Olympia Stealth One-Piece Mesh Tech Suit

The one-piece Stealth suit offers great protection and maximum airflow. It is constructed of Dupont Cordura® with ballistic nylon mesh panels; the shoulder, back, elbow, and knee pads offer added safety; and with all the airflow, there isn't a one-piece suit similar to it on the market today. A terrific commuter suit (but also great for long-distance touring), it's sized to fit over street clothes, has large chest and side pockets, and it's easy to get in and out of – the front zipper extends to the knee, and there are hip-to-ankle zippers on the side. And though some one-piece suits feel very stiff for a while, the lightweight Stealth is comfortable from the get-go.

Wearing it on a two-week tour in the hot and muggy middle of the summer was a fine idea – I was certainly glad to have all the airflow – and when taking longer breaks for pictures or coffee, I was freed from miserably sweating away as I normally do in full leathers. Instead, I just took off the Stealth suit and walked around in my shorts and a T-shirt. The bright neon stripes along the arms and legs provide high visibility too, another reason why I enjoy wearing it on the way to work.
