These socks keep my feet dry and comfy. They fit large and will come up to just below the knee. Wish I had bought these when I first started riding. Watch out for velcro on boots or pants as it will cause the material to frey. Definitely recommend
Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought this seat to help with long bike rides as the stock seat is very thin and not supportive. The Sargent seat is a very good and high quality product. The concerns that I have are about ergonomics. The comfort of the seat is spot on, but due to either the material, additional seat height and slight angle of the seat, it forces your crotch into the tank. When I squeeze the tank with my legs/knees then I slide forward on the seat until I contact the tank. I have tried with several different pant material and it still happens. Even if you are barely squeezing the tank with your legs, any bumps in the road will make you slide on the seat. I believe that it has to do with the extra height this seat gives plus the angle of the seat. I am tempted to put the stock seat back on....
Yes, I recommend this product.

This item keeps your head, ears, and face warm. I was very impressed with how warm it kept me and how comfortable it fit. My helmet was not too tight and my vision was not blocked in anyway. Very glad that I bought this as it will extend my riding season and provide much needed comfort on those cold rides.

Summer Touring Socks from Alpinestars Nostatex sole for wicking moisture away from skin Ribbed design reduces bunching at the heel and ankle Strategically positioned mesh areas for maximum comfort Mid calf length
 

Sock thickness

Are these socks thick enough to fill out a boot that has a little bit if wiggle room?

Icon Patrol Waterproof Overpants Anyone who has ridden in the rain knows it's your legs that bear the brunt of the precipitation. From tire spray to wind blast to passing vehicles - keeping your lower half dry has been a challenge. Until now. Introducing The Patrol Waterproof Pant. Built using the same materials and techniques as the jacket, the Patrol Waterproof Pant will go the distance with unmatched safety, comfort, and weather protection. To keep out the wind and rain, the abrasion resistant nylon chassis is fully seam-sealed and includes full-leg waterproof YKK zippers and quick action magnetic storm flaps. Housed within the chassis is a full complement of Field Armor CE approved impact protectors. Finally, the 3M reflective graphics package ensures you'll be seen on the darkest nights. Features Removable Icon CE field armor impact protector knee Removable Icon CE field armor impact protector hip Waterproof seam sealed construction YKK waterproof zippers Magnetic storm flap closures 3M reflective panels Six storage pockets Full-length side zippers Removable suspender system These pants are sized to fit as overpants. If you wear a size 34 pant-buy a size 34 Patrol Overpant if you intend to wear them over your jeans. If you plan on running commando-buy a size 32
 

What are the characteristics of the outer shell?

Can anyone comment on the outer shell and its composition? Is this going to hold up in a slide? I didn't see any specifics in the product description and just wondering about the safety features of this garment.
