I was shocked when the socks arrived how thin they were, but surprised how well they keep my feet warm these last few weeks in some very cold weather.
I wish they were a little thicker on the soles but in all comfy warm sock

I purchased this leather jacket for my wife as a Christmas present, when parcel arrived being delivered by PDP we noticed box was damaged quite badly, when opened and jacket was taken out of Polly bag the front was covered by a dark green mould, my wife tried jacket on and was found to be size to small, We made arrangements and reserved the next size up at Birmingham branch, and was dealt with very professional manner, all sorted sales staff acknowledged that it was mould on original jacket. Box was so damaged not able to send return back, Thank you Sportsbikeshop.

I wanted a better quality under-shirt. I've had cheaper ones, they haven't done 5,000 miles yet and they're quite pilled and tired-looking.

I went to SBS in Boston and tried a few and this one ticked more boxes than most.

The sizing however is a little weird...

I'm a 50" chest and 6'1" with all my height in my back (31" inside leg).

The size chart on the Held website doesn't even agree with itself!! '2XL - 42" - 122-125cm'.

My 2XL shirt measures 46" at the underarms and somehow, it's still quite big on me. No idea!!

We know bike gear sizing is bizarre but it just means trying on first. As a result, I've got this at 2XL, my Oxford Montreal at 4XL (fits like it was made for me and my Richa Infinity 2 6XL is 'snug'!!

How does all that work?

Anyway, I've bought it, I've worn it so it's staying.

I'm not sure if these are supposed to be a close fit but it isn't. It's not 'too big' but it's bigger than I expected.

In other areas, it's 29" next to hem if that helps anyone?

I've only worn it two or three times but you really can feel the difference in quality and I'll probably get another. It's good gear!! Might look at the warm version to considering how the wind howls through the new Richa jacket...!

These are really nice gloves in many ways but there are a few things to be aware of.

I wanted to get some properly waterproof gloves this time. I've just become a Blood Biker so we're out in all weathers, you're constantly taking your gloves off and using your phone.

With the typically excellent SBS service, I spent some time in Boston trying on all sorts of gloves. These were the best without spending too much money but the sizing is nowhere near that stated in the Held guide on their website!

Measuring around my knuckles is 9 1/2". That (according to Held) should put me at the high end of Large.

Not a prayer!! Couldn't even get into them!! I've got a 3XL which is a great fit but there's more... I can only just (comfortably) get into these and it's the wrist size that kills it. They only measure 8" with everything undone!!

I went for the short finger option - regular was way too long - but I still find these a little long when I'm trying to open a key-code gate or similar. There's just too much 'squash' at the fingertip BUT upon checking, that does align with the Held guide.

Other than the fit issues, they really are great gloves so far and in every other respect, I'm quite delighted.

I don't think they're exceptionally warm but we ride BMWs with heated grips and hand-guards so not too fussed there and the overall quality more than makes up for the (minor) shortcomings.
