Been looking for a pair of thermal underwear and was considering the Gator skins. Can anyone recommend long underwear that resists wind at riding speeds? I usually wear lined jeans in the colder weather. Last year I had a set of silk light weight thermals. They didn't quite hit the mark when it got 30'ish. I don't wear chaps and doubt I ever will. I just don't like the look or the weight.
Wind resistant long johns?

Leather over-pants are much better than chaps. Leather is your wind break. Long johns are storage for air warmed by the body. Rain suits are also quite good as wind breaks.
What kill over time are any leaks in your outfit. Good seals around openings and seams is paramount. Try one of the good rain suits. When it is super cold, I wear my rainsuit over my leathers. Teh results are almost like a snowmomile suit. Leaks are still the biggest issue.

Motorcyclegear.com - TPG Winter Basegear Pants & Top. Has windstopper on the front of garment. $62.96 for each. Have not tried them personally but I'm going to buy a set to go over my wicking (Armor) gear.
Just my luck in the whole state of Va. not one store with 1 announced future location almost on the Tenn./Ky. border.
