Does anyone know of any good bike gear for "larger" people?

Wondering whether it'd be easier to find in the US or here to be honest.

I'm looking for waterproof road gear mainly.

Take a look at JTS biker clothing website. They so sizes up to XXXXXL!!
Their camo jackets are quite appealing

Hmmm

Well I have cloth jackets, and goretex jackets issued. I don't think I'd want to rely on either if I was going to get the rubber side up anywhere.

Do you want it for riding the bike Matt? PM me :)

Seems to be popular now, bespoke bike gear but in cammo. Ok untill you fall off in a ditch and get left behind by the Ambulance !

Didn't want them for riding the bike, just wandering around in. I've got a cloth camo jacket which I'm very partial to (black and white - I stand out a mile at Waterloo station in the morning!). It's starting to get worn so I was thinking of getting a waterproof version. So I've been looking around for a waterproof version with pockets and lining that doesn't look to plasticky.

A nice Cordora or similar bike jacket might just do the job.

You want the Dutch Gortex combat top, Short Bomber style hood , much better all round, pretty cheap surplus around £25.
