depends on what your riding to a degree, and what you intend doing...
as a golden rule cheap aint worth the saving....

As funny as it sounds V4 is correct.
Buy the best you can afford, many years ago I paid £200 for a pair of Lewis Leathers jeans, the jacket was even more expensive.
To cut a long story short the "jeans/trousers" saved me from serious road rash and even kept the kneecaps in the right position after ramming myself ( as the WOMAN DRIVER SAID) into her Metro @ 70MPH.
Also as an ex despatch rider, buy the best,its warmer. Protective and protective and helps protect.
Did I mention protection?

Thankyou Ox - I looked at some Alpinestar all in ones and I like them. So does my skin!! I understand about Protection and as an ex off road rider, I always appreciate that its not wise to buy cheap. Better get some overtime in lol
