Need to get summer gear. Badly. Especially gloves and trousers that my fat arse fits into. Genuinely having issues cornering the GS with em on!

To be fair, I've used a pair(?) of Frank Thomas textile trousers for the last almost four years and they've been brilliant. Still got plenty of life left in them, no damage and perfectly waterproof.

(Not that I wouldn't expect such quality, but nowadays it seems that you need to replace everything every couple years..)

The leathers are shit. I had a pair of (£80) leather gloves fall apart after 4 months, got them replaced, same thing happened again.

The leather trousers I had, the lining ripped out of them. Same story and timescale as with the gloves.

You get what you pay for. I would recommend jacket and leathers by arlen ness, but suggest you avoid their boots and gloves, and get A*.
