Bright ideas for winter from Weise
Brightly-coloured and waterproof, the new Hornet gloves and Economy rain suit from WEISE® will help make riding throughout the autumn/winter season a more comfortable experience for only a modest investment. By November, sunset occurs at 4.30pm and in December daylight ends around four o'clock in the afternoon, so making yourself stand out on busy rush hour roads is important for motorcyclists, not only in the dark but also when other weather conditions affect visibility.
Manufactured from a mix of modern textiles and with Hipora® waterproof, windproof and breathable liner, Hornet gloves will keep hands dry, while a Thinsulate™ 40-gram lining will keep them warm too. There is goat leather on key impact areas on the palm and thumb plus a TPU shell covering the knuckles and the Hornet gloves are held securely in place with a wrist retention strap, with zipped adjustment on the cuff. However, the most outstanding feature is the hi-viz material on the cuff and fingers, with 3M™ Scotchlite piping on the back of each hand for extra visibility in low light conditions. Available in sizes Small - 3XL, Weise Hornet gloves retail for £54.99 including VAT.
Equally indispensable, the new Hi Viz Economy rain suit is manufactured from durable waterproof nylon with taped and welded seams. The main YKK® zipper runs from the collar to the outside leg and this, combined with internal mesh lining, makes entry/exit quick and easy. There's also a handy thigh pocket. With large hi-viz panels and 3M™ Scotchlite piping across the back, this outstanding rain suit is produced in sizes XS-5XL and sells for £44.99.
