Does your gear match?

Ok people, as the header states, does your gear match???

Do you wear textile jacket and pants, or leather jacket and pants??

Or do you mix and match, ie textile jacket/leather pants or vice versa?

I have a really nice textile jacket and looking for pants, but am looking toward leather pants. Or should I go with textile all round and look at getting a full set of leathers later on down the track????

How say you?

My gear doesn't match. Definitely not me to be seen with matching boots, helmet, gloves, jacket and pants. Depends how fashion concious you are I suppose. Each to thier own.

Matching: Doesn't really matter, as long as you have the gear.

I have leather pants & leather jacket!

I've got matching Spidi jacket & pants - but only cause of the deal & that they work together. Also got a 17 year old leather jacket and some other stuff which gets mixed and matched around town - saves the good gear for decent blasts.

I have leather pants, and both leather & cordura jacket.

I'm sure my gear matches something.

Well I have cordura pants, and a mix of jackets...Cordura for the rain (well actually I have a car for when it rains) and a couple of leather jackets. (Couldnt let the opportunity for the leather Ducati jacket go by) I thought I wanted leather pants....till I went and tried,(and tried, and tried) to get some on over my fat thighs!....so cordura pants it was.

**manwithav8** · 19th August 2007, 16:57

I too have a car for wet weather travel.....

**Wannabiker** · 19th August 2007, 17:00

Yeah...Im not too scared to say that "C" word.

I prefer my 2 piece leathers but might use my Cordura jacket and pants for the rain, Also Dragon jeans are pretty good in summer.

**McJim** · 19th August 2007, 17:01

I have two leather jackets, one cordura jacket, two pairs of leather gloves one pair of leather boots and one pair of waterproof overtrousers.

I mix and mathch as I see fit depending on the weather.
