Anyone tried these undersuits?

[discotex]

These look great. For roughly $100 I think they're worth a try. Wondering if anyone else wears anything similar under their leathers and what you think...

Any local alternatives?

I thought you just went commando under your leathers??

Nope seen nothing like it locally, including the blond.

I find when I get sweaty the lining in the knees bunches up a bit. Drives me nuts.

Also like the idea of having something smooth against the lining in the case of a slide so there's no grabbing of hair or skin.

If it keeps you cooler as well that's a total bonus.

Might have to make one the last item in my recent gear spending spree :)

Good call on the chick :innocent:

But yeah they sound a mint idea - windproof front & coolmax back......

I've only recently discovered Merino stuff, but I don't know how I lived without it.

Got a set of leggings and top with little thumb holes in the cuffs. Superb stuff.

I think you might be onto something there !! The merino stuff does everything that "hi tech" material does .... naturally ... and it's Kiwi !
Does it make you itch though ? Some wool stuff makes me scratch like mad. That would piss me off big time !!

merino aint windproof though......

but it's so snuggly :hug:

Try Rebel Sport. The have stuff like this for those weirdos that like to run everywhere. Claim to keep you at a constant temperature. Nike, Adidas, Canterbury etc. so it's not cheap.

I have some old half worn T shirts. They work just fine and cost me nuffink :2thumbsup If I get too cold I just wear more of them.

For $100 I'll go for it. Anything local is approx $100 for a top or leggings each.

I've been using Oxford leggings and top. The Coolmax windproof lining is great in slightly cooler weather. My leathers was obviously designed in Southern California so airvents everywhere. When it gets hot and sweaty I switch the top to a Merino short sleeve. The smooth leggings make it easy to slip out of the leathers.

I've just bought a pair of Nike running leggings, something similar to UnderArmour, which I have yet to try.

I've been using an ExtremeRacing undersuit for a few years and it's great, buy one.

So anyone else want a set? If you're in Auckland I could drop them over.

Half price shipping if I get two items....
