    In Response to Jeremy: Think of it as an investment. I paid a big chunk of change for my Roadcrafter in 1997, but for the next twenty years I didn’t spend one thin dime on jackets, pants or rain gear. Pretty certain I came out ahead. Like an electric car, a Stich costs more up front but pays for itself (and then some) in the long term.

    Yeah, this “have to be old” to wear an Aerostich thing is funny. I was 33 when I bought my first one, and rode a VFR 750(I’ve never owned a BMW). I still wear the same suit 25 years later! I do have another one in a different color that I’ve had for about 21 years. I could afford them back then…not sure that I could now, just like Arai helmets, I love them, they fit me the best, but they’re way expensive now. I love showing up at bike gatherings or get togethers in my old faded Roadcrafter. Function over fashion for me.

    You should put out an aerostich “terrible fart bag suit” T-shirt … Sure it would quicky become a best seller.

    My terrible fart bag suit has been my go-to for very frequent riding for 15 years. At 41 years old, that means that I bought the suit at 26 years of age. I had to wait to that age to have the income to afford the suit. My Roadcrafter gets washed as frequent as other suits get replaced. In fact, I now have one Roadcrafter and two Darien suits. It is hands down the best value in motorcycle protection. And yes, the one-piece may vent the fart out the neck opening. Small price to pay for an excellent product.

    Man, I wish I knew I was supposed to wait until 60 to buy my Roadcrafter–would have saved my 23 year-old self a relatively sizeable chunk of change. Now almost 20 years later, I just have to make sure I can still fit in the thing…
