I'm still working on my collection but here's what I have so far...

Joe Rocket Pheonix 2.0 Gloves
Joe Rocket Atomic 2.0 Textile Sport Jacket
HJC CS-12 Look Helmet
and
10" steel toe combat boots until I find something better (and $$$).

Yesterday was my first day in the jacket and helmet (old helmet was an HJC Von Breaker) and I was pleased with the look and feel of it all.  It was about 75 yesterday and the vents in the jacket kept me cool enough to raise hairs with just a t-shirt underneath.

Alpinestars V4 Jacket
Alpinestars Track Pants
Alpinestars SMX Boots
Alpinestars SMsomething Gloves
Shoei RF1000 Helmet

I'm thinking about picking up the Icon TiMax gloves (short).  Rumor has it that they're not the best gloves in the world, but I like "I just murdered someone" look.  I would only use them for commuting (to scare cagers).

If you're looking into short gloves, look at some Alpinestars SPS gloves. I have them and they're awesome. Only use them for hot weather, though. If it's cold, I'll wear my SP-1 gloves.
