Richa Cyclone

Expect to pay £399 (jacket) £299 (trousers) www.nevis.uk.com

Richa has teamed up with high-performance waterproof and breathable fabric brand GORE-TEX to offer a new range of textile jacket and trouser combos and the Cyclone outfit is one of them. Naturally both jacket and trousers are fully waterproof thanks to the GORE-TEX lining and a removable thermal fleece lining is also included in both garments. A 360-degree zip attaches the jacket and pants together (although you can buy them separately) and there’s Ce-approved armour at the shoulders, elbows and knees as well as a Level 1 back protector (with the option to upgrade to a Level 2). You can also opt to add braces to the trousers and different trouser lengths are available to ensure a perfect fit.
