Great!
I have a free day to do anything I like and its chucking it down
My Humvee's rain resistance has finally had it so I need new trousers
Any ideas before I pop to the shops?
I guess the Humvees were always a compromise so this time I want something 3/4 or full length I can go MTBing in whilst the weather and mud do their best to put others off
Cheers
Alturas waterproof 3/4 are right good and should be widely available.
can't beat Gore waterproof shorts.. and IIRC they have a 3/4 too. personaly I use Gore shorts + knee warmers in this sort of weather. and when it gets really cold then I bring out the full length Gore Alp-X trousers which has the bonus of keeping boots dry inside.
another vote for altura extreme - full trousers or 3/4 length, i've got both
If you are going to get full length go for the Endura Venturi Event pants. I bought them about a month ago and I use them everyday for commuting as well as trail riding and they are really good. Well stiched, well made and seem very strong. Waterproof and windproof, cant ask for more.
Altura Attacks on Merlin cheap right now...
