Best piece of kit
18 Jul 2026 by Charlie
This must be one of my best buys. I'm looking to replace these, like for like, as there's a suspicion of some leaking around the crutch area. Then I find I bought these over 9 years ago, and they have provided sterling service throughout many a wet ride. Very well designed, easy to put on and remove, and waterproof to a fault - I can't really mark them down for beginning to show their age after a decade of use.

Great length

At 6ft 4 I struggle to find trousers long enough. These are good. Very long leg and feel like they are robustly made. Not had a chance to test in a rainstorm yet but feeling co side t they should keep me dry.

Lasted about 4 years

My second pair these work well and can be put on and taken off with care while wearing boots due to the extra long zip . I haven’t gone for 5 stars because the price has risen by about £20 since my last pair and since the packaging on these looked at least 5 years old I can’t see the justification for the price hike if they had been obvious new stock I wouldn’t have minded.

Great over-trousers for riding in heavy rain
19 Jun 2026 by Neil B
These do what it says on the tin, and have kept me dry on tour, even in torrential rain.
Easy and quick to put on (without the need to remove boots).
Highly recommended!

Good quality
07 Nov 2024 by Robert J
It's hard to find decent over trouser that are actually designed for people over 4 foot tall who don't live in the country of manufacture, usually in Asia.
Europeans are taller generally and don't take kindly to riding round with the bottom of their leg exposed because their waterproofs have creeped up !!
No chance of that happening with these beauties. I think the designer was European and actually rode a motorcycle ?

Bargain

Giving these 4 out 5 as a previous rider said they didn't ride up the ankle but on my CBF they do…
Other than that, for the price: banging! Far more waterproof than my Rocha equivalents - which aren't waterproof at all.
I'm 6'2 & 32" waist and got the XL - fit well over bike jeans: Not warm though - in proper rain they feel cold but you stay dry which is the aim :)

Excellent waterproof trousers
03 Aug 2023 by Anonymous
I bought these because I had to replace my seven year old Held over trousers which have been excellent. I hope these prove to be as long lasting.
I have several other pieces of Held kit which do tend to be quite expensive but all have been high quality, durable and worth the extra expense.

Worth every penny.

These, without question, are the best motorcycle over trousers (for the money) I've ever owned. Great long leg, (I'm 6'4") easy to put on and remove. The zip and velcro work perfectly.
I wore them during last week's extreme wet and windy weather, on a journey of over 200 miles involving Motorway, A Road and unclassified roads. They were brilliant.

Nice and long
07 Oct 2021 by Tony
Not seen rain yet but look to be good quality. Lined and reasonable weight. The leg length is perfect for myself and i would estimate around 35" leg. Leg opening is OK but pocket at front is weird and might get in the way a bit. I am 38" waist and the XXXL is about right. Think this is EU sizing

Daddy Long Legs

Finally a pair of water proof trousers that don't ride up over my boots when I sit on my bike ( VFR 800 ) These a extra long in the leg and work a treat. I have previously purchased 3 other types of water proofs and none were long enough !
Well done Held

Well designed overtrousers
19 Aug 2021 by Colin S
I bought my first pair of these for daily commuting several years ago as they were well thought about by designers.
The knee length zip on the legs mean stopping to put them on over boots was simple. No more dancing round in circles trying to force the boot to go through.
They have never let in any water which is a big plus point.
There is a pouch inside the front which is handy to put my phone in (when textile jacket pockets are not waterproof.
A thoroughly well made and waterproof garment.
I leant against a hot exhaust briefly and quickly pulled away, only to see they hadn't melted.
I highly recommend these overtrousers.

Long Legs
03 Nov 2020 by Steve
I am slim 6ft 2in 12 stone and they fit really well. The legs were long enough easily for me. I have only used them once in the rain and they kept me dry. I purchased Medium size.
Very happy with this purchase,and the usual prompt service from Sportsbikeshop.

Very solid Held Aqua Over Pants
10 Jul 2020 by Tomas
High quality, easy to put on, thanks to the long zips. So far totally wind and water proof but pretty heavy, as they are made of two layers. In hot weather it can be an issue.
There is an inside pocket-bag into which you can fold and squeeze them in. Not a simple task but then you have fairly small (size of two, three fists) packet to stow.
Very good for the price, even if they lack of any reflective surfaces.

Nicely made

Good quality and a good price. Long leg zips make getting on/off over boots easy but could do with a tighter strap at the ankle. So far 100% waterproof.

Over pants
28 Oct 2019 by Michael H
This is my second pair of these the first ones lasted about 3 years which is good as they probably covered about 20,000 miles. Length is great I'm 6 foot 3 the internal pocket thing is useless and can get in the way when putting them on. I would definitely recommend them.

Questions and Answers
Is there a size guide for this product
February 13, 2018Previous customer feedback would suggest that you would need to go up one size on your normal sizing, to allow for your motorcycle jeans. For example, an XL size would be a 34 inch waist, rather than large.
