I might look into j&s textile trousers I need something armoured and waterproof! my current ones tick all the right boxes apart from waterproof  Are j&s nationwide? |
I think they are yes....I also think that their superstore is up north somewhere. On the whole, yes, mine are waterproof. The only problem I had with them was on a 5 hour ride back from the Lake District in awful weather. I had a very heavy rucksack on my back, sitting as pillion and I kept having to pull the rucksack up to relieve my back, but I think it must have pulled the jacket up with it and exposed the zip as I got wet there. Not very wet really, just wet. Hadn't gone down my bacl or anything, just in that area but have ridden many times in the rain in them before minus rucksack and not ad a problem!
I don't know what the mens are like for fit, but the womens feel fantastic and yes......I will get a back protector soon. Especially before I get my new Buell.......lol
