Aerostich Emergency Rain Boot & Pants Covers Owners Guide

You know who you are. You’re among friends here...but across the world of ordinary people, regular workplaces, common hardware stores, consumerized shopping malls, offices, workshops and chain grocery stores…the Road Grimed Astronaut goes a long way. Because most people have no idea.

Let us explain. Do people in grocery stores and gas stations see your onesie coverall or teched-out armored adventure suit as peculiar? Have you ever ridden past a bedraggled looking group of bevested and bechapped riders standing around under a freeway overpass smoking cigarettes and waiting for the rain to stop…and did you smile inside your helmet as you went by? Do bearded hipsters regard the uncoolness of your wonderful habiliment from saddles of their fenderless aircleanerless purified bikes or (more likely) thru their car windows as you ride by them in traffic on a cold dark day?

If some of this is slightly familiar, you are a Road Grimed Astronaut. You have the right stuff. So you might want this.

About thirty (+-) years ago a co-worker in our fabric cutting area asked for some kind of apron or smock to protect their street clothing from the glues used to make TF Impact armor, and also from the constant rubbing when one leans over against the side rails of our fabric cutting tables. Here is a refined-over-the-years version of what we came up with.  Over time, several customers touring our facility have asked if they could buy one, and now you (and they) can. If you had asked, sorry for the long wait, here they are now.

Two versions: Brown 8.25 oz waxed cotton and Black 500D Cordura nylon. Both feature adjustable 1" nylon shoulder straps to fine-tune fit, an adjustable waist buckle strap to secure it around your midsection, and three deep pockets perfect for tools, small parts, or just about anything else you want quick access to. The chest pocket works great for a pen, notepad, or smartphone. We recommend the waxed cotton if you’re welding and/or backyard BBQ-ing. For most other uses, go with Cordura. Made by us to last at least as long as you do, probably longer. Made in America. One size fits most.

The Deluxe Belt uses 1" beadless tubular webbing, but a 3/4" Fastex™ buckle to reduce bulk, making it easier to slide through belt loops. Looks dressier. In black or brown. Even waist sizes 28" through 46".

This is a simple, functional piece of rider’s clothing. The Face Fairing has a hook & loop closure tab that adjustably fits most neck sizes. It can be worn in two positions: like a cowboy outrider, draped low around the neck to warm and protect the chest; or drawn over the nose and mouth when protection from the elements is needed. We now make them with a softer and more comfortable windproof/water resistant WINDSTOPPER® fabric. Hypotenuse 24", Base 16". (XL version hypotenuse is 26".) Black or red.

The zippered compartment on the back is long enough for three stacks of bills placed end-to-end. This is a discreet way to carry hoards of fifties or hundreds on long trips… or just a safe place to forget a single “emergency” dollar. A flat row of quarters will fit, too. One size fits all. Belt can be shortened by cutting and fusing. Black nylon webbing 1.25" wide, 46" long. Durable cam-action black nylon buckle (money not included).

Keep your chest and core warmer, with an easy to install Chest Insulation Pad. Extends the funtionality of the RoadcrafterLight into cooler riding conditions. Made from Windstopper® with a soft micro-fleece inner layer. Self-stores in a built-in pocket. Black.

A hat like this is a simple thing. It seems. But not really. The purpose of this cap is to be compact enough and light enough to be able to be stored un-noticably in the front long-zip pocket of any of an Aerostich (or other) riding suit or jacket, so when your helmet comes off you can protect your head, and shield the sun from your eyes.

The Standard Belt uses 1" beadless tubular nylon webbing and a Fastex™ buckle to create a light, strong belt that can also be used for a variety of strapping jobs. Adjustable, one size fits all. In black or brown. 40" long.

This is a simple, functional piece of rider’s clothing. The Face Fairing has a hook & loop closure tab that adjustably fits most neck sizes. It can be worn in two positions: like a cowboy outrider, draped low around the neck to warm and protect the chest; or drawn over the nose and mouth when protection from the elements is needed.

Say you park on the sixth floor of a large parking ramp when it suddenly comes under heavy attack by a group of militant anti-motorcyclists and the only way out is a 200 yard slide down a lightly insulated power line straight onto the roof of a neighboring building. Would you trust your current belt for that slide? I don’t think so! These belts are for those who need to be able to count on their gear in the worst possible scenario. We love them for jeans because they fit very comfortably, look cool in all situations, and are lightweight. In a pinch they can be used as an additional tie-down strap and the fall-rated buckle is easy to use and infinitely adjustable. These types of extreme belts are hard to find in these widths which fit standard belt loops. Simple, classy, and strong, like Bond…James Bond. Lengths measure: Sm. 40", Med. 44", Large 47.5".

Light Duty

Lightweight, strong and comfortable for everyday wear. 1.5" wide. M or L. Black.

That cool bike you've got sitting between your legs is officially recognized by the U.S. Federal Government as much more than an amusing toy. These are exact replicas of the signs above the HOV lanes across the freeways of California. They are a reminder that motorcycles are given extra privileges because riding them is social good. We all know that. Unfortunately most of your neighbors don’t. They’re positive motorcycles are self-indulgent toys -- Including yours. Let them know all fifty states have a totally different view, and have installed signs like these above our busiest and most congested roads to announce and declare: MOTORCYCLES OK. Officially. No equivocation. The government knows that choosing riding helps all of us, every time a rider gets on their motorcycle instead of getting into a car. (...thanks Brian)
