    A local shop will most likely do you a deal making sure it all fits.

    Gaerne boots are very good.
    Leather pants and a jacket that zip together are the go
    I have a Qmoto jacket. It's been excellent for years

    If your hands are medium I have a pair of gloves surplus to requirements that I will donate to the cause. PM your address and I'll send them up to you.

    I've had my GRWs for about a year now, done over 20000kms in them. Only issue I've had was one of the screws on the ankle brace coming out, had no trouble getting a replacement screw though. They still keep the water out too. I'd recommend them.
