Great value gear
28 Oct 2025 by Alan
It's a great fit, very comfy when in the bike, I bought the jacket and trousers, they zip together really well, removable jacket liner does what it's ment to, not removed it yet. Only down side is no back protector, but when it's such a good price, it doesn't matter that much.

Great summer style
26 Oct 2025 by Adam W
Love the styling of this jacket. The fit was spot on for me compared to an RST textile jacket of the same size. The zips are all solid and move well, paired with RST gloves with long cuffs that wrap round the jacket, it's a good wind seal. This is definitely more of a summer jacket. It can do on a cold autumn day but make sure you've layered up! Only downside here was no back protector included which seems a bit of a silly oversight - however, the CE lvl 2 back protector from my RST textile jacket was a perfect fit, so all good.

Great Summer jacket
20 Oct 2025 by Rob J
Although just bought this going into winter, the 2 rides out in it you can tell there will be plenty of air coming through the chest area and arms. I usually wear either XL or XXL, ordered the XXL online but was way too small, rang the helpline and the guy I spoke to was great, swapped for a 4XL at my request, delivered to the Preston branch, the guys there were all great too, jacket fits bang on now, so my advice size wise for us larger guys is go up 2 sizes. All round a great shopping experience. Thanks Team

What a bargain
13 Oct 2025 by David
These leathers are fantastic quality at this price point on sale at £149.99 for the jeans and £189 for the jacket.
Make sure to try on though as the RST sizing charts are ridiculously inaccurate. According to my chest measurement I need a size 40. I ended up needing a size 44 and that's a snug fit!

Very good quality
06 Oct 2025 by Eduard S
Just bought those to go together with the RST Evo trousers for a trackday at Oulton Park. Very happy with my purchase. The quality is top notch, the waist zipper works perfectly. It was just warm enough and just vented enough for my needs - October time. Doesn't come with a back protector included but I had a spare lying around. Passed the track side tests no bother. Definitely recommend as a beginner two piece suit if you decide to try out running track days. And for the road it is perfect. Cheers.
