    Layering up

    I just picked one of these up. Should be real nice as an extra layer on the cold days. Plus, it makes you feel like a super hero when you put it on.

    LOL. It's a union suit. Common for hillbillys and their ilk. Fuck it, I like being warm.

    Seriously though, is that the best I'm gonna get? Some vaugly homophobic rip? Like any gay dude would be caught dead in something so red-neckish.

    This thing is a gem! It's just waiting for a good slam!

    C'mon Barn, I'm talking to you, man! I haven't had a good laugh all day.

    Just thinking of men riding around with that on under their gear makes ME feel all warm!

    Which super hero are you - the Flying Red Hot Pepper of Love?

    Sorry, best I could do at the moment...might try later if alcohol inspires me.


    Btw, what material is it made of (seriously)?

    Thanks, I appreciate the effort! It's a 50/50 blend. Cotton/poly. Probably not flame retardant which adds additional warm in case of a fiery crash.

    Re: Layering up

    I have seen those at the local wal-mart, heh furthering the "redneck" image. I call them my 1890's Prospector PJ's .. on butt ass cold snowboarding days, (you know below zero) I will wear them under my "normal" snowboarding gear. It only seems logical that they would work for riding

    I may need to invest in training wheels for the snow tho, or knobbies I have seen motorcycle training wheels, they are for "kids" (like me?).. at first I thought they were a joke, but if they are a lot of people are working together to fool me.

    Whatever happened to Under Armor?

    I bought some at Cabella's last year and its VERY warm and easily fits under tight leathers, etc.

    Under Armour is awesome..... I like their Polo shirts because you can wear them under your jacket if you ride to work and they do not get wrinkled or pack them in a Backpack....

    Re: Layering up

    Has anyone tried the Under Armour Compression leggings? I'm looking at getting the Cold Gear ones, but want to make sure that they are going to be worth it. My ride is about 45-60 minutes in the morning and my legs need some help staying warm.

    I can't rip on that. A brotha just wants to stay warm. Now if you would have bought...

    I where a pair when I go to the conoco and aboloutley love them! IMHO under armor makes the best garmets for keeping you warm and not adding any "bulk" to your clothing.

    I second that as I have perforated leathers and when it is cold, the cold gear long sleeve and leggings work great. Feels all toasty inside!!!!

    I dunno.... looks a little bulkier than the ski pants that I wear (warm enough for a 30 mile commute down to about 10 degrees or so)....
