This http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CLPXHYSPHWPJ/planet-x-hydrosphere-waterproof-jacket in the fluoro yellow (£34.00 Was £99.99 65% OFF) and these gloves in the same colour. http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/PXLGWL/planet-x-100-waterproof-crab-hand-winter-glove I also bought this cap http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CLAPVINCCC/apis-vintage-cotton-cycling-cap (in white) as it made the order up to £50 so you get free postage. The jacket and gloves are for winter.:cold: The jacket has good reviews. http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/reviews/jackets/planet-x-hydrosphere-waterproof-jacket
I hope i can get used to having crab like hands when riding my bike.

I'm so proud of myself! I made a decision without asking others for their opinions.:wahhey:Seriously though, i might've started a which would you buy thread but you have to act fast when Planet X reduce stuff so much. Last night the jacket was 34 quid so i thought i'd order it in the morning, only to see it up to 69 quid this morning. I thought i'd leave it till i saw it back down to £34. In another hour it could be another price.Just as long as it's not below £34 i'm not bothered.;)

I tested the jacket out yesterday in heavy showers and 16C temperature. It kept the water out and i didn't feel any sweat build up. The tail is very long, it covers the bum with a good few inches to spare. The only problem is that it's that long it keeps getting caught on the saddle when you want to stand up. All in all it's worth the £34 i paid for it, and more.

Did you get the right size ?
It shouldn't be getting caught as much as that .

I bought a large sized one. Medium would've been too short in the arms. It does specify that it's long in the body so i knew it would be. It's not too much of a problem as i don't stand up much anyway, and it only catches for a second or so.
