Evening chaps,

Im trying to decide between getting the Aldi Compression underwear vs the Wind Protection base layer.

Im a bit sceptical about what benefit the compression layer would have.

Im already pretty compressed in my leathers from being too lazy to get my fat ass out running.... Rolling Eyes

the compression layers are brilliant. I bought a set last time they were on offer. keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer plus they wick away sweat. Wink

I always were a compression layer for any sport or motorcycle activity. Just consider it underwear.

The windlayer, if it's like the old lidl ones will be rubbish. Only the chest section was windproof on the old ones. Of course the wind just went around it and got you on the non-windproof bits.

I don't get why you'd need a wind protection base layer. Doesn't your jacket keep the wind out? My textile one does.

Fucking grow up and and remove the sand from your vagina.

Fucking underpants?

I has carbon fiber knuckles on my gloves. The day I worry about my underpants is the day I remove my testicles with a blunt spoon.

Jacket has a lots of mesh jacket. Even though it has a supposed windproof liner it's not that great.

I use a modular system, so I can always adapt to the weather. I do a lot of touring.
