full leathers for winter riding...does it work?

For me, the key difference is layering. With my current gear, there's room for an extra fleece jacket and thermals, plus my heated underlayers. The armor simply cinches down to accommodate. With properly fitting leathers, there is less room, plus the suit becomes stiff once you have to stuff yourself into it.

My motivation to change was mostly to avoid having to rely on rain gear.
