I must keep an eye on those "Adventure Pants." I also have to keep a rein on my spending, but the Alitta pants I got at GW t'other day made me think that perhaps I'd like something a bit heavier than the Rock Bros. Alas, the Alittas are L, and, after riding in them yesterday and finding it hard despite the velcro shin strap to keep the right leg off the chain, they'll go to my bigger little brother, and just perhaps I'll get the REIs or perhaps the Alittas in Med.
I owned a pair of MUSA knickers and the original pants. I can put up with no zip fly, but I found the waist cut far too low -- uncomfortable when I ride on the hoods. But I did like the look - trim but not tight -- and the fabric weight was just right.
