Saw these in the last clothes catalog HD sent me. I wondered how they held up being washed? Are they better than Base long johns? I am planning on doing a lot of riding this winter and am looking for more warmth on my ride.

 

Under armor works great underneath your jeans, and still gives you flexibility, then just wear some chaps.

 

Best & cheapest winter wear I've had was a one pc snowmobile suit rode in single digits with it . Next is a set of Carhart insulated arctic bibs , under a hundred bucks and easy on and off . Fuc the overpriced MoCo **** . You want warm look at real work wear skip the fashion statement .

 

have them ,have ridden to near 0 comfortably , mine are the heated overpants , have the vest and gloves too , makes riding in the cold pretty comfy. lot less bulky than carharts warmer too

 

Snowmobile gear works great. It might not look cool, but it certainly is warm. And, it doesn't have to be expensive.

 

Yeah, but how do you keep your legs far enough away from the pipes at stops?

 

The Harley stuff has been made in the past by Gerbing's. You can buy the exact same stuff under the Gerbing label for a lot less, with a lifetime guarantee.

Check out the overpant, rather than the liner, although they are a lot more expensive than the liner. We lucked out and found their discontinued Union Ridge overpants on eBay.

They also have a clearance store at http://heatedclothingoutlet.com/index.shtml

 

Shorter bike or longer legs , never had a problem with mine at 5'10"

 

I've always worn poly pro long underwear(same for skiing) with my winter gear and stay nice and warm.

 

A few years ago, some of our riding buddies had bought heated gear, and bragged about how good they worked, wearing only their light Gold Wing jackets over the heated liner. We went to the Davis Rallye in NE Iowa, which is the week after Labor Day, and it turned into a wet, cold weekend. Those of us who had worn our heavy leathers were nice and warm walking around, while they froze, and they ended up buying expensive hoodies and other items at the rallye just to say warm.
