I would totally wear the POC dungarees, but then I also quite want the Resurgence armoured dungarees for motorbike riding. No way I'm paying out 400 quid though, and it seems to be that theyve become a bit of a 'everyone will know how rich I am if I wear these' thing at peaslake. it does that job better than riding a high tower

Same. Also £400 for a garment that might well get torn up in a tumble.

When I used to bikepark, those paper-ish painter-decorator overalls were a thing when it was wet. Couple of sets a day and you reduced the crap in your car and washing machine. Still got wet though.

Those pants are ultimate gorpcore, i want them. Perfect to watch a few youtube megavalanche full runs in the pub.

If anyone is interested, I made a batch of Micro-musettes, just gone onto the site;
https://www.albioncycling.com/collections/unisex/lightweight-bags/
Available to purchase, or spend £15o + use the code MADEINLONDON and get one free (won't work with the forum disc I'm afraid). These are the stripped back, ultra-packable version - looks simple but has taken a lot of iterative designs to get here. ....Love to find time to do another forum batch, keep hounding me :D

Perfect. Just ordered
Do you have any advice on not immediately losing it though?
-
• #608
ha! Always keep in the same place when not using? Mine is either in jeans fob(??) pocket, or the zipped pocket on my big backpack. ...but I did find a missing proto in my rainjacket pocket this morning....

Store it unpacked @Belagerent? I thought I was being a genius keeping my burner in it's little pocket but then I could never find it. It only needs to be stored away if you're doing some ride where space is a premium anyway right?

Roll up and store in the bike specific EDC case
-

…Another one is rolled up, inside bar, with bar plug trapping the end of the strap, so you can pull it out easy.

When are the lovely trousers coming out again? Did you say October?

Anyone use the insulated jacket ? What is the fit like ?
-
• #614
Tried on one in Condor. I'm normally a large for other brands but fit the extra large for the insulated jacket.

Main range will be a week today, and the Zoa range with the waterproof trousers, at end of month …photoshoot in mid-Wales over last few days, so I’ll post some pics/more info asap. If anyone is in dire need of a pair, I might be able to arrange direct sales earlier (same as Day Tripping), but can’t promise!

Please tell me you took @youramericanlover with you for some grizzled fixie-suffering authenticity.

The on-bike Insulated Jacket or the bigger Zoa Insulated Jacket?
Either way, I personally find sizing is consistent with Rapha, just a more casual, upright fit for the Zoa, to wear over more layers and off-bike. The Insulated Jacket is closer, has swept forward arms, narrower across front chest etc which is noticeable if you're stood up straight, not on a road bike. Hope this helps -

Cool thanks for update. In no dire need so can wait, will pick up an rain jacket at same time I think 👍

Hi i have the zoa insulated and love it . Hand pocket zipps are a bit small though.
I was looking at the insulated ride one.
For size comparisons.

Main range will be a week today, and the Zoa range with the waterproof
trousers, at end of month …photoshoot in mid-Wales over last few days,
so I’ll post some pics/more info asaphey, does this mean there will be a new rain shell wondering if I should wait for the new one or just get the current one? cheers!
-

Current one, and limited stock. Not hyping, but this is all we have for this winter.
-
• #624
cheers will get an order in. Excited for the trousers as someone that spends the majority of his time on a mountain bike!

I have the Zoa Rain Sheel and it is wicked. Very lightweight and incredibly waterproof. Mostly wear it off the bike but is great on the bike as well.
@Chopsicle Great to see you guys at Bespoked, some very cool stiff coming up!
Not seen them so far. For me something like the poc dungarees appear a more versatile option. Also being a sweaty bastard I see the over lap of jacket/bib straps as a useful ventilation point. Or the option of dungarees and t shirt when the ground is wet but they skies aren’t raining.
