Bike Shorts Sun Suits--Leg Styles


Figure 1.--These two Australian boys wear front zipper sunsuits, and the older boy on the left wears the steamer ling-leg version. The image is dated about 1994.

Some of the suits look like a steamer with long sleeves and long legs. This style, however, is not nearly as popular as the short leg style. HBC is not sure what boys think about long-leg unsuits. They probably are more widely worn near the end of the summer when the water begins to cool.
