type of trousers and jacket?

[JamieK]

im in desperate need of some sort of protective trousers lookiing at leather but as i will ride through winter im thinking ill be better off with the textile type, ive got a 'gear' jacket and its great its just its getting a bit big for me and in need of a new one as its only useful in winter when ive got about 10 layers on under it

what everyone recommend for textile trousers and jackets

plus got about £200 budget and didnt think it was to bad as this jacket ive got was £100 and trousers arent as much as jackets

take a look at the RST range of textile trousers, good value for money in my opinion. Plus most of them come with a 360 degree zip to attach to your jacket (just make sure the jacket has a 360 degree zip that fits

yes, it is good if you can get the same brand of jackets and trousers so they will zip together, but i find a half zip at the back is enough.

Personally I'm not a 'label slave' if you know what I mean! For me, fit and comfort are more important than a posh name. If they do what I need them to do and have good armour & padding then they're good enough for me!
