I'm thinking of finally upgrading my Aerostich, which is getting to be about 20 years old (bought used back in '03 I think). I'm trying to decide whether I should go for the Aerostich R3, or stick with the Aerostich Classic (I'd probably go for the 2-piece then, which is what I have now).
My understanding is that the R3 is unlined, which is pretty appealing - I expect it's easier to get on and off, and easier to dry out if it gets wet. Any existing R3 owners with opinions on that? Does the unlined R3 feel just like a single layer of (thick) fabric?
Does the Classic version have any of the improvements/re-designs that the R3 has, like waterproof zippers, magnetic collar, and no more wet "Aerostich crotch" in the rain?
Oh yeah, and which one is more waterproof?
I'd love to hear any opinions on the R3 vs. Classic question.
