This shield cut fogging substantially down to temps as low as high 30s. Optics and visibility are great. Fits my helmet very well.

I got these this spring, and have used them for spring, fall and now early winter. I have worn them down into the upper 20's. My bike has heated grips and handguards (1200GS) and they have stayed very warm. The upper 20's was a little rough on my thumbs, but what do you expect at highway speeds.
The wrist gaiter is my favorite part. It allows a nice tight seal around the sleeve of all my jackets. These aren't summer gloves, but that's not what I bought them for. Run a tad small so order a size up.

I got these boots for commuting. I throw the dress shoes in the backpack and wear these. They seem very well made and sturdy.
They flow a lot of air, and I don't have any problems with the lace cover velcro. The laces slide very easily inside the eyelets, so you can loosen and tighten them with one hand. I am actually going to get a couple small cordlocks to use instead of tying the laces.
They are a little bit clunky, I feel a little goofy wearing them with my work clothes for the walk in from the parking lot.

I've worn it every day since I got it. Wear it on rides to and from work with a polo shirt underneath. Very comfortable in all temperatures I've used it in. 65F to 95F. Tons of air flow, even with a backpack on covering rear panel.
I am 6-3, 205lb, athletic build, and I got the XXL. Sleeve length is perfect, length at waist is great. was a little tight across the top of the shoulders until I popped open the 2-position snaps on the bicep and just left them open.
Love it.
Yes, I recommend this product.
