I wear a leather alpinestars jacket, shark rsx helmet, work boots, blue jeans, and alpinestars short leather gloves. I want to buy leather riding pants that zip at the jacket but money is tight (college student).

With florida heat you can buy a mesh jacket for the best airflow, however it doesn't protect as good as textiles or especially leather. I own a mesh jacket and wore it for a couple weeks, but I pretty much always wear my leather now I just feel more comfortable knowing if I go down i'm wearing leather.

i wear a shoei x-11 helmet, dainese "delta perforated" pants, dainese "piston" glove, vertigo corsa sidi boots and a

dainese "horizon tex" jacket...it's a new tech. textile stronger than leather (d-stone fabric). these protect you really good but a bit pricey!

Scorpion exo-400 helmet, Joe Rocket UFO jacket, Knox aegis back protector (highly recommended!), Joe Rocket gloves, and Alpinestars knee/shin protectors under jeans. I'm upgrading soon though to Teknic Chicane pants and jacket that zip together.

Cortech GX jacket, Cortech HRX pants, Icon Domain 2 helmet, and some sort of shorty kevlar gloves... can't remember the brand.

Oh, and $0.99 Walmart sandals, because boots are for pussies. :-P
