[url= http://www.howies.co.uk/mens/clothing/cycle/slipstream-ls-cycle-jersey-black.html ]this one[/url] ? seems a good deal and I do like their bib shorts and 3/4's

would likely be used as a winter mid layer under a shell on wet rides

I use a short sleeve one on the road, nice and comfy. I have no issues with the pockets.

thanks, how does it size up ? I have the bibs in L/XL, so was reckoning same for top, as think the S/M might be too small - 42 chest, 34 waist. 5ft 10.5. ??

Yes, as above pockets are close to useless - material just endlessly stretches.

Snug fit 🙂

I've had a short sleeve one for ages - it's good, even the pockets.

So I bought a long sleeve one, and it's also good, but the pockets are a completely different, much worse, design.

sounding hopeful, with only possible negative being pockets (which I won't be using !) - thanks all 🙂
