Has anyone tried wearing a pair of Endura Luminite trousers as over trousers?

They seem to be marketed as trousers for wearing on their own rather than overtrousers.

I need something that I can stick over the top of my jeans for the commute. I don't want something that would involve a trouser change in the middle of the street.

Hiya,

CL's hubby here! 😉

Also found out today my waterproof trousers were in fact just trousers during the downpour. 🙄

I have got some Vulpine "epic cotton" waterproof trousers I forgot to try today. That would of course mean a trouser change at work rather than high street displays....

Mrs Storm mentioned you'd been splashing the cash! Decided overshoes are the next purchase after todays little shower. Hopefully my shoes are dry enough by tomorrow.

P.S. check out frog bikes if you've not seen them already. Cheaper and better looking alternative to Islabikes

If it's not torrential something like rainlegs might be an option if you have a decent set of mudguards. http://www.rainlegs.com/en/home

After todays monsoon I think a dry suit might have been a better option!

The problem with any waterproof trousers is that you'll end up with damp trousers from the inside, my comute was only a couple of miles and that was long enough to be "moist" at work for a bit.
