Heather went to Dri-Rider for her jacket and gloves http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ladies-Dririder-Vivid-Jacket-Dri-Rider-SportsTouring-Womens-Black-Pink-Motorbike-/261042385704

And Kevlar cargo pants from Bikers Gear http://bikersgearaustralia.com.au/index.php?route=product/product&path=64_70_84&product_id=165

Most of the sites in the article I think refer to US or UK brands

My only real difficulty with women's riding gear is the gloves, currently using size XL women's and they're still a bit on the snug side.  May have to go back to buying men's gloves.

I hate shopping for gear....you find all this cool stuff in the mens but when you want the equivalent it's ah "sorry don't have it in ladies"   WTF?

Anyway, a few years ago, I researched and have found Firstgear Riding Apparel fits me great and has the features that best suit my riding.
http://www.firstgear-usa.com/

It's not available here is Oz, you have to get it from the States but for me well worth it. I'm still using the gear today and have no complaints.
