Firstly the staff at SBS were phenomenal. Attended to my every need and gave as much advice as I asked for.
The product itself is honestly next to none with the material being super flexible and tough. I was skeptical about wearing a hoodie on a bike but after the ARMR I dont believe I'll go back to a jacket.

Nice fitting hoody great for throwing on and getting out. Has a zip in the bottom to attach to your bike trousers and if they don’t have a zip it has belt loops. Great fitting and great value for money.
