jersey. Just because you're a bigger rider doesn't mean you don't want kit that looks great.
I had a couple of questions before keeping it, and Arne was incredibly quick to respond and great to deal with. Fantastic kit and brilliant service.
The fit is great and the pockets sit where they should on the back but the jersey is not very durable. After a few days into a bikepacking trip and daily handwashing there are loose threads and abrasion damage. The stitching on the inside catches on everything easily so you have to be careful.
The color is also not represented properly. The jersey is simply pink in direct sunshine. Had I known, I would have ordered a different color.
Hi, I'm happy to hear that you love the fit but sorry you found the quality to not live up to your standard. We've been testing our jerseys for years and haven't found an issue with the threads ourselves but in rare cases there can of course be a slight imperfection during production.
The color can vary slightly depending on lighting which is normal.
I hope you had a great bikepacking trip nevertheless!
Since you're not completely satisfied I would love to offer you a free replacement jersey in a color of your choice. I've reached out to you via email.
Thanks,
Arne
I wouldn’t describe myself as particularly muscular, but since other jerseys have always fit awkwardly around the chest and back, I decided to give Vortello a try. I think the quality is really good. The jersey fits me really well, too, and I'm already looking forward to my next ride. I'm 1,88m weigth about 105 Kg and ordered in XL.
I’m 5’7” at 177#, 43 inch chest, 34 waist, 16” biceps. Size large fits well, “race fit” without being overly stretched. I can reach the rear pockets without contorting myself and the sleeves, while tight, aren’t cutting into my biceps or armpits. Sleeves could be a little longer, as that seems to be the style this year. But overall, excellent purchase.
*Material is thicker than some Jersey’s, wouldn’t be my first choice for very hot weather. Fortunately I live in Alaska so that’s unlikely to be a problem!
Having dismissed jerseys in favour of suits for years, due to being tight around the chest or biceps, I finally have a jersey that I do not have to leave mostly unzipped just for fit (if I went for the right length) or flaps about the waist (if I went for a much bigger size for comfort). Now it's snug in all the right places.
Well made and fits for someone who lifts weights and rides bikes.
As described. Quick shipping. Looks nice
As described, quick shipping. Looks nice
Was excited to get for my husband’s birthday. Chose fit based on size chart and ordered a large. The jersey was way too small and short. As a seamstress, I was disappointed in the construction and had to remove some stray threads before wrapping it for his birthday present. Zipper quality pretty mid as well. Very disappointed.
Great jesrey fits as advertised.
The spruce pine is much darker in person than I expected based in the website pic. I was expecting something baby blueish. Didnt even notice the color name till I checked it after receiving the jersey. No big deal but really was looking forward to a light blue as that would look really sharp with black bibs.
Fits on these jerseys are great and solves the fit problem they aim to solve. These jerseys actually make me look even more jacked since the chest and arms arent being constricted so heavily.
Looking forward to raw cut sleeve V2 jersey!

Good fit
I was on a trip outside of the xountry and nobody was at home, it was marked as delivered.
I contact Virtello on last saturday and surprisingly i received a very friendly answer.
In the end courier lect the parcel in the mail box, ive tried and the jesey is too small.
I contacted them again and unti now i didnt receive an answer from them.
I first came across Vortello on Instagram and decided to give it a try. One issue I’ve always had with other cycling apparel brands is that the sleeves tend to be too tight, even though I don’t have particularly big arms.
I was pleasantly surprised by the fit of this jersey. The sleeves are comfortable and don’t feel restrictive, while the jersey still fits snugly around the torso for a sporty look and feel. It’s exactly the kind of fit I’ve been looking for. The quality is also excellent—the fabric feels soft and comfortable against the skin, even on longer rides. Overall, it’s a well-designed, high-quality jersey that I would definitely recommend.
Great fit and seems to be very durable
Great Jersey, finally something that fits my arms. Also very light and breathable. Seller was very understanding when i had to make changes after ordering.
Having seen these advertised on Social media as a better fit for bigger more muscular guys, having purchase an XXL for a 45inch chest, it is just as small and as tight as all the other brands I have tried. Quality is good, no problems there. The one star review is due to the advertising claims that are not correct for me.
Hi,
sorry to hear the jersey didn't fit your build properly. It's surprising because I have a 46 inch chest myself and fit a size XL perfectly well. The jerseys in size XXL have a chest circumference of 46 inches so it should fit you well. Maybe you received the jersey in a wrong size accidentally. If you want, I'll send you a replacement jersey free of charge so you can check. I've already refunded your order and sent you a separate email to take care of this matter.
Best regards,
Arne
I like the material and color. I wish the V shape was more aggressive - the shoulders fit but the jersey is a little loose on my torso. My biggest complaint is that the cuffs on the sleeves are too tight on my biceps. I wish they were a little longer so the cuffs sit closer to my elbows, and had raw cut openings instead of elastic.
Hi John,
thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad you like the material and color. While the jerseys are cut for bigger arms, it is of course still difficult to get it right for all the different arm sizes. We are currently working on a V.2 of the jersey that will most likely feature raw cut sleeves, so look out for that. We're also testing different sizing options to possibly offer two different versions of the jersey, one of which will feature an even more aggressive V shape and wider sleeves for bigger arms.
Thanks,
Arne
I have wider than average shoulders and cycling jerseys are usually tight at the top.
I found Vortello jersey and ordered one for testing. The fit was perfect.
After that I have ordered three other jerseys with different colours.
I love the colour and it fits perfectly
Perfect fit
Premium quality, very well made garment. NOT as premium as Assos, but very good and it fits. I’m 5’7”/170 cm at 183 lbs/83 kilos, with a 44”/112cm chest and 16.5”/42 cm biceps. The size large fits comfortably (though a little snug on the biceps). I can easily retrieve my phone or earbuds from the rear pockets, waistband sits where it should instead of hanging below my nuts where most jerseys large enough to fit me in the shoulders snd chest usually wind up. Thank you Vortello for recognizing the problem and providing a (very good) solution!
