Awesome glove - Read this review!

I first saw these gloves at Motorcycle Live while looking for gloves to add to my Aplinestars Drystar Apex - which are a good glove but not quite Gore-tex. I was also looking at the Rukka Virium but once I tried these on I was sold. They are a really good fit and super versatile, with the dual chamber feature usually found on winter gloves - one compartment for rain riding and one with perforated palms which warm up quicker with heated grips or offer ventilation when it gets warmer. I ride a blood bike all year and I honestly can't see any reason to use any other glove unless it gets super cold, in which case I have a full on winter glove I can use (Rukka R-Stars). These have the benefit of easy fit, as they're on and off all the time when on shift, as well as having the visor blade on the left index finger which is itself longer than the regular sizes. A lot of thought has gone into this glove and it shows, with all the important little details. And the bonus is that the guy on the stand at the show didn't want to play with having a deal and Sportsbikeshop were way cheaper as standard!

Love this jacket

I bought this jacket recently after my A-stars Megaton's zipper started to spontaneously come undone during normal day-to-day rides. I commute daily so needed an all-season jacket. First - the good: This is a top quality jacket, worth every penny. It is built to last. I had Dainese and A-stars in the past. This Jacket is at least as good, and in some aspects better than those. Amazing leather quality, soft and supple right out of the box. The fit on this thing is the best I've seen (I am just shy of 5'11'', 78Kg, wear a medium). Had encountered some heavy rain in the past few week - kept me dry and fuzzy. The gore-tex insert can be worn as a separate garment, or attached to the outside of the jacket. Which can also be useful, if you swing that way. The zippers are very rugged which will ensure that the jacket is durable for many years to come (point worth noting A-stars...). Why not 5 stars? For the price they could have included a thermal liner. As it is - I need to wear some extra base-layers on very cold days. But otherwise - I am very happy with the purchase and if this gets lost or stolen - I will buy the same again. Top notch service from SBS as usual.

A well made bit of kit

A rugged rainsuit that offers good weather protection. Zippers around the ankles and the diagonal zip across the body make it easy to get it on and off. My only gripe is that the cuffs are elasticated, with no zippers - making it a bit of a challenge to get winter gloves on if you're already wearing the suit. It's quite figure hugging, so I had to go for a large (I'm 176cm) to make sure it went on over my jacket's back protector and shoulder pads.
