Anybody have any experience with the Alpinestars Drystar360 oversuit?
It looks like what I want in a rainproof oversuit.  I am curious how waterproof it is, if the zippers are any good, etc.

The Stitch I had left me with a soaked crotch every time it rained, really embarrasing in social events. And customer service was worthless, so I have no interest in giving them any more of my $$$. Mad2

I just replaced mine with a 'Stich suit. The A* suit is completely waterproof and doesn't leak in the crotch area due to the offset zippers. It also has a more "fitted" look than the 'Stich.
 
Downsides to the A* are the zipper configuration that keeps you dry, also makes it more difficult to get into than the Roadcrafter and the relative lack of pockets.
 
I'vd had my 'Stich suit leak on me once in a very heavy downpour, so I know what you're talking about, but for me the convenience of "stepping" in and out of it the other 99% of the time offsets the occasional damp crotch.
