Today was a good day...

I've been saving hard for the last few months and had got together £350 for a better jacket as my old one wasn't waterproof, was cold and I'm pretty sure it would have disintegrated in an accident.

Had finally decided on what to get and was about to leave to go buy it when my mum offered me another £300 to get the matching trousers, which was completely nuts. Can't thank her enough for that.

Looks like I'll be staying toasty and dry this winter!

I'll do a little review when I've worn it in some harsher weather, which I suspect will be soon

Awesome Benn......Rukka is good gear if a little pricey.....but you get what you pay for......awaiting a review once you've had a chance to put it through its paces.....

The price seemed ridiculous but after reading up on it and trying it on, it seemed reasonable. Then once I found out about the warranty, I was sold. 5 years Rukka warranty where if anything gos wrong with it, you get the jacket either fixed or replaced and in the meantime you get a loan jacket sent to you and the Gore Tex life time warranty seems to mean if it stops being waterproof ever, they'll sort it. Seems pretty good value!

Yeah....a lot of the motorcycle couriers I see in London use Rukka gear.......so they wouldn't spend that kinda money if it wasn't worth it......

Your mum is a leg end!

Also, I'm well jel! Being not freezing in winter will be the best thing ever.

That's awesome.

I'll be awaiting the review as I'm still one of those naughty bikers who rides with his jeans and coat on

I'm a big fan of the RST slice leather stuff but I'll never afford them at the moment

I'll be dry and toasty too this winter..... In the car lol

Glad your happy with your purchase and that was nice of your mum.
