I have one of the Aldi bib and braces which is fine in cooler weather but being lined it's way too warm for the current weather. I prefer to wear one just to keep the kak of my clothes. I recently bought a Fortress bib and brace and it's a vast improvement. Claims and appears to be waterproof and breathable and does appear to be breathable. Waterproof has yet to be tested but the material looks like it should be waterproof and the lining or cloth facing stops it sticking to you. No zip front and no side pockets but it does have a small chest pocket which is useful. I haven't torn it as yet but the material doesn't feel particularly tough. Nevertheless, it was relatively cheap, I paid £17.95 and I'm quite glad I got it. They're very generously sized. I normally take an XL size in most things but the XL is really too big for me, large would have done. It's OK though. I just look like Simon Cowel on a bad trouser day.
