If its cold you have to layer over them.

Ive been piling on the layers underneath (vest top, thermals, back protector then cardigan).

Im quite liking my textiles more than the leathers at the mo but will switch to leathers when it gets warmer

I wear a fleece over leathers when it's a bit chilly. Keeps the cold air out.

And a fleece looks so cool

I wear thermals under leathers if it is parky, good ones work wonders. I thought folks wear jumpers over the top to keep fly squash off their trendy A* or Dainese fashion statements?

are these the ones you were showing of in Petes Eats?

Pete and I both wear a fleece over our leathers in cold weather. That plus thermals means we can wear leathers all year round rather than textiles, which we prefer

sometimes riders have t-shirts on over their leathers when its a charity run and have the charities name blazened across the back.
and also if you wear a white shirt it reflects the suns heat and keeps your leathers cool in the summer.
or so they say.

That was the genral consensus of opinion from a 6 page thread a year or so again when a photo of me amerged on silverstone with a jumper over my leathers .


At least this thread seems a bit more sensible with people realising its to keep warm.

Lol, if that's the case it's failed dismally with mine! I wasted two hours of my life the other night trying to clean mine up. They are filthy!

Still I'd rather be out on the bike getting my leathers mucky than not
