Tourmaster/Cortech make decent gear for good prices.
HJC make highly rated (DoT & Snell) inexpensive helmets; look for a CL-15 on close-out.
Gloves? I’ve had two unscheduled get-offs. On the first, the hard knuckle protector on my gloves was dented leaving my own knuckle unharmed. On the second, I was wearing Winter Gloves with no hard armour and injured my finger. I’d go with the hard armour.
