Women's R-3 Light Tactical One Piece
The Tactical model eliminates the double-layer of abrasion-resistant fabric at the elbow/shoulder and knee areas. While slightly decreasing the total abrasion resistance at these areas, this allows the ultralight weight Tactical to wear even cooler and provides slightly more ease of movement. Everything else is the same as an R-3 Light. Available colors: black, grey, or hi-viz lime yellow.

Jump in, zip up and go. The R-3 'Lights' prioritize every day commuting and errand running. All-in-one protection from weather and other mayhem, with your destination street clothing beneath. Perfect for short-hop on-and-off-the-bike urban use. Also wears great for relaxed day-long rides and on tours of any length.
Advanced zipper and flap designs make this an absolutely waterproof one piece riding suit, and this lighter weight model provides a slightly cooler-wearing experience during hot conditions, too. The suit maintains all the time-tested Roadcrafter design elements for unsurpassed function and a better fit.
R3 Light innovations include completely waterproof zippers, a snap down collar with removable magnetic hold-open clasps, a hidden water-resistant wallet/phone/iPod pocket and custom adjustable impact armor positions.
Options include Integrated Boot Raincovers, Chest Impact and Insulation Pads (Standard and Electric/Heated versions), Boot Raincovers, Back and Hip Armor and all the other Roadcrafter options.
The R-3 Light's outer fabric has an abrasion resistance about two-thirds that of an R-3, but still provides real-world protection. May also be worn without any of its Impact Armor for weather or abrasion protection that packs away very compactly.
Twelve color combinations: Grey, Black, or Hi-Viz body colors with Grey, Black, or Hi-Viz abrasion areas. Standard machine washable (with removal of collar magnets). Men's 34 regular and 36โ54 short, regular or long. Women's 2-20 short, regular or long. Choose TF3 or TF6 armor. Made in America and Imported.

More Sizing Info:
Between Sizes:
Overall length* difference is 1 1โ4".
- Example - 42 (S, R or L) suit is 1 1โ4" longer (taller) overall than a size 40 (S, R or L) suit.
Short to Regular:
Overall length* difference is 3".
- Example - A 42S is 3" shorter than a 42R.
- Leg length difference is +1" above & +1โ2" below the knee. The remaining 1 1โ2" is in the Torso.
- Sleeve difference is 1 1โ4", shoulder to wrist.
Regular to Tall:
Overall length* difference is 2".
- Example - A 42L is 2" longer (taller) than a 42R.
- Leg length difference is +1โ2" above knee & +1โ2" below the knee. The remaining 1" is in the Torso.
- Sleeve difference is 1".
* Overall length = collar to ankle
We can adjust the sleeve lengths, elbow armor position, leg length, knee armor position, and many other variables, but we cannot change the body/torso length. For semi-custom fitted garments, we start with the body/torso size that is the closest and change the arms and legs as needed.
A great fit is critical to the long-term enjoyment and satisfaction of any garment. This is something we do better than anyone else with graded off the rack sizes. There are about 32 standard R-3 sizes vs. about 8 with typical S, M, L, XL grading. If the crotch in an R-3 is slightly binding, the garment will never have a chance to become your 'go to' riding gear, and I'd like it to have that chance.
One piece coveralls are the best gear for day-to-day short-hop utility riding because they work as a complete protection system all in one garment. But like mechanic's and trade-worker's coveralls, for comfort the crotch needs to be low enough to never bind.
