The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread

I shall report back.

One thing that has been a game changer for me was one of those mesh seat covers. I wasn't convinced so bought a cheapy one off a chinese marketplace for a few quid. The airflow you get under your thighs is very cooling and if it rains it allows the water to drain away off the seat better. It is also under quite a bit of tension so adds a little bit of extra support.

I managed to snag it with the buckles on my mx boots and it tore a small section. I fully expected the whole thing to fall apart quickly after that but it hasn't got worse over the last few weeks.

The ones I've ordered have mesh on thigh and shin, so hopefully get some air.

Thank you for reminding me. I meant to order one months ago, a very hot sweaty ride today and I still never thought about it, done now though.

Two 50ft pupster leashes for training at the local park, but they won't be here in time for the beach visit tomorrow.

Bought one of those a couple of years ago.

Do NOT forget to take it off if you go out in winter....

Maybe not pleasing, but just ordered these for monkey duties. All I'm interested in is long trousers for hot days.

Yes, they're probably shit, but I'm quite fond on a bit of that.

Tested today and very pleased for £58. Very lightweight once you throw away liner. Plenty of mesh so plenty of venting. Good size zip pockets x 2. Have to order one size up. Removeable armour included.

Ah! You can ignore my Q? on the other thread.

The mesh on the legs looks longer than on my Airflow ones. (IIRC I put Knox armour in my Airflow kit in place of the stuff that was in there when I bought them. Lighter and perforated).

I bought one of these and it turned up today. An AirCraft LUME fan.

Well impressed. Remote control, quiet as a quiet thing and does this neat '3D' thing - oscillates and tilts, 30, 60 or 90º up/down and left/right. Quite hypnotic.
