Good post Maverick
Same problem I’ve had over many years, reminder to self “ must sell some old/unused gear”
I bought a Dainesse two piece textile suit 3 years ago, can’t remember the name at the moment,
Mid priced suit, I don’t ride all year mind, so being completely waterproof can’t say, but I’ve ridden through some bad weather on a trip to Italy and it coped well, only thing I would say is the crotch area was damp!!!

“but they all do that sir”
And gloves!! Well don’t get me started.....
We will have to meet up some time as fairly local to you?
