    Looks to be the best of what is "out there" for cold wet weather wear.

    Looks like this would have saved the father and sons that perished.

    SEALs are issued this and other troops can be issued or can purchase at the Post Exchange.

    Anyone have any of this yet?

    GatorSkins®"Best damned riding clothes ever"

    Gatorskins® are American made 100%, from the manufacture of the fabric to the sewing of the clothing. The company is owned by a military service disabled veteran who has been riding for over 45 years.
    Gatorskins® was created in order to offer an apparel that keeps riders warm without heavy bulky garments.
    Michael Burke started Gatorskins® three years ago after searching for a material that would really keep him warm when riding his Indian on long, chilly trips. After trying all the bulky polys and fleeces, then the micros and polys that didn't work, he came upon Gatorskins® a forgotten fabric in a dusty warehouse. The long search paid off.
    Mike started from scratch. He immersed himself in the process of manufacturing the material to specific needs. Building prototype clothing pieces, testing samples, developing the clothing line into exactly what was needed for motorcyclists and others who spend time out of doors in cold weather.
    Being an owner of a motorcycle clothing and accessories store (Renegade Classics of York PA), he knows exactly what riders need on cold days. Gatorskin®fill the need.
    Gatorskins® thermals are the warmest and best solution for cold weather motorcycle riding. In fact, they are a fantastic warm body answer for any outdoor activity in cold weather. Knitted from an extremely thin and lightweight material that moves with the wearer. A breathable, rugged fabric that is water repellent and warms three times better than wool. Great stuff!

    The Gatorskins® technology was developed by researchers from a new leading edge material. This micro fabric is knitted from ultra microfibers that are smaller than a human red blood cell, yet they hold a greater amount of warm air next to the body than traditional fabrics of equal or greater thickness. Gatorskins® will keep you warmer in the cold and drier in wet weather and still breath better than any other water repellent material you have tried.

    Gatorskins® are proudly made in the U.S.A. All the products are cut, sewn and embroidered right here in Pennsylvania. The glove liners fabric is here in the states as well, however, "Assembled" in Pakistan. So they do NOT fall under the Gatorskins trademark. For this reason, we call them "Little Gators".
