Armas - a bit chilly?

[paddy]

I use a heated vest in winter with the thermal liner and a polo shirt underneath. Really like itr had the suit for 3 yrs now, just had a new jacket under warrasnty due to fading. Also have a Twat jacket for summer use, like them both as in really hot weatrher the Armas would get hot in the sleeves.

But its fine in most weather, super in heavy rain.

Really rate the Rukka kit, never use the liners in the trousers.

I have a spare Rukka back protector which you can have for a tenner if it's any use to you. It's this type:

Hi Shuck raider

If this is still going spare, I would like to buy it.

Thanks

Nowt but praise for my Armas

Came with back protector, all fits snug and comfy and draught free

Two or three thin layers underneath are all you'll ever be wanting, well for me anyway

+1, also excellent in hours of torrential rain on a recent jaunt to germany,where everyone else was complaining their kit was letting water in....rukka kept me dry and warm...layers underneath, had heated vest but never needed it..
had a problem with armour in one knee but it bedded in over 2/3 days.
has a back protector which is noticeably not noticeable, if you know what i mean!
fit is good , the material doesnt give very easily which can make it feel bulky but that soon beds in too...

taken the inner liners out as its too hot with them in here now! (13C)

Sleeves of the liner? They have colour co-ordinated buttons at the cuff to keep them in position

I don't mean completely but will check they're in position.

Kept me snug and dry on wet commute home tonight.

Sorry Mike, somebody beat you to it

Armas might benefit from some insulation behind the "Lockout" closure. My previous Armax suit with the old-fashioned zip had another layer in the press-stud fastened flap. Apart from that it is a great suit.
