I’m thankful I went with Large as there is plenty of room for layering (which I found useful during my initial -10 C run), and yet the suit cinches up tight and doesn’t feel excessive when wearing just jeans and a tee underneath. To help put things in perspective regarding fit, and without sounding too much like an eHarmony profile, I am 5’10” and a svelte 160 pounds, and wear a 39-40” suit coat with a 30-32” inseam I went with size Large. The suit also boasts the EZ Hem system, allowing for a tailored fit, which matches well with the height-adjustable CE knee armour. The suit is also equipped with removable CE armour in the elbows, shoulder, back protector.

The suit offers a full diagonal front zip and full-height side zip for easy entry, chest vents, full-length arm vents, back vent, waterproof thigh pockets, interior chest pocket, and 3M Scotchlite reflective striping front and rear. I felt this suit would give me that flexibility, with numerous vents for warmer temperatures and a waterproof, windproof layer. The suit piqued my interest, as I had a desire to extend my riding into the shoulder season and have the ability to make the transition from motorcycle rider to white collar worker in the matter of a few zips. The suit is available for just under $650 at FortNine, or at a motorcycle dealer with a Motovan hookup.

One or two of the CMG faithful might remember Glen Howatt from his brief stint as a CMG test rider in 2012.
