What are you folks wearing under your leathers to aid in doffing/donning of them? | ||

Alpinestars Tech-race top & pants http://www.alpinestars.com/_lp/moto_accessories_frst.htm (click on 'Go') The Summer combo is my #1 choice underneath a vented suit and the thermal combo is great in Winter. I've had mine for two years and they're wearing well. | ||

I use a Cool Max type compression top and shorts. I also use Nike cool max compression baseball socks. The socks I got at Dicks sporting goods for $13.00 for 2 pairs, and the shirt and shorts I think were about $10.00 each at Wal-Mart. It breaths great, and it doesn't bunch up under your suit. | ||

UnderArmor shirt, bicycle shorts | ||

UnderArmor thigh length shorts (compression type). Any kind of long sleeve polypro shirt - silk weight. Cabelas Ultimax liner socks. I've heard good feedback on the full body polypro suits as well - no personal experience. Henrik | ||

Grndskpr tells me he uses PVC & talcum powder, but I don't believe him; I think he uses baby oil & latex!  | ||

Under Armor - both long and short sleeves / legs.. depending on the weather... Cool max T - Normally don't have too much difficulty removing the suit after a hot and sweaty day in the broasting suit.. | ||

there is just WAY too much information in some of these posts! I've got a taichi wind-proof suit for cold weather, and it works great! leads me to think that their hot weather gear would also be aces | ||

You are supposed to wear clothes underneath.  Uh oh, uhm, yeah, uh..... Well, if I had leathers, and it was hot, I'd wear the underarmour stuff, well, kinda do that anyway with my gear as it is. | ||

Silk is the way to go. If you can't get silk, there are lightweight synthetics that work just as well. Since I can't find silks anymore, I use this stuff: http://tinyurl.com/s7xwx http://tinyurl.com/o5tre After doing a track day at Pocono in August, you really appreciate this stuff! | ||

duo fold polypro long johns, jeans, a wool shirt and usually a sweater or sweatshirt. unless it gets cold, then i put on the electric vest first, and double up on the sweaters. | ||
