looking for some new bike wear

[-Ali-]

this winter i'm looking into getting some dedicated bike wear, my main worry is that it has to be warm and water proof for riding throughout winter. been looking at the cheapish buffalo jacket for £60 and would like some ideas on some good cold weather gloves

Hey there, which buffalo one is it?

I wear buffalo gear through winter and really recommend it - but thats the stuff I have. Even the cheap stuff is well made though so should be ok - my mates are instructors and they wear buffalo 7/365.

Gloves - if you can cope with the slight loss of feel, lobster claws are ace. I got some RST ones on offer for a tenner last year.

No bike gloves are 100% waterproof though.

Highly recommend silk or cotton glove liners under your gloves too, traps the heat in layer etc.

Layers in general are important, thermal top/long johns especially. If you're on a budget you can get a couple of sets of army surplus ones for a pittance on fleabay.

Oh, and if you don't already - always double-sock!!!
