Merlin Clothing

I must admit I was sceptical about the Water Proof status of these Jeans - how wrong was I.
Just spending a week in Scotland and ridden in lengthy downpours - not a drop got through !!
Highly recommend these.
They feel super-robust and would be far too hot for summer - but for Scottish wet weather they are AMAZING.

Fabulous gloves at a great price and kp2

Although the inseam is a tab long for me (30" - I need ideally 28.5 or 29) I find these very comfortable. Waist was a 30" (I need a 29, but 30's are as small as these go), but a belt cinches them in fine.

Love the two-tone colour on this - a bit retro-70's with a modern twist, perhaps? Fits well. I got the Held Viper D30 back armour (medium) to add to it - this fits the back pocket perfectly and is a bit cheaper than the Merlin version of same thing (SBS kindly confirmed the M size would fit before I purchased).

One _small_ negative (it's early days of wearing it, so this view point may change) is the cuffs and their zips. No room for gloves to go under the cuffs with the zips done up, over only - which is OK I guess. Another factor (but again, have only worn it a couple of times so far, so this may settle in) is left elbow armour seems to prod me a little. Not sure if it's the position (they Velcro into a pocket, so I will be trying to tune that a bit).

Dedicated internal pockets for both (sun)glasses on right and ear protector buds on left. Has a nice quilted removable (by zip) liner for balancing between cooler and warmer ride seasons.
The zip to join to jeans is a short version, not full waist wraparound, so you need the matching short connector on jeans or leathers, if you use that.

As expected

Fit is spot on and looks good it does generate a bit of wind noise fine for short journeys or ear plugs for longer rides. Sportsbikeshop delivery excellent as usual.
