Choice of two at the same price,anyone got any of them I would appreciate opinions or is there somothers to consider.
Use mainly for short commutes
Altura night vision commuter
Or
Castelli thermo full zip.
Both £50 which is my budget.

    For the price - just go to Aldi and check out their kit there. You'll be able to get a couple of jackets that will do you better than just the one. Aldi love their reflectives too.

    With one jersey - what will you do when its colder ?

    Already got a long sleeve jersey and a jacket from Aldi and there's nowt left locally. They are last years stuff but I do find them a little too hot and sweaty especially the fleece lined sleeves and they don't dry very quickly-found them still wet 8 hours later for the ride home.
  • I say castelli definitely! Better products/brand. Also, With the altura night vision you could end up looking like a night worker :)

    I think they are going to fit two different body types - mamil/commuter for Altura, skinny wannabe pro for Castelli. Choose the one that fits you best on the bike.
