Re: [ST] Re: Aerostich

[Bryce <bster13@xxxxxxxxx>]

Like stated b4 I have the port.  They may not havr the
1 piece anymore but they do have nice two pieces, and
they don't take but a minute to get on and off.  

Motoport's cordura is twice the strength of the Aero. 
So if u feel protected in to Aero while going down try
the Port out.  My SO wears the same Ultra II Cordura
Jacket and pants, nothing but the best for her.  My
motoport with zip in Goretex liner IS 100% waterproof,
not water resistant lie the Aero.  Also what happens
when u have that nice gortex woven into your Aero suit
and u want to open up those vents when it's raining? 
Guess what happens.  hehe  I wear the Port because for
less $ it provides better protection, better range for
the weather with the assorted liners.

Good luck,

Bryce
