I followed a similar path and got a pair of "army" (not sure which army) wool pants at good 'ol Andy & Bax in Portland. Heavy duty wool and buttons - took them to a local seamstress and had them converted to knickers - all in they were about $55 - they are very good for the winter but a bit of

These look fantastic ! Don't know about the "slim" fit though . I prefer pants loose in the trunk area , no restrictions ! So I doubt these would fit the bill. For those , if any , that know of the now discontinued Ex Officio Amphi pants and shorts , the fit of these is sublime.

Thanks Dave! I was planning on the EL Switchbacks since I am loving the Babyshoe Pass EL's. I guess 49+mm would be really pushing my clearance. I might get away with it without my fenders, but then I think I'll wait until the rainy season passes before I try that. I wish that Compass would put

Looks like riv knows their knicker audience judging by the many fans. I dislike the roominess/bagginess and long length of the musa knickers. The more I'm paying for clothes the more fitted/slim I expect them to be, to a point :p. And knickers should not be "floods" On Sunday, October 4,
