I would say if you're only going to have 1 set of bike clothing then get textiles as leathers are neither warm nor water proof

£40? Think you need the charity shop mate, not HG

Best hold off until you have a bit more money methinks. I had some Dynamic leathers, they were cheap - not that cheap - but they did until I could afford something better. But DD's right - go for textiles, it'll do what you want better than leather.

I doubt you will get anything for £40 thats worth buying tbh. If you want one set for all year round I would suggest textiles over leathers anyday.
