Time tested Eight months/5000miles
What’s good? It’s given me an extra level of
weather protection and improved my visibility. I’ve
worn it over my normal jacket all winter, hence it looking so
shabby. The reflective areas still work despite the grime and
it’s not torn or ripped. The zips still work, which is impressive
considering the hard use. The cuffs are adjustable, so they can
fit inside or outside winter gloves depending on the conditions.
What’s not? The reflective areas still work, but the fabric’s
not the bright yellow it once was. The Velcro strap in the left
cuff has snapped and the Velcro on the collar is worn. Note:
Oxford claim the jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof.

Tester Alison Silcox
Time tested Four months/500 miles
What’s good? This fleece is hard to beat as
the last layer before my riding kit where it adds
insulation without adding bulk. The quality is what I’ve come
to expect from the guys at EDZ – like other garments in their
range, it’s made from top-notch materials with good-quality
zips. It’s been through the wash a few times and hasn’t lost
shape or bobbled. The plain, understated nature of the design
means when I’m not on the bike it can be worn without any
worries about looking out of place.
What’s not? I really can’t find fault with this fleece, it’s great
value for money and really good quality.

Tester Simon Brown
Time used 11 months/5500 miles
What’s good? Spot on if you are riding a
Scrambler, XSR, Bonneville or similar. What you
are getting is something that can fool the casual observer into
thinking you are sporting a Belstaff, but for a fraction of the
price. It’s stood up to the test of time too; I have been using it
for just under a year now and there are no real signs of wear.
What’s not? There are vents but the material itself isn’t
breathable. Filtering through heavy traffic during a ride
through central London on my Scrambler last autumn I soon
became uncomfortably warm and the lining felt clammy. Also,
the belt buckle feels a bit on the cheap side of value.
