Commuting every day. Using Darien Jacket & Pants.....for years.
Post of the week! Can't tell you how many stupid looks I get at the gym when. I pop my gear off with ready to left gym others on underneath.I'm an ATGATT guy that commutes to work where I have to don nomex flight gear 5 days a week. To make the ATGATT commitment the brand is not as important as the desire to not compromise your commitment to protection. If you are looking for high quality motorcycle protection that you can do yoga in... boss it does not exist.
The bottom line is... Wait for it... Strategy! Yeah, strategy! You have got to learn how to doff and don that gear with the precision of an Olympic athlete. I've been able to do it for years despite the severe limitations of my job.
I've learned to work out in some of my riding gear. I've learned to wear work out gear under my skid gear for quick change. I bought as much skid gear... boots in particular, with zippers to facilitate quick change.
Clark Kent ain't got nothing on me.

There is another "step-in" one piece suit similar to the Aerostich for the fraction of the price. I can't remember who makes it and I have no experience with it. An option though. Look up Olympia Odyessy.
As for the Aerostich, it is convenient but it has its disadvantages. I am on my second but last Roadcrafter II since first using one since 1992.
Sounds like you're disenchanted with the Roadcrafter? Could you explain why?
Plus 1. I can't be comfortable riding like the fair-weather riders here do with blue jeans and a nylon jacket. I know the pavement down the block a half mile away is just as hard and abrasive as it is if I was to ride 500 miles to get to it.I don't have another vehicle other than my motorcycles & I wear full gear even if I go 1 mile to the store. I use Olympia gear & I upgrade all of the padding to level 2 amour. The Olympia pants are very easy & fast to put on & take off. Because I ride year round in all types of weather I have several different types of Olympia gear.
