Sungg fit
03 February 2025 by Michael D
It's good quality if a bit snug. I went for a large which usually works for me, but I should have gone for the XL.

Super high quality - Size up.
18 January 2025 by Gixxer 1
If you're looking for a light weight, extremely well designed wind blocker, look no further. Excellent quality and super comfortable. Blocks wind (and the cold) exactly as described.
Sizing up is a must and not optional. Im a large in every case and sized up to an XL based on the reviews and it was a perfect fit.

12,000km journey

Bought the RST thermal wind block top and bottoms online from sports bike shop UK. Was unable to get my size here in NEWZEALAND and UK had my size which is true to fit. Very good quality and perfect for wearing under my kevlar jeans and shirt. They arrived there 12,000km journey in a speedy time frame and I'm so happy with them. Thankyou very much.

RUGGED THERMAL TOP (BUT WATCH SIZING!)
20 December 2024 by Alan B
Winter riding demands quality thermals & this RST under-jacket definitely provides a worthwhile layer of protection that's noticeably warmer when the temperature drops!
It it, however, way out on sizing as I had to go up a full TWO sizes above my normal L to achieve the correct fit!
However, this is where dealing with the truly superb customer care of SBS comes to the fore, as they quickly arranged a swap AND DELIVERED IT IN TWO DAYS: NOT A PROBLEM!
After all my years of buying here, why would I ever go anywhere else!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Snug and Warm
13 December 2024 by Chris H
Purchased for a fellow biker who is perpetually cold (from about August each year) as an Xmas gift. For him to say that its warm is high praise indeed. Still riding well into December and not able to feel the cold at all. Sizing was accurate and really good quality

Season Extender
21 October 2024 by Tricky_Pieface
Super piece of kit. Nice fit and well made, I think RST gear is pretty hard to beat when it comes to what you get for your money. I love wearing my leather jacket but it is full of perforations. This blocks all the drafts out so I can wear my leather jacket down to 10 and even lower. I have the matching bottoms to go under jeans and they are fab too.

Amazing
20 October 2024 by Simon
I've tried a few thermals and this wind block top is by far the best, it's stops the wind chill and keeps you warm. The quality of the RST products are always really good, so I'm happy with my purchase.

Great Quality
17 October 2024 by Mark
This is a mid weight mid layer, a bit more bulky than a normal thermal base layer. Well thought out and great quality, the side zip keeps the chill off your neck, it kept me really warm on a cold weekend bike trip, looks great but like other reviews i went up a size, normally I'm a medium in everything but ordered a large in this after reading other reviews and it fits perfectly

Way too small
17 October 2024 by Carl H
Seems like a nice well made top but unfortunately far too small. I'm 6ft 2" and 14 stone and I ordered a 2XL as the reviews said to order up a size. It was so small I had to check the label and it was indeed labelled 2XL so had to return it. Very disappointed

Quality item that works
05 July 2024 by Barny
Quality item that makes a difference. Wish I bought one before now. Size wise, I had to go a size up.
Had to return first item and move up a size, SBS service 1st class yet again.

Great VRM, Warm and unobtrusive.
05 May 2024 by Andy M
This top does exactly what it says,- I've worn it as a base layer on cold days, and as the only layer on sunny days with only a leather jacket over the top. It is wind proof and does have thermal properties.
It fits well (I'm a 44" chest, I bought and XL), just tight enough. Pulling it on and off is a bit of a contortionist routine, but it's comfortable when it is on. My only minor gripe is that the stand up collar sometimes feels a bit scratchy against my neck, I usually wear a thin scarf so it's nut not generally I problem.
One more thing, it's wind proof, so consequently it's not breathable, I found it could be a bit sweaty if you have a lot of other layers on.
Great VFM, and looks tidy enough to wear casually outdoors, (perhaps not in a restaurant though,)
The service from SBS in MK was impeccable as always.

What is it like compared to oxford Chillout
07 March 2024 by Stephen B
For over 7 years and 100K miles I've used my Oxford Chill out high neck top. But it has finally given up.
I wanted a high nec and a none front zip. This was the only real option. My oxford was an XL but I had to get a 3XL in this rst to fit. So its rated good as it does what it says. However to get the other star I would have like elasticated cuffs an a slightly tighter neck closer that is softer. I have to wear a snood to stop neck drafts. Only had it just under 2 weeks and 700 miles so please bear in mind it's not been washed or had years of use when reading my review.

Warm at last
14 December 2023 by Peter B
Bought to go under a Knox Urban Pro Jacket but bike is currently off road so using on my ebike. At last I'm warm, been out on a challenging cold ride and core stayed warm when would normally be shaking like a shi**ing dog.

Great value & works great
08 December 2023 by Rab N
I was really impressed with the Thermal Wind Block pants that go with these, so decided to get the top also. Works a treat, and exceptional value. Not too bulky and fits well between base layers and jacket. Highly recommended.

RST Thermal Wind Block Top
08 November 2023 by Mark C
Great bit of Kit. I bought 2XL and fits snugly but not too snug. Used it recently for a 200 mile round trip in fairly cold weather and it worked a treat. I like the offset zip but would have liked it to be a bit longer.

RST Thermal Wind Block

Cracking mid layer bought to go under summer mesh jacket.
Originally ordered large but far too tight so definitely go one size more than normal.
Good value for money.

Just what I needed
07 July 2023 by Pawel
I wanted something to go under the mesh jacket on the colder mornings. This works a treat, fit is quite tight so no excess fabric to try to squeeze under the jacket. It stops the wind and cold getting to your body through the mesh. Very happy with the purchase and Sportsbikeshop as always fantastic service, highly recommended.
