Not being smart but I recommend you go into local bike shop or Halfords or the like and view their range.

My reasons for this.
Get to feel test product.
Something might catch your eye.
Shop local us always good.
Halfords in particular often have very reasonably priced options.
Most importantly, cycling clothing sizes are very different to regular sizing so you could buy the medium you always wear online and then develop body dysmorphia trying to get in to it.

I've bought some Boardman clothing in Halfords and am very happy with it.
