Ixon Xeres jacket
French firm Ixon makes decent kit at reasonable prices. And this Xeres jacket ticks both those boxes. It's got a thick, removable fleecey liner, CE armour in elbows and shoulders, and loads of adjusting straps on chest and sleeves. There's enough pockets to confuse even the most determined light-fingered street urchin, and the tough nylon outer shell has a waterproof liner.
It's also available in grey, blue or red and it'll cost you £189.99. Interested? Then contact UK importers on 01923 772273 for your local stockist. Or click on www.thunderchild.co.uk
