Held Clothing

I was quite specific when looking for winter gloves - warm and waterproof, obviously, but not too bulky, not too long or wide at the wrist so my jacket sleeves could fasten over the gloves and a visor wipe was a must. These ticked all my boxes.
When they arrived (super quick, as always!) and I tried them on, my first reaction was, 'No, too tight, they'll have to go back'. But I kept trying them on and they do ease off quite a bit. On the Held size chart I measure below the top end of a size L so an XL would have have been too big.
I eventually tried them out on the bike and they were fine for a few hours at 5-6C. I don't have heated grips or any wind protection on the bars. Really pleased with the comfort and quality. They're easy to get on and off and get snug at the wrists. The visor wipe works really well too and I like the soft knuckle protectors. So overall I'm very impressed with these and glad I didn't return them.

The laces appear not to open wide enough when you put them on first few times - so they need a little wearing in … from there though nice boots with good feel on gear shift.

Got these in the sale and they’re a bargain. Don’t know if I’d of ever paid full price simply cause it’s out of my price range but at half price they’re brilliant quality. Not too thick to effect feel but warm enough to most weather and really comfy. Sizing is good too

Very light , nice armour and comfortable for those very hot days.

I'll be honest, I'm short, female, getting old, struggling to find affordable and practical bike gear! I found this jacket after multiple attempts and various "try on" others! Firstly it does fit, even with uprated armour, which is a bit heavy compared to the original fitted, I'm pleased with the comfort when sat on the bike for hours though. The biggest of the annoyances has been the "baggyness" at the pocket "waistline" wise. Once I've done the jacket up, it fits ( with heated jacket underneath - well, around the top half of my torso. However, the hip area, waistline etc, it leaves a little too much room. This makes the pocket zips extremely difficult to do up one handed, which I then have to twist uncomfortably - to secure pocket zips with both hands. Now I've usually opted for a mens jacket, also not quite right- "fit wise", usually huge in shoulders, and arm length, but never have I experienced difficulty in doing up pocket zips!!! This said, the jacket works well in the winter temperatures. Its doing a decent job with the lining fitted. Not tested yet in the heavy rain, but I'm confident it will stand up to it.
It's as good as I could find, at an affordable price.
Especially with my awkward size !

Good
