I recently bought a set of pro talk , best I've ever owned had a few sets , but these are more expensive to buy but alot better quality

You wont go far wrong with Kenwood pro talk. Built to military spec so tough and showerproof, had mine 6 seasons now and still going strong! Pricy at about £140 a pop but will last for years.
