I am also an ATGATT type of rider as well BUT I will say that practical gear is gear that you will wear. If you cannot in your own head justify wearing armored pants and boots everytime but will definitely wear a jacket and gloves (helmet assumed), then so be it. It would be the very definition of impractical for you to buy the most expensive pants and boots but know that you arent going to wear them.

For pants, if you can swing it... $180 gets you jean looking cordura jean style pants at motoport. It's highly recommended that you consider those. It gives you high level of protection for a very subtle toned down look.
