As per the title, can anyone recommend a softshell jacket that's fitted enough to wear for both MTB and road cycling for around £50 mark?

There is such variation that falls under the definition of soft shell that you may want to go and look at a few to find out what you need. I have a few ranging from really thin windproofs up to much thicker suitable for cold winter use. I was looking online for a new one a few weeks ago and gave up. I'll go and look at some before buying one.

natrix - the size chart is true/slightly road fit, it's moderately waterproof in a shower too
