Is it going to ruin the leathers at all? I assume the stiffness will work itself out with a few rides?

Also, how do you prevent the dyes from leaching into the clothes underneath?

I would be more worried it would look like your wearing spandex when your done.LOL
I havent owned any to test in the rain for ya. I will be buyinfg some textile soon thow, I like the Jacket and pants. Sorry I was no help. :bonk:

If you end up getting drenched in your leathers, they'll dry it out but it takes a couple days usually of being hung up for them to get back to being dry again.

Underarmor is great, and you can get off brands of it that work just as good.. get em in black that way if any die does leak from new leathers, u cant see it as much.

Get some good leather dressing, and rub it in well. Give it time to let it work in, and do it again. The more you do this, the better your leathers will last, and the less any water will affect them. If they're already wet, let them dry out, and then hit them with the dressing.

As to the dye running on the inside, wear a crap t shirt underneath if you're worried, and you only need to be worried the first time it happens!

I've never had dye leak onto my clothes. As a matter of fact...my leather has always kept me dry.

Been rained on for hundreds of miles :crazy: Good leathers with dressing will repell water, dry out. Gloves are another story :willy:
While riding in rain only dye stains, will be from gloves

I use Lexol leather conditioner on my leathers. Motorcycle Consumer News tested a bunch of cleaners and conditioners several years ago. Lexol was the best. I got it at Ace Hardware.
