Whilst I realise other people are going to have an issue with it, breathability is low on my list of concerns. I don't sweat a vast amount on the bike, and if it's raining hard enough I'll probably strip down after a ride anyway.
I'm looking for a jacket that will let me spit in the face of Poseidon and come out unscathed. I'd wear a wetsuit if it had more pockets. I really don't like getting wet.
I've been wearing cheapo army surplus waterproof trousers when it's really caining it down recently, but I stacked it going over Vauxhall bridge and ripped the knee up - anyone got any better recommendations for bottom-half waterproofing that is slightly more snug than the bin-liner tent I've been using. Gotta fit over jeans, rather than riding gear.
