Fantastic puncture protection with Greenguard, I prefer them as they don't wedge glass in to the tread as I have found the full marathon plus. Schwalbe are a bit slippy in the wet, but worth it for the autumn rides.

Great tyres and this is a good price for them. Been riding on them for a good while. They're tough and at the 700x25 roll reasonably fast. Unfortunately only a couple of sizes are available at this price, the other size is more expensive and the sizes I'd need are out of stock. Good for those who need the available sizes.

If I'm 700cx28 which one do I need to get? it's not labelled correctly or states this like the others
It looks like you won't be able to get 700x28 - as the other sizes are smaller or much bigger. Depending on the type of bike you'd be able to ride the 700x25. It's narrower, so it would fit whatever space is currently using 700x28. It's whether you like or feel comfortable with a narrower tyre. I use the 25 on my road bike and I like that it strikes a balance of not being too skinny, like a 23, but not so wide that it's slow. Really good for pothole and glass strewn city streets.

That's for this: http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bike-parts/bike-tyres/schwalbe-marathon-plus-bike-tyre-700c-x-28c
If you're after something with a bit more grip, I'd go for these personally:
