Keeping a keen eye on this - I had the last version they did and the arse started to wear out after 3 months of riding, which was more than a bit annoying.
I've got the previous 3L version as well, they (and ALL waterproof trousers it seems) are too short in the leg by a good few inches, which makes for wet feet as the water runs down your socks. Agree with the waist not fitting properly either, reckon they need to be higher in the waist and lower in the ankle to fit properly.
Had mine for a year or so now and no wear issues mind you, so at least that is ok
