I was considering Difi(motoport) Ultra II pant but then the jacket is
not very comfortable (to say the least)
in the collar area (I'm not endowed with a pencil neck, there is no
fleece, the collar is not tall: i want a turtleneck
style windproof collar).
I'm skinny-fat and therefore freeze and overheat easily, and, thus,
I don't need the suit to work in summer. It only has to keep me warn
in winter.
What are my options. (I haven't kept abreast of gear development in
the last 5-7 years so
you can start at the fabric: has kevlar replaced heavy denier cordura?
drawbacks?).
Is aerostitch still the suit of choice? are they heavily backlogged
now?

I'm in the US and the temperatures are typically above 32F (0C) where
I live.
thanks!

You should look into Aerostich. They will talk to you over the phone and
customize the fit on what is widely considered to be the best textile
riding suit.

If you want to try it on, there's an Olympia dealer in my town. I may or may
not be close to you. Probably not, if it never gets below 32F where you live.

Today I drove by the campground and saw two faucets spraying fountains toward
the sky. It was 5F last night. Today I fixed faucets and winterized the place.

ok, i'm about to join this band. Is it a good idea to order the liner
at the same time or they can easily figure out the sizing after one
has the suit?
I assume with 500 denier shell the whole thing can be rolled
into about a size of a full face helmet?
