Looking to buy some knee/leg warmers, there's lots of choice! Don't know what to look for really, and would I be better off just covering my knees or going for the full length down to the ankle leg warmer affair?

Oh, and seems they start at about £15, but do you get a lot better equipment if you spend double the money? Been looking at a few on Chain Reaction, can't really make head nor tails of them!

Should stipulate, keen to buy from Chain Reaction as I can pay via paypal.

I have some "DMR" ones which are excellent, they go from ankle to top of thigh and have grippers built in.

I think I got mine off Ebay - which also takes Paypal.

These are great knee warmers - bit like 3/4 length...

In answer to your question about knee or full length - it depends how cold it is. I prefer full length as it keeps your shins clean!

40 Euros though! Ridiculous money.

I got some Lab-gear Merino leg-warmers a while ago and they were £18. Can't get them anymore though.
