Glad to see you both have improved your riding gear in 40 years, especially Mrs. Ferret! Sandals, oh my!
Of course I'm sure my gear wasn't much better back then. (That era was kinda foggy!). Of course there wasn't much true riding gear available back in those days either.
Again, Awesome Post!

Brooks leathers jackets and Bell Star Helmets were the hot set up in 1977. lol
But that was High Tech compared to the Arai half helmets my parents wore.
Before that we wore green army coats and Bell 500 XT helmets open face helmets
Nobody made motorcycle specific boots then that I recall, and only a couple mfgs made motorcycle specific gloves.
