I'm looking for recommendations for a one-piece suit to commute in this winter. Suggestions?

it's not the ultimate $1200 suit and it's a little "michelin man-ish" (don't worry what people think it looks like - if it's that cold out, they probably already assume you're crazy).

i've used the same one for 4 years and it's holding up well.

wearing jeans and a sweatshirt underneath, it's comfy to 30 degrees. you'll fry over 60 degees.

check around for better pricing, too.

I don't understand the sizing, I'm 5'9", 38 waist, 30"inseam, Sleve 32".  The Thermo suit sizing http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/421/MNGR_POP/SIZE-CHART.ASPX does not make sense, can you provide any comment on that. Also can the legs be tailored? Thanks - Gene
