Held Clothing

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

Quality winter glove as ever from Held. However normally a Large had to order a size up to XL

Perfect gloves for the summer time, comfortable, fit well, lots of perforation, and the kangaroo leather palm is really supple and thin allowing for better dexterity and better feedback from the levers and throttle

lovely soft material, well made and fairly waterproof. Pack down very small and slip over clothes easily. ????

My partner is very happy with his boots comfortable and look great excellent quality.
