Gear: Whenitpours.com waterproof sleeves
Have you ever had "waterproof" gear soak all the way through? Or drenched everything in a surprisingly deep water crossing? Or had your top case leak and hold a half gallon of standing water? WhenItPours.com waterproof sleeves will save your phone (and other electronics) from certain death in situations like these. I kept our iPad and iPhones in these sleeves during our ten-day Goldwing Tour, ...

His and Hers: Boots made for walking
Packing for our west coast Goldwing tour, we each opted to bring along an extra pair of shoes (which took up valuable space in the saddle bags). Would our new riding boots be comfortable enough to walk around in? How about hiking? Days when we weren't really on the bike much? As it turns out, we could have saved the trouble and the space. Sean's Icon Reign boots and my Alpinestars Stella Armada bo...

Why you should reconsider the Alpinestars Messenger Jacket
The Alpinestars Messenger Jacket is supposed to offer affordable, stylish, all-weather protection for commuters and city riders. Until now, it didn't, but now it does. Here's why. In 2009 Alpinestars announced the city collection. The concept was simple: stylish motorcycle gear with minimal branding that doesn't look like motorcycle gear when you're off the bike. Back in 2009, I was working as ...

Gear: Alpinestars Scout Waterproof Boots
Alpinestars claims that these Scout Waterproof Boots are good for wearing on both dual sports and sport tourers. Looking at their tall uppers, huge buckles and thick soles, I was skeptical of that. But, after wearing them on a WR250R, Moto Guzzi Norge and Shamu, they totally do work across a range of riding positions. They’re way more flexible than they look, honestly waterproof, rugged and low ...

Knox Zero OutDry: dry hands
Rather than simply include a waterproof membrane “bootie” loosely stitched inside the shell, these Knox Zero OutDry gloves take advantage of new laminated membrane technology to completely seal water out of the glove. No more sodden insulation, water can’t get past the outer shell. Working in a similar fashion to Gore-Tex Pro Shell Leather, OutDry is a new process for bonding a totally w...

Alpinestars nails the bargain waterproof jacket
Fully waterproof thanks to a Drystar lining and equipped with the same Bioarmor elbow and shoulder armor as the $1,2995 Alpinestars 365 Gore-Tex Leather Jacket, it might come to you as a surprise that these two jackets carry a very low price tag. The short Alpinestars Kinetic Jacket is priced at $300 and the 3/4 length Alpinestars Messenger Jacket is $200. Both also come with pockets for back and ...

Alpinestars 365 Gore Tex suit made from leather, yet 100% waterproof
This It's not just the laminate that makes this material special. The leather itself is treated to improve its performance in a wide range of weather conditions. To make it more suitable for hot weather, a special dye is added to the leather to make it capable of reflecting up to 30 percent of the sun's energy. The suit is also breathable, allowing a rider's body ...
