I rate most of this stuff - good price for stuff
Kind of tempted by the Kevlar jeans.....

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
I've had several pairs of their boots and have been very pleased with them.
Last year I bought a pair of their Kevlar jeans - they are a real bargain. Maybe not quite the amount of Kevlar that you get in Hood jeans but as much as in most brands and they seem well made.
I wanted some of their gloves today as the previous pairs I've had have been OK .... but when I got to the Reading store today (visiting mum this weekend) they only had small ones left. They looked very well made this year but missed one vital attribute .... no mention of being waterproof.
So I ambled on to Lidl and they still had some of theirs from their bike clothing stuff that they had in 10 days ago. Don't look as robust as Aldis but they do purport to be waterproof.

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
