Lidl Motorcycle Jacket and other specials

Lidl Ireland have a jacket and trousers next week. Has anyone tried
their gear before?

Thanks.

 

I'm not sure what the message is there - do they expect to sell a load of
them to people who plan to end up lying in the middle of the road?

 

Jacket and trousers I got last year are brilliant. Very warm.



Boots are crap, the soles wore out in 3 months and are hollow so you
can't get them fixed.

 

That's nothing, Aldi have the £12.99 1050w Angle Grinder back this week!

Phwoar.

 

Looks like I'll be spending £12.99 this week.

I got the trousers and jacket, two years ago. They've been used almost
every working day since, and have rarely let any water in.

Aldi had something similar in a couple of weeks later, which looked like
to be much better quality, so I'm holding out for that to reappear
before replacing them.

Arabic? Why?

 

They do have the pressure washer for cleaning up afterwards.

 

Google Fucking Groups

 

I suspected as much. But shouldn't it detect your language settings from
the browser? I thought Google were meant to be good at this sort of stuff.

 

I own the jacket for about 6 months now, can't compare it to other gear as
it's the first stuff I've bought, but I'm really happy with it. Warm, plenty
of features and it has never let water in, in the mild weather that I am
using it (couple of light showers tops). I've not dropped with it yet
(*phew*) so I can't comment on the protection, only thing you might wish to
add is a back protector, the pocket is there. It doesn't say it on the
website, but there's also shoulder pads in.

The jacket cost me 80 Euros here, but even at 90 quid it's great value
