Which one?
I've got a 3/4 sleeve version and think it's great. When I first put it on I had to double check it wasn't on backwards as it felt a bit odd. Once on my bike and leant forward with hands on the grips, I realised it was cut for the riding position and was very comfortable. The material on the outside of the sleeves and shoulders has a tough rubbery feel to it and shrugs off the batterings that would rip or pull threads in lesser materials, and the mess panels on the inside of the arms gives welcome ventilation. There's a wee zipped (kidney) pocket for secure storage of keys etc and a bit of microfibre sown inside for cleaning glasses... a nice touch.

It was the thermal one at £62, I did see a cheaper non thermal at £35 pounds but I didn't see the 3/4 sleeve..

Oh right.... here's the 3/4 one - http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=25666
Is this the one you're looking at? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=32195 I've not seen this in the LBS, but seems to get very good reviews on the web, as does most Endura gear.

It was the £59 one that I looked at which is couple of pounds cheaper than I saw, but the 3/4 @ £35 looks good as well.. the orange one would be my choice..
mmmm what to do..

Depends if you want it for warmth or not. The 3/4 one is warm weather only, but on cooler days I wear a full sleeve thermal underneath. On cold days I'll wear something else 
As for colour -- I've got a white one, which wasn't the best colour choice in hindsight
The orange does look great tho!
