I can only recommend one manufacturer after 35yrs of all weather riding: RUKKA - they do what they say they will, and, back it up with a no quibble 5yr guarantee that is stood by - I know.

My current outfit is the ArmaX Jacket and Trousers. In warm weather I remove the Outlast inner jacket. I've ridden in -15C snug as a bug in a bag, and, I've ridden in a monsoon a few times for over 6hrs and it did the job - completely dry.

Their gloves (which they don't make anymore did NOT work) and I got the money back immediately even though I'd had them 3yrs and an offer of free choice of jacket or trousers from their "leisure range".

They cost - but they are worth every penny.
