    Got a Quechua Rain coat to be worn over the riding jacket to be used in this rainy season. Will check it's effectiveness soon and post the same.

      Dear friends,
      Do any of you have any experience with Orazo riding boots? I am looking for a good riding boot which can also be used for some trekking too. Know it's kind of an utopian wish but from the description these boots seem to fit the bill quite well.
      Any inputs would be appreciated.

        So guys. I have decided to get another pair of gloves. Its for my brother. He wants a full gauntlet. Budget around 3000. Is there any good options available? I have never researched gloves. I currently use a tbg street. Its a good product.

          I too bought a Quechua raincoat, but a different model. Bought one size larger so I can use it with riding jacket. Don't have a riding jacket currently, but planing to buy one shortly.

          It's quite airy and comfortable for a raincoat which is usually synonymous with sweating. It's very good for trekking also, as you don't sweat a lot due to the raincoat.

          It's a bit thick than your model, so I am bit concerned about the fit over the jacket. But let's see, as I can't return it now. Click image for larger version

                  First you ask for options and then when that is given, you reject them. You should have mentioned earlier then.

                    I was not rejecting bro. I just was not aware of them. I thought cramster and dsg made only street gloves. When i was shopping around for my first pair of gloves. The cramster and dsg shop had only street gloves like the one i purchased back in 2012. Cramster twister or something. Sorry if u thought i was disrespectful. The ones my brother told me are the tbg and rynox. I want something that would not be damaged by small rains.

                        Hello guys,

                        Help needed yet again. Can someone please help me out with the options of riding pants.
                        Price: 6k-8k

                        Currently which are the ones that are really good. Have a heard a few things about pants that the knee guards do not stay in place. But nothing about any specific brand.

                        If anyone of you have had any good/ bad experience with any pants/brand please do let me know. I don't want to make a wrong choice, as I am sure I may not be able to purchase one again anytime soon.

                        Cheers.

                          Aspida Proteus mesh. 7.1k. Old stock 6.3k. Well made pants with top notch Knox armor for knee. Odysseus if you want water proof.

                          Cramster velocity is one more slightly below ur budget.

                          Have to wear and sit on bike to get the size right so that the armor seats exactly on the knee.

                            Chill, no offense taken.
                            Have a look at cramster and dsg website its mentioned there. And they were actually one of the first full gauntlet gloves that came here.
                            Leather and rains doesnt go well, for rains either you need a textile gloves so that they can dry off easily or water proof rain gloves.

                              Its gonna rain and its gonna get wet eventually. I live in kerala. It always rains here for no reason. So the textile gloves is what i would prefer. The leather gloves i own always gets fungus in and on it.

                                SPG has launched an armoured waterproof glove called the Poseidon a few days ago. You can check with the HelpDesk for details.
