What to wear under leathers? - SV650.org

OK, OK. You'll probably all laugh at me for this one...

I'm in the market for a new set of leathers for the summer. Probably two piece. However I've always worn textiles, Cordura etc... And they have gone nicely over my jeans and work clothes.

So my question is, what is usually worn under properly fitting leathers? Leathers seem to be a lot more 'fitted' than textiles. Is there room for jeans under them? They would be a bugger to get on yeah?

I'm clueless. Hopeless. Help!

With my leathers (were fooking tight when new - were made to measure with known amount of stretch) its just socks, undies and a t-shirt.

So not much worn with leathers

Yep just socks, boxers and T shirt
How can you wear textiles and jeans in the summer

Im usually cooking with just the above

however........I'd like to hear from the ladies on this matter

and I think pictorial evidence would help to explain this in further detail

If you want summer leathers, they you don't want jeans under then, you'll sweat buckets. I think you can get liners, but most leathers have some sort of liner. If you want casual jeans to wear after riding, then consider some amoured jeans.

EDZ undersuit.

Makes slipping on leathers a whole lot easier and they're a lot easier to wash more often than leathers.

Stockings and a basque make slipping the leather on very easy.

I would have thought you more a crotchless bodystocking kind of guy?

You're all a bunch of perverted kinky bar stewards.

Scoobs, I'm following your lead. Perhaps the thought of medics cutting my leathers off only to reveal Ann Summers gear will make me an even more cautious rider?

Thanks for the, er, insight chaps. Seriously, ta. Question answered. No more help required now. Please God don't post any more!
