What we wear: Held Shaku Waterproof boots

'We test the things we sell'- you hear it so often! Well, we actually DO. We don't just pop them on, walk around the store and pop them back in the box- we actually, really, physically, use them! See my Held Shaku boots (below). I've had these now for three years- covering thousands and thousands of miles in them. As you can see from the pic, the right one's minging after some great rides, the left one's been lovingly washed and cleaned.

GetGeared sell the best waterproof motorcycle boots
My Held Shaku boots- one's been cleaned, one hasn't!
Before I put up the catalogue pics and our 'official word' on these boots let me tell you my impression of them. Brilliant. So much so the Gaffer has tried to get me to use others, I've declined so far as I'm really happy with these. They've kept my feet warm in Winter, cool in Summer and they've kept my feet dry in the rain. They scrub up nice (as you can see) and what I really like is that they have a zip both sides, meaning the whole front drops down- very easy to get on and off. They are also by far the most comfortable motorcycle boots I've ever had.

And here's a thing- I don't wear wellies anymore in the snow- I use these! They are my dog walking boots as well :) Now, enough babbling! The official word:

Something nice for the ladies

It's coming up for Christmas when our nearest and dearest deserve a treat. No, we don't mean the bike! So, for all the ladies that are reading this- it's hint time, for all the gents reading this- add this to the list :)

The Merlin Bromley Wax Jacket

It's great value, will look great on or off the bike, anywhere actually. And- and here's the thing, Halley Stevensons of Scotland are the people who manufacture for well-known brands such as Barbour and Belstaff and it's their wax material that has produced such a beautiful jacket! But at under £200 it's not Barbour/Belstaff prices!!

GetGeared is the best place to buy motorcycle jackets
The Merlin Bromley Wax Jacket from GetGeared
• Great value ladies motorcycle jacket inspired by fashion
• Waterproof & breathable membrane & a removable quilted liner
• CE armour to shoulders & elbows - ladies sized for comfort

Ride in style and comfort in this awesome wax jacket.
Inspired by the high-street, this jacket even has an element of fashion thanks to the producer of the wax material. Halley Stevensons of Scotland are the people who manufacture for well-known brands such as Barbour and Belstaff and it's their wax material that has produced such a beautiful jacket!

Great for all-weather riding.
There's a waterproof and breathable membrane in this ladies motorcycle jacket, to keep you dry on those rainy days. There's also a removable thermal liner, which means you can stay cool in summer with it removed, but feel snug in winter!

You're protected as you ride. CE armour at the shoulders and elbows ensures the major impact zones are protected in the event of a crash. The outer also offers abrasion resistance if you have a slide.

GetGeared top tip: Buy a size smaller than our size chart for the perfect fit! If you're a UK size 10, an XS will fit you perfectly. This jacket would look awesome paired with the Olivia jean from Route 1!

The only time I'm happy when my bike's off the road is when she's being fitted with something new :) Like most motorcyclists I LOVE trick motorcycle 'bolt-ons'- "polished aluminium", "anodised black", "aircraft grade billet" are some of the words that start me rubbing my hands together...

Waterproof gloves are for life, not just for winter!

Waterproof gloves are for life! 
Not just for winter!


You want a waterproof glove but if you are not careful you end up with a pair you did not expect. There are three types of gloves that keep you dry in the rain:
  • Laminated constructions
  • Lined - traditional construction
  • Insulated and lined - designed to be warm for mid season to winter 


The Summer glove
Held Wizzard motorcycle gloves



A great example of a waterproof glove that's fantastic for wet weather use is the Wizzard glove from Held. These Short-cuffed motorcycle gloves have a bonded X-trafit Goretex membrane, so is 100% waterproof and breathable. Its the laminate that makes it unique and means to you it feels like an unlined glove even through it is waterproof.

The lined glove


Alpinestars motorcycle gloves 

The Alpinestars Valparasio is designed for mid-season & touring. These gloves are just right for covering long distances at speed or when the weather turns but it's still too warm to get the winter gloves out. With the traditional construction of an outer layer, a membrane and a heavier or lighter lining, these motorcycle gloves always will be warmer than a laminate glove.



The Winter glove


Rev It! Fusion motorcycle gloves
The Rev it! Fusion gloves are a great waterproof and technically superbly clever glove for Winter. The clever design of these gloves means that they can be used with heated grips and the moisture wicking lining will pull away the moisture from your hands making these gloves ideal for winter commuting! For a great winter glove you get a complex set of insulating layers, a waterproof membrane and a wicking inner lining.
