I’m a seriously frozone person so I tried a cabillion bits of bike attire promising warmth that really didn’t deliver. I heartily recommend snowmobile suits. Designed for superfeckin freezin temps. If you get the right sort they’re waterproof too. But they’re expensive and the second choice coming in waaaay cheaper (but does need waterproofs over the top in rainy weather) is coldstore work gear. Designed to be worn in sub zero freezers all day available cheap in all sorts of combos. Easy to get over a mobike jacket - assuming your not 5XL. I have a couple of decent warm jackets and can always layer up, it hands and legs that have been feeling the cold. I am hoping the Muffs will sort my hands just need to get some warmer over trousers. Thermals won't work for me as most of my shifts are in a warm Skoda. My Mrs had been taking the pish about getting a romper suit to go over the top like the Michelin man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make a difference. And eBay (soz know you’re trying to stay off that site ) sell cheap fleece lined waterproof trousers. Payed about £15 for mine, very feckin warm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some Richa waterproof trousers that are lined but not very warm, but they do help. I get paid tomorrow so will explore the options, but I am starting to get that look every time another box turns up at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to use the all in one rain suit and honestly don't rate them they are brilliant if you can keep the neck done up if not they are pointless, my problem with it was my 19in neck and it just wouldn't do up in the end I resorted to using gaffa tape to get it to close around my neck.....and yes I looked like a Michelin man.....not a good look. 2 piece is the way to go imho 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
