Anyway, anyone know of a UK supplier of the Hebo/other makes waterproof jackets? Its not the riding jacket I mean, but the actual anarack type ones. Many Thanks!

jtt Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 Matt my freind, I have a hard time sympathizing with you when I'm buried in 3' of bloody snow and -18C temperatures That said, have a look at GasGas UK's website under Enduro. Hebo have a nice anorak style true raincoat listed in their enduro line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in BVM the other day in Stroud (when I should have been working). They had a couple of good looking ones - xciting (blue or red I think), raw sport in black, and definitely had a load of those bright yellow ones. I didn't look too much at those as I have no desire to look like a 6'3" canary, but the xciting were about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
