My faithful Gill Pro Speed event jacket is near its end, after 3-4 years hard use. The DWR is gone and it has a fair few holes in it.

Gill don't make cycle jackets anymore. If they did I would just buy another one.

So what's out there thats similar? Basically a spot on cycle specific cut, Event fabric and no frills (oh and fluro. This one was red, but I'm a scaredy cat on the roads these days)

Contrary to all I said above, I've ordered a Gore Oxygen ( http://www.evanscycles.com/products/gore-bike-wear/oxygen-iii-paclite-jacket-ec011170?query=oxygen) in the sale.

Can always return to an Evans store if its not right and then get the Wickham.
