Motorcycle protection apparel is always a must. This also includes motorcycle suits as well. Reason being suits offer protection in case of a fall; because they are substantially have armor protection to offer for knees, back, elbows, shins, shoulders, hips so, you can also put on your work clothes, put a riding suit over your work clothes in about 30 seconds, drive to work in pretty much any temperature whether rain or shine, and get there in decent shape. It would take about maximum 30 seconds to remove the riding suit. Industry of motorcycle clothing has really gone advanced during the past few years with advances in manufacturing techniques, materials and product development and there are almost no more bikers being conventional buyers. Leather used to be the only material for motorcycling clothing in past but now a choice of materials including Cordura is very popular and high in demand. This material is lighter than leather making racing suits more comfortable whilst riding and are also far better for protection against the harsh cold or scorching hot weather conditions. D600 Cordura material has fantastic anti abrasion and wear and tear properties.

I agree in general that having the appropriate "attire" is a good idea when riding any kind of motorcycle, I disagree that a complete riding suit is something you can convince your typical cruiser rider to wear. I do recall from my MSF course that they do recommend wearing clothing that will cover, and hopefully protect, your entire body - legs, arms, hands, head, etc. Motorcycling is often considered a "lifestyle" and many riders choose to reflect that lifestyle in the way they dress when they ride. Folks that ride without helments are often referred to as future organ donors, the ones who ride wearing shorts and a T-shirt Here in the hot Alabama summer I wear a Mesh riding jacket with armor and jeans, helmet, & gloves. I like to be comfortable and reasonably safe,,,,,,, Any other thoughts???? //George//

You have a couple of options. Draggin Jeans have been around for a while. Some of the manufacturers have started making mesh pants and jeans with kevlar wear points. eg (not a recomendation, just the 1st example I found): http://www.joerocket.com/catalog/index.cfm/114/131/Pants/Phoenix_2.0_Pant http://www.joerocket.com/catalog/index.cfm/114/376/Pants/Rocket_Jeans
At this point, you can find similar type of gear at most companies.
