Default Aerostich suit anyone?

Has anyone tried an Aerostich suit, they're supposed to be pretty fantastic but hard to come by (US made to measure ) ..and expensive.
I've seen a couple on US ebay but would love to go and get one..

see http://www.aerostich.com/catalog/US/index.html

Bought one after all.. top class stuff, very well made out of quality material. zips on and off in seconds, ideal for use over your normal clothes or if you don't want to be wandering about in leathers etc.
recommended, though not cheap at $800.. good exchange rate right now though.

I can't understand why the yanks go so mad for them, they're only guaranteed waterproof for a certain amount of time in rain and from reports I've seen they do let rain in.

My old Gericke stuff cost me 250 quid 6 years ago and has never leaked a drop. I did wear it over a suit every day for three years too.

After a couple of years use the AeroSmith! is still going strong..but as Lozzo says,they aint waterproof!
Bit dissappointing for such an expensive piece of kit, I thought I'd want for nothing but find I have to use waterproofs for all but the slightest of showers.
It is however still THE BEST piece of motorbike stuff I've ever bought. It's now bedded in and as comfy as .. a very comfy thing.
There is little sign of wear, just a bit of the road rugged look to it..very Ewan & Charlie!
They do look the buisiness.
A dream for whipping over your normal street clothes when going to work etc.. feels very secure with the built in armour being hardly noticable.
Mine's a two-piece Roadcrafter though I now fancy a one-piece too..(despite the dampness)
If only they'd do one with GoreTex it would be unsurpassable.
Thoroughly reccommended
