Black argon evolution?
Looking for clothing to do my das next year, is this any good? Could it be worn over clothes easily?

Re: Black argon evolution?
Good deal but I prefer the look of a shorter jacket. Would you recommend going for textiles over leather for doing das and fair weather riding. I don't want to look stupid doing my das in full leathers even though they are my preference

If it's a nice day and you feel comfortable in full leathers then wear them. You don't want to be uncomfortable / thinking about your gear on a test or at any other time on a bike. It won't make you look stupid, the opposite may apply as the examiner may see you as sensible and cautious. Personally I'm ATGATT you never know if or when your going to come a cropper.

Oh decisions to be made, not sure if I love or hate choosing. Thanks for the input though

Re: Black argon evolution?
Textils for the road rider are probably the sensible option.they are more versatile
Good quality don't come cheap unfortunately. But good enough can be had for sensible money.

Re: Black argon evolution?
I'll add the Armr Moto gear is excellent for the money. I've got it, the kids have got it, and its well made, waterproof and both kids can confirm it hurts less if you fall off while wearing it.
I've yet to test that out and am reluctant to do so. I'll add i've never been cold, and have never got wet either wearing it. |

Steer clear of "black" kit, it's cheap and feels it.
Very cheaply made and generally poorly fitting.
