A guy I know at work has a long sleeve shirt and pair of pants that are made of an under armor stlye outer layer with a fleece liner inside. He told me they are called "warm skins". I'm not sure if I'm spelling it wrong, but I can't find the stuff anywhere online. Does anyone on the forum know of something similar and where I can find some?

I work for a dealership and have for many years, I also ride year round and as of yet i have never heard of such things, Now I know there are a layer of clothes that will keep you warm or cool depending on the situation but they are very thin and don't look like body armor...
Get a bit more info and I bet i can find it:cool:

Under Armor is not like body armor it's a very thin fabric - similar to spandex - but completely different textile material.
I've been using "cold gear" from Academy Sporting Goods for a base layer, followed by polypropylene (love that stuff!)
wmg1299 - I haven't heard of what you described.
I'd suggest you look at on-line sports/hiking/outdoor stores, Gander Mountain, REI, etc. Good luck!
