Oxford Rainseal £49.99

Sizes: S-6XL Colours: Black or Fluoro www.oxfordproducts.com

While you usually have to buy a size larger to fit over your riding gear, Oxford’s ‘intelligently-sized’ suits account for this so you buy your normal size. The Rainseal features reflective panels and is adjustable at the cuffs, waist and ankles. It’s fully lined and has extra long zips and water-resistant seams. Bit of a faff to get on as the leg zips have flaps so do not open fully. They also got caught in the lining which slowed things down. Baggy when on. An integral carry pouch (inside the left chest) allows you to fold the suit into itself and wear it round your waist.
