Hand made by Katie Barton in London, these cute little SpotMe reflective badges are covered in a highly reflective Scotchlite-esque material. They come as a set of three, with four different hand-stitched designs available: ‘Love’ (hearts), ‘Whistle’ (squiggly lines), ‘Arrows’, and the racy ‘Oh la la’.

Given the pins on the back, you may not want to attach them directly to your fragile technical fabrics, but it should be easy enough to find a bag strap, zip tag or similar to fix them to. Small and light, they’ll snazz up a boring bag in a jiffy, and the extra reflectivity means you’ll be more visible at night.

With designs that should appeal to men or women, young or old, they’re actually pretty good value for money when you consider that they’re hand made. Presented pinned to a piece of fabric, they make a visually appealing gift.

Verdict

Perfect Christmas stocking material for the cyclist in your life, irrespective of gender, age or cycling persuasion.
