Thirdly, you’ll continue to get soaked whilst you go through the irritating rigmarole of trying to get the pants on over your boots (even though you know from experience that you can’t.) I wanted something that I could carry on long trips, that if the heavens opened, I could stop and put on at the roadside, without sitting down or taking my boots off.It is important to remember what these suits don’t do.

I put all my bike gear on and did a trial run and failed. Couldn't get my boots through the legs. Not because the legs were too tight but because the lining in the suit would snag onto the boots and turn itself inside out as my foot came out of the bottom of the leg.
