Not too heavy, fits well but very overpriced

I sized up for these and the waist was ok, but the legs were too tight - don't you dare to have muscle or curves on your legs if you want to wear these!

These come up quite small (I ordered a size up and still didn't fit) and are also a low rise fitting which boggles my brain why you'd want that when on the bike.

Great lightweight protection for summer mesh jacket. Great service for the team who replaced my damaged one.

I’ve been riding in the recent hot weather and these motorbike trousers have genuinely impressed me. The side vents make a noticeable difference when you’re moving, keeping things that bit cooler without compromising protection. The trousers feel very well made, with solid armour and quality stitching throughout.

They do come up slightly larger than some other bike jeans, though not enough to be a problem. They’re also quite heavy, so I may use a set of braces with them — but I’ve done that with other brands too.

Overall, I’m very pleased with them. They look good, feel robust, and are comfortable enough that I’ll be wearing them a lot during the warmer months.

It fits snugly without crushing your head like some of the open faced ones I tried, almost retro in its simple lines
