The Survivor Suit has become my go to piece of gear since it arrived from New Enough. My riding is commuting and touring in all weather. I purchased the size L suit to fit my 5'8" 165 size 42 measurements. The suit is a snug fit, slightly long in the legs. On the bike it is PERFECT and very comfortable. The snugness of the fit combined with short leg zippers makes it a bit awkward to put on over boots with larger heels. The Big Air Feature of the suit works very well and I have used it comfortably in temps to 85F. I've used the suit on some rainy days here and always arrived clean and dry.I use the suit without the one piece liner and find I need to wear a light jacket underneath it to be warm at temps 60F and lower. A two piece liner would be a welcome addition to this design. The only other negative I have is once the suit is on there is no access to your pant pockets without undoing the main zipper. Bottom line is once you go one piece it is hard to go back to two piece gear (I have a closet full) and the Joe Rocket Survivor Suit is an excellent choice at an outstanding price from New Enough.
