| I've worn these pants twice in cool weather. They're really warm, but hard to get on over my boots. The fit was snug even with one size up. The cheap plastic belt loop broke while tightening the belt so I replaced it with a metal quick link connector (like you would use on a safety chain for a trailer). Better than new now. |

| like others say, order big. I ordered two sizes up. They fit very snugly in the hips, and cannot be worn as overpants.
I wanted overpants, so these didn't work out and I returned them. |

| I bought these pants a month ago and have worn them every day to work and back in 100 degree Texas heat, cold mornings, hard rain, you name it. The inner liner kept me totally dry in a 3 hour trip through our recent tropical storm "IKE"! I'm 6'2", 160lbs. w/ a 32" waist. I bought the 34" pants and can fit uniform pants under them a bit snug but not tight. The adjustments, comfort, and protection they provide are superior, you won't want to take them off! BUY EM, YOU'LL LOVE EM!!!! |

| If you want to wear them as over-pants (and you probably do), I'd suggest going up 2 sizes. I can comfortably wear 32 jeans but prefer 34s for the slightly baggy fit. I ordered these pants in size 36 and would probably go up one more size. They haven't stretched much at all (not like leather chaps) and it can be a little tough to swing your leg over the bike when these are a bit tight. The knee armor seems good... the thigh/hip padding is pretty thin and sits over the thigh muscle... if they're going to bother putting something in the thigh/hip area I'd prefer something denser and more rigid placed over the hip bone, since that's what's going to impact the road when you go down. But these aren't bad for typical cruising or commuting to work, and they're very warm even without the liner. They're way better than just getting insulated jeans or a snow-pant. If you think you're a street racer or anticipate hitting the asphalt , you probably want something with more serious padding/armor. |

| I ordered 2 sizes up and wear as an over pants, perfect fit. Nice padding and liner will protect you from the elements, and it matches my older xelement jacket too. Nice quality for the price. Kidney zipper did not match my jacket though, but an easy fix if you can sew (maybe quality control issue from mfg.) but works great now that its fixed, might get another if I find another Jacket . |

| I did not buy these as overpants, but I am glad I bought one size up. I wear 32 jeans and I bought these in 34. Hip area fits fine even with the liner in but the waist snaps rids high up right at my middle age spread is pretty snug. The kidney zipper even fit my old Fieldsheer jacket. Very warm with the liner in and surprissingly comfortable in the 80s without the liner. The extra high support at the lower back is great on longer rides. Overall, very comfortable riding pants that offers good protection at an amazing price. Oh, did I mention it's good looking too. |

| I wear size 36 and ordered 38. They are little tight when worn over jeans and with the lining. If lining is out, they fit perfect over jeans. Length is perfect. Overall very good product. Going to ride to CO this weekend. Hopefully, they will hold. |

| The price was so attractive I figured, what the heck, give it a try. Turns out to be an excellent purchase. Very comfortable and more than adequate for keeping the cool fall air off the legs. Like this option much better than chaps. Just be sure to follow the advice about ordering at least one size greater than what you wear. |

| I got these pants for the waterproof capabilities since I did not get the Tri-Tex pants in my size. I went touring in the Himalayas where we met rain in many parts- for about the first hour, it would work okay, but then water would invariably find its way inside through the zipper system and I would end up with wet underwear! I think it is some sort of a design flaw and needs to be looked into.
Apart from this, the pants held up good and I wasnt terribly hot or cold in it- even without the liner. I wear 30 but ordered 34 to wear as overpants- works well only with thinner pants and with jeans, it is quite snug.
Other areas of improvement it could do with:
-the length- it has a tendency to pull up higher than my ankles, almost always.
-the stitching- the stitching is coming off loose where the velcro belt begins on the right side |
