    I need a new softshell after my lovely Rab disappeared in regretable circumstances i.e. I left it somewhere and when I went back it was gone 😳

    I cant afford more then £50 tops, would like one with a hood and either pit zips or venting pockets in the chest area oh and those thumb hook jobies too.

    Possibly moon on a stick but whats about?

    how about Marmot driclime? They can’t be far off your budget

    [have just googled it, eg: http://www.outdoorwarehouse.co.uk/index.cfm?action=shop.detail&pid=58C91C64-FF29-08BD-484C895781047ABA&ref=gbase ] That one’s going for £60

    I’ve got a couple of the windshirts, and a vest too: great bits of kit for autumn and winter biking

    Good ol’ Decathlon does it again.
    It has a hood, pit zips and those things for your thumbs, it’s also a little longer in the back and I find it ok for cycling. I also like the high neck when zipped up and hood down.

    Also in a rather fetching orange.

    I got a black one about three years ago for €130 😥 and noticed the price drop a couple of months ago. Great for off the bike too.
