I have a leather jacket, riding boots, and my helmet 24/7.
Currently saving for some pants.
Wicked fall though...

As they say, you don't dress for the ride, you dress for the crash.

I've got full leathers, helmet, gloves, and boots that I always wear...
Even then I want to upgrade my boots/gloves and add an additional back protector as soon as $$ permits.
If I could ride in an iron-man suit, I would.  | |
