How we choose products
We would rather recommend three things we believe in than thirty we don't.
Testing
Wherever possible, products are worn, used or tested by our editors for at least two weeks before we recommend them.
What we look for
Quality of materials and construction, fit and comfort, longevity, value for money and whether we would buy it again with our own money.
Price range
We recommend across price points and always explain why something is worth its cost.
