Quite fancy a new pair of these breeks for general outdoors wear?
Anybody on here got them and could comment on sizing?
I've heard they are quite tight but not sure if this regards slim fit or need to size up?
I'm normally a 34W

They should be true to size, I have a pair myself. Not sure if they are a "2" or not though.

I have a pair, not sure if they are the 2.

The fit is pretty true to measurements. I have a pair of 34 Long.
I've just compared to a pair of 33x36 501s the 34 waist is a bit larger as expected, the leg is surprisingly long about 36.5
The fit is about half a centimetre wider than the 501s on the thighs but they feel a bit narrower - don't know why.

For mountain biking I stitched in the lower leg as it was too flappy. The seat is a bit slippy on my saddle at the start of a ride, and I can fit small pads (race face charge) under them. Not tried any bigger pads. I've got skinny sparrow like legs though.

I like them for ridin in if the temp is below about 8. Would be nice to have a few vents but for the price I can't complain.
The pockets all have zips but aren't huge.

I take a 34L normally but two other pairs of regatta trousers I've got are 33L so I went for the 33L in the the questra...I find them pretty tight. But the 33L was half the price! 😂 Just have to lose some Xmas belly

They are brilliant trews and that's a great price.

Regatta stuff has really moved on from the 1990s Millets boil-in-the-bag specials.

33R bought, probably needed 34 but sold out. Needed to lose more weight anyway!

Arrived today. Not bad at all for the price, nice slim fit though maybe just a touch longer than i'd like, but cracking for dog walking in crappy weather i reckon...more sizes still available in the blue, though all regular lengths. The ones i got in black are more dark charcoal grey, very stealthy 😉
