    Are you an Innie or an Outie?

    We're not talking about belly buttons here...but feel free to share

    How do you wear your gloves and boots?

    With the sleeve or trouser outside the glove or boot (an Outie)
    With the sleeve or trouser inside the glove or boot (an innie)


    I find with leathers I am an innie for both gloves and boots, but with textiles I am an innie for gloves and an outie for boots.

    Being an innie on gloves means that nothing can be pushed by the wind straight up my sleeve; the downside is that water runs down the sleeve and into the glove.

    Being an outie with textiles on boots means nothing runs down the outside of the leg andf into the boot (inside is a dfferent matter). The downside is that (unless it's strapped under the boot) it can ride up in an off and expose your leg.

    so peeps are you an Innie or an outie? Do you change it round depending on gear and riding conditions?

    Feet are innies. Hands are innies in winter but it's a moot point in summer as I wear short gloves that only just touch the sleeve.

    I wear my trouser over my boots because I am a biker not a sports bike fag.

    But I also wear gaunlett gloves as I am alergic to bees and have been stung a couple of times up the sleeve.

    Jeans over boots, gloves over sleeves. When I'm wearing my full leathers it's pants inside boots. This is necessary because of the boots, and also it gives grumpy old harley riders another reason to complain about something. Not that they're typically short of shit to complain about though.

    Sleeves are innie but pants legs are outie. My Leather pants (which are no longer worn) were always tucked in cos' they didn't go over the boot..) letting water in when it rained.
    If I wear a rain jacket, it's an outie (over the gloves)

    when I had my leathers made up in Auckland, Kerry asked me if I wanted to have them inside or outside my boots. Couldn't see me having leather trousers outside my boots....didn't want to look like a Harley rider or a gobby Cumbrian superbike rider..

    Bwhahahaha ... love the "style" answers ...

    Inside gloves .. I don't like the wind up my arms ..

    Leathers inside my boots, Draggin jeans outside my boots ... 'cause they fit better that way ..

    Wet weather gear outside boots - so the water doesn't run down into the boots ..

    It depends which set of gloves, boots and leathers I'm wearing.
    Usually it's gloves over jacket, boots under pants (with my normal gear)
