    I've got the Triumph Barbour one - from the McQueen range I think? Very good quality with loads of pockets - good armour too. Worth the money I think

    I like the idea for the Thunderbird Sport, but they would want to have improved since we used to wear Barbours back in the day before they became "cool" We had to stuff newspapers inside them for insulation and to soak up the leaks. The only cool they were was cold, they leaked and became manky and shiny. I used to get into awful trouble at home from my mother for leaving black marks on the walls from the jacket.

    I had one in the 70s i couldn't stand the smell of the wax proofing so I decided to wash it BIG MISTAKE. It shrank about 4 sizes and the waxing knackered my mums washer lol :confused:
