Sorry don’t mean to be sexist but One for the ladies ..... I’m a well endowed big hipped size 18 and struggling to buy a running jacket either reflective or high vis. Bought two already and had to return as didn’t fit Provis and ASICS. Any recommendations please. TIA

Yes. Buy men’s, a women’s jacket in a 16 or more is non existent. Men’s are a better length anyway.

Thank you Tasha for your advice. Appreciated.

Angielou , small hipped and 🙈 flat chester Running chap offering advice... I've been using my Ronhill jacket and it's brilliant.

And they do a range of sizes if it helps..

Thank you for your advice. I had looked at them but thought their sizing was a slim fit. I will look again.

Adidas Womens Pure Amplify running jacket. I've had it 2 years, it washes well. Has reflective bits, light weight. It has a zip you can open at the back if you need a little extra room. It comes in XL which is equivalent to uk 20/22. Best use google to try and find one. There is a large for sale on eBay for £25.00, amazon stock all the other sizes for about £60.
