Honestly, as a new rider in a leather one-zie, you could expect oh, I would guess, something only slightly less than constant mockery.

Skins are great for the track and high-speed travel thru the countryside, but probably a bit much for the commute to your local burger shack. And in the heat of summer...= mis-er-a-ble.

Check out your options in both fiber and leather pants/jackets. More versatile, (some are true 3-season jackets) and many will zip together if that's your desire.

Nothing says you can't wear a leather jacket and fiber pants either..

Gear that fits is the key.
You are smart to be researching this stuff. Someday you'll be glad you did!
